Trending
As mentioned earlier GSP fought in 27 matches. So, how does someone who just fought in just 9 make this list ahead of him? Well, it becomes an easy answer when that someone is Brock Lesnar.
The Beast Incarnate has been a big deal no matter where he has gone. There was a huge amount of buzz about Lesnar's decision to move into the realms of MMA and to sign with the UFC. With the amount of attention on Lesnar, there was very little doubt that he would be paid handsomely for his time.

What a lot of people perhaps didn't bank on, was how well Lesnar would do in the sport.
Lesnar won five out of his first six fights to become the UFC Heavyweight Champion and made a lot of money doing so. Despite two more defeats, Lesnar returned to pro-wrestling with his head held high and his pockets considerably heavier than when he arrived in MMA.
Then the return happened at UFC 200. Despite his initial victory over Mark Hunt at the event being overturned to a No Contest following Lesnar's doping violation, he still made a mind-boggling amount of money.
His overall figure for his measly nine fights? $5 million.
