2023 PFL 6 fighter pay: Shane Burgos pockets six-figure purse after move from UFC
PFL returned to Atlanta this past Thursday for the third of three shows in three consecutive weeks at Overtime Elite Arena.
2023 PFL 6 featured final regular season bouts at lightweight and welterweight, as well as three showcase fights. In the main event, 2022 PFL lightweight champion Olivier Aubin-Mercier knocked out Dana White’s Contender Series alum Anthony Romero.
Other names on the card included former UFC fighters Shane Burgos and Clay Collard, as well as past PFL championship winners Raush Manfio, Natan Schulte, Sadibou Sy and Magomed Magomedkerimov.
MMA Junkie acquired a list of the 24 fighters’ disclosed payouts Monday from the Georgia Athletic and Entertainment Commission. The amounts do not include bonuses, sponsorships or any other discretionary payments.
Five fighters topped the list at $100,000, while all other fighters received five-figure or four-figure payouts. Among them was Burgos, who left the UFC as a free agent to sign with the PFL. Friday, Burgos pocketed a six-figure flat purse against Yamato Nishikawa.
