Harrison Leads Salaries At PFL 7
It’s no surprise that Kayla Harrison was the highest-paid fighter at PFL 7 this past weekend at the Mandalay Bay.
Harrison, who like her other female lightweights, only fought once on October 11th, where the winning male competitors had to fight twice to make it to their respective finals, earned $124,850 for her first round submission win over Bobbi Jo Dalziel.
The two-time Olympic gold medalist earned $100,000 in base salary and another $25,000 for winning the fight and moving on to face Larissa Pacheco in the $1 million world championship finals.
David Michaud followed behind Harrison, earning $25,000 per fight, along with an additional $50,000 for winning both his quarterfinal and semi=final fights.
