UFC fighter pay has been a hot topic recently with some people saying fighters aren’t paid enough, while other say that the company’s compensation strategy is fair. The talk got so heated at one point that UFC president Dana White said he considered doing away with traditional Fight of the Night and discretionary locker room bonuses. He recently confirmed, however, that after talking with fighters the UFC would continue its current pay structure, including bonuses. “We’re not doing away with the Fight of the Night bonuses,” White declared . “After I said (we might end the bonuses), we had a lot of feedback from fighters and fighters want the finish bonuses. They want the finish bonuses and fighters want the discretionary bonuses to stay the same.” One fighter that is surely happy to hear that is Chan Sung Jung, the Korean Zombie .
