UFC Fight Night 94 went down last night (Sat., Sept. 17, 2016) inside State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, Texas, and now it's time to see who went home with the largest slice of the Reebok sponsorship pie.

Dustin Poirier earned one of the top two highest payouts, taking home a $15,000 sponsorship check from the sports apparel giant following his first-round knockout loss to Michael Johnson (video highlights here). Speaking of "The Menace," he took home $10,000 in victory.

Evan Dunham -- who defeated Rick Glenn in an all-out war -- took home the other $15,000 check from Reebok, to add to his $50,000 "Fight of the Night" bonus.

So, how are payouts determined?

According to the revamped payout structure (see it), the more fights you have combined with UFC and the now-defunct World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) and Strikeforce promotions, the more coin you have for your combat sports piggy bank.

And the less fights you have under the ZUFFA banner... well, the less you get. If you have a problem with the structure, take it up with UFC, not Reebok.

According to the report, fighters will also receive royalty and payments up to 20-30 percent of any UFC-related merchandise sold that bears his or her likeness. That's a great way for the Internet "morons" to help the cause.
