How Much Does Kevin Holland Get Paid per UFC Fight?

Kevin Holland vs. Michal Oleksiejczuk is going to be a pretty important fight at UFC 302. Both fighters need a win, and ‘Trailblazer’ will seek to avoid a third consecutive loss. Fighting out of Fort Worth, Texas, Holland has made a name for himself in the promotion as one of the most active fighters. With a record of 25 victories and 11 losses, Holland boasts a good record. But does the UFC pay him well?

‘Trailblazer’ has been with the promotion for a long time. Starting as a normal fighter in Dana White‘s Contender series, Holland is a well-known figure in the industry. Ahead of his fight against the Bellator sensation, let us have a look at Kevin Holland’s fight purses and payouts.

What is Kevin Holland’s salary?

Kevin Holland has been one of the most consistent fighters in the UFC. ‘TrailBlazer’ has earned most of his fortune from UFC fights, endorsements, and prize money. The 31-year-old fighter has an estimated net worth of $1 million. He has endorsements from Hayabusa Combat, Jimmy Bars, Rule One Proteins, MyBookie, and Beer Roofing. Now, let’s have a look at the amount of money UFC pays to ‘TrialBlazer’

The UFC pays the ‘Trailblazer’ handsomely, with each of his last three fights earning him more than $200,000 per outing. To be specific, Holland’s bout against Santiago Ponzinibbio got him a massive $316,000 and his fight against Michael Chiesa got him $ $356,000. Holland’s base salary has been on the rise recently. For now, the promotion pays him $150,000 as the base salary and the other income depends upon his fights. In his last fight against Michael ‘Venom’ Page, which he lost, he earned a reported sum of $171,000. But he seems to care not too much about money even though he’s earned some big bucks over the years, and he would attack the UFC debutant for being money-minded.

Holland believes Michael Page only cares about  money

Michael ‘Venom’ Page signed with the UFC last year. As soon as he was signed, Dana White set him up to have a matchup against Kevin Holland. The former Bellator fighter would dominate Holland after raising some eyebrows for signing with the UFC at the age of 37. But before that fight, Holland claimed to believe that ‘Venom’ signed with the promotion only for money.

“Always being a fan of mixed martial arts, seeing a guy like Michael Page do his thing, it’s always been amazing. (He’s) coming over to the UFC a little bit later than I expected him to ever do, kind of thought he never would. But, it’s nice to see him coming over and it’s nice to be the welcoming party… At the tail end of your career, you just want to get paid, so, obviously, he must be getting a pretty big bag to come over here and fight a guy like me,” said Holland to ESPN.
