The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 14 Finale payouts and salaries for those who competed at the "Bisping vs. Miller" Spike TV event this past Saturday night (Dec. 3, 2011) from the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, were released to MMAmania.com earlier today by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC).
Michael Bisping came into "Sin City" with a few extra pounds and will leave with a few extra thousand. The brash Brit will "Count" the $425,000 he made for beating the brakes off Jason Miller in the night's main event, one that only pocketed "Mayhem" $45,000 in defeat.
TUF 14 champions John Dodson and Diego Brandao made the standard 8/8 post-show pocket change, raking in $16,000 apiece for their winning performances. That, coupled with the 40-grand they secured in post-fight bonuses and they'll have a lot to celebrate this holiday season.
Fellow TUF champ Anthony Ferguson (season 13) came in at number three with $30,000 for convincing the judges he was a better fighter than Yves Edwards, who contributes to the Thugjitsu retirement fund with $16,000.
Here is the complete list of TUF 14 Finale salaries and payouts:

Wonder why Bisping is always letting everyone know he’s happy? Guy bags a good 500k a fight, while you kids struggle to buy the milk from the corner shop. Guys a boss, like me.

Seriously is there a shortage of cows or something wtf
It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.
by Jesse Holland on Dec 5, 2011 3:39 PM EST up reply actions
shortage of corn and grain
part of the shortage is due to ethanol, part due to the flooding in the plains earlier in the year, and part goes to higher prices overseas, so export contracts were signed.
Kind of funny that it was illegal for me to buy the milk from the farmer down the street who sold his milk to the bottling company for $1.25 a gallon, but I could buy it from the bottling company for $3.00 a gallon.
NNR is going to pick both Nogs on Saturday and become irrelevant to the money pool. Watch.
this is much better than the cow fart joke I was going to do.

methane, not fart.
Indian farmers (meaning in India) sell their cow poop to the local methane plant for almost as much as they pay for grain.
Milk costs pennies in India and they drink right from the tap. They can’t eat steak, though, so it is probably an even trade…

how many threads are plastered with bisping gifs? even sonnen threads don’t muster up as many comments as a bisping one nowadays. he’s probably the most hated ufc fighter. europeans want to see him win, north americans want to see him get his ass kicked. either way people want to see him.

I was disgusted at that decision. You know that face you make when you smell a fart in the elevator? That’s the face I wore for quite some time that night.

Not the same face at all

Agreed
Love him or hate him, he put up an entertaining TUF performance and backed it up with a brutal beatdown of his opponent. I don’t think i’ve seen him as motivated for a fight. He was definetly looking forward to excorcising some of the Hendo demons with a good performance.

I was one of the only ones before the fight who said that Miller didn’t even belong in the UFC, let alone against Bisping. So many boneheads thought Miller actually had a chance lol
"Why am I here? Why does my mind have wings? Why do blue midgets hit me with fish?!" - The Tick
and you were right to say that, a fighter who can’t get in shape and learn to control an adrenaline dump or whatever bullcrap that was doesn’t deserve to be fighting at the top in my opinion. what gets me though is how so many people said Miller was going to beat Bisping easily etc etc and now he lost badly they are all making excuses like oh he was never good anyway blah blah blah. That is my rant over for the night.
The Dragon is coming.
You're absolutely right
The people who hate Bisping hate him with such a passion that it completely clouds the part of the brain that makes people rational.

Actaully anyone has a chance against anyone in MMA. If it had been a 1 round fight I would have given it to Miller. He just got carwinitis…

i actually went against my brain after the weigh ins
and switched my pick to mayhem 4th round sub. No way did I think Mayhem would be the one to gas, figured if Mayhem could get through round 3 it was his fight. Thats what I get for over thinking things

Welcome to the UFC.
"Why am I here? Why does my mind have wings? Why do blue midgets hit me with fish?!" - The Tick
like stated above
he made more than Hendo & Shogun did combined at UFC 139 ($415,000) and Wandy made $200K for his win while Dung Le made $350K for the loss.
It is sickening to see how much Pisbing made….it is not like he is a star and that much of a draw. Only in the UK so perhaps he was partially funded by the anglo-saxon’s.

Bisping is worth his weight in hate.
…. God he is the most hated fighter in MMA among the hardcores. I think he blew a fuse again, he’s just now directing it where it should be the fans… keep fliping us off, I’ll bet against him at the right time. Bisping is going to make me money win or lose.

Yeah Bisping obviously gets compensated for being the face of UK MMA
and it seems the UFC rewards him big time. I kinda feel like they protect him too.
Dan Miller, Jason Miller, Jorge Rivera and Akiyama don’t seem like the opponents that get you to a title shot…
Sorry buddy
but Lesnar kind of set a precedent about whats needed before getting a title shot. If
"Why am I here? Why does my mind have wings? Why do blue midgets hit me with fish?!" - The Tick
Nah not a really good comparison
Lesnar was a huge name prior to the UFC so the UFC wanted to capitalize on that. On the other hand, the UFC turned Bisping into a star to build their business in the UK. While Lesnar got the title shot way early with his limited MMA background, they have slowly brought Bisping along and he still hasn’t had a title shot. I think we can say Lesnar has fought the tougher opponents (don’t forget he was slated to fight JDS as well). It’s funny to me that once you become Champion, Zuffa is putting pressure on you to defend your belt as much as possible against arguably the best opponents. Who has a better situation than Bisping in the UFC to fight a guy like Mayhem Miller who looked like total dogshit and get paid that much for it? People were complaining about what Cung Lee got paid but he ended up getting his ass kicked for it.
