Paige VanZant makes a lot more $$$ on Insta than UFC.
UFC stars like Ronda Rousey have headlined fights and earned millions. But even stars like VanZant and other female fighters earn significantly less than many male competitors, even if they win their matches.
At the UFC 241 event earlier this month, the highest-paid man, Stipe Miocic, earned a flat fee of $750,000. The highest-paid woman, Hannah Cifers earned $28,000--half of which was a bonus she received for winning the fight, according to Forbes.

What does it say about this particular equal pay argument when after reading the quoted text my first question was "Who is Hannah Cifers?"

I hadn't hard of her either. I've heard of Paige and Ronda. But I don't follow UFC, so I have no idea how relatively popular women are vs men, etc.

According to PPV buy numbers, Rhonda and Brock Lesnar deserved the biggest money.
Everyone else seems to be meh. The UFC just doesn't have any big personalities, and those that are on the cusp belong to juicers or complete assholes that people hate.

Connor McGregor went after MG Kelly at some music awards last night.
An actual fighter against a pretend tough guy would be awesome to witness.
