    MMA Junkie posted this little story today which finally gives us some insight into how much fighters can make from sponsors (short and banner logos, specifically).

    Dynamic Fastener, out of Raytown, Mo., typically pays fighters $1,500 for advertising. I don't know if this includes anything other than in-fight branding. For some companies it could go beyond that.

    In some cases they are willing to pay out more for higher profile fighters in higher profile fights. Company president Kevin Perz says they gave Miesha Tate $6,500 at UFC 168 and offered her a $10,000 win bonus just because he doesn't like Ronda Rousey.
