UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey continues to stake her claim as one of the most dominant fighters on the planet, man or woman. Rousey scored the fastest championship victory in UFC history on Saturday night, submitting Cat Zingano in the UFC 184 main event via her patented armlock. Surprisingly, however, it wouldn’t be Rousey that topped the list of UFC 184 fighter salaries, as that honor went to Jake Ellenberger . Ellenberger earned $136,000 to Rousey’s $130,000 for his main card victory over Josh Koscheck . > SEE ALSO: Ronda Rousey Sets Record with 14-Second Armbar The UFC 184 payouts, however, are only the publicly disclosed bout salaries and do not take into account pay-per-view percentages and other earnings. With such other financials figured in, Rousey is rumored to make well into seven figures for her record-setting victory in Los Angeles.
