Rousey will still most likely walk away with the largest purse tonight. She doubles he guaranteed money by winning, could earn a 50k performance bonus and she receives a percentage of PPV buys. Not to mention outside endorsement deals and the Reebok pay out.
A loss will seriously hurt her pockets though, which makes her low guaranteed figure so astonishing.
