Conor McGregor je na UFC-u 196 postao prvi UFC-ov borac s milijunskom (osnovnom) plaćom (1 milijun), no već četiri PPV UFC-a kasnije prestigao ga je Brock Lesnar, s 2,5 milijuna dolara.

Ipak, Irac se vraća i vodstvo, jer na UFC-u 202 je zaradio tri milijuna dolara, dok je njegov protivnik, poraženi Nate Diaz, zaradio dva milijuna dolara. Uz to, dvojac je dobio i 50 tisuća dolara teški bonus, kao i "Rumble Johnson" zbog OVOG finiša. Bonus je dobio i Donald Cerrone, koji je zaustavio Ricka Storyja u drugoj rundi.

Donald Cerrone has always had the tools to be lightweight champ and there's also no one at 170 he can't hang with. https://t.co/u6cOyHxppQ
