UFC 196 payouts show Conor McGregor earned ten times as much as Miesha Tate

Conor McGregor may have been submitted over the weekend, but his takings from UFC 196 were second to none.

The Notorious made himself a cool $1m in spite of his defeat, a record for a fighter in the UFC. Although there was no win bonus for the bout, we don't think Nate Diaz will mind all that much as he took home an impressive $500,000, according to Sherdog. Things were not quite as lucrative for the winner of the other main event, as Miesha Tate's $92,000 paled in comparison to Holly Holm's payout of $500,000 despite 'The Preacher's Daughter' losing her title. Amazingly, Diego Sanchez picked up $150,000 for his unanimous decision win over Jim Miller in the preliminary rounds. Diaz and Tate are due to get an extra $50,000 for their performance of the night bonuses, while McGregor and Diaz will share $100,000 evenly for their part of the fight of the night.

The full earnings are as follows:

Nate Diaz: $500,000 vs. Conor McGregor: $1,000,000. Miesha Tate: $92,000 (includes $46,000 win bonus) vs. Holly Holm: $500,000.
