Dana says nobody received a pay bump to take their new matchups tonight.
Kevin Holland dancing in the hallway about getting more money yesterday makes that statement seem strange.

The actual video in the tweet above is from Holland at UFC Austin, however the text in the tweet would lead one to believe he was compensated more for fighting Chimaev.

Furthermore, Nate Diaz just said "I lost count" when asked how much more he was paid to stay on this event.

Q: "So none of the money changed for them to switch the fights? They just took the deals going in?"
Dana: "No. Everybody has a deal."

Technically it wouldn’t be a pay bump for the show/win if he just gave them all PPV points and made them sign an NDA

Maybe its the specific wording, like nobody got an increase in their contractual pay but they all got some one-time bonuses for this event.

NDA or they’re simply just not going to make that public with an extra payout. They got taken care of - as much as people like hating on Dana.

They didn't get a pay bump because they all had their "deals" (Dana's words) which I'm assuming ment they all had conditions in their contracts that would specify a raise in pay if the fights were changed.

Dana White is hands down the biggest liar in all of MMA promotion. He may be an awesome promotor but he lies CONSTANTLY.
