UFC 276: Adesanya vs Cannonier will be live from Las Vegas, Nevada this Saturday night. In this article, we’ll go over the UFC fight pay, salaries, and payouts for the UFC 276 fight card this weekend.<\/b><\/p>\n
UFC 276 takes place this Saturday, July 2nd from the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The event is headlined by a double main event, as both the UFC middleweight and UFC men’s featherweight titles are on the line. Nigerian-born, New Zealand MMA superstar Israel Adesanya will defend his UFC middleweight gold against Jared Cannonier, while the co-main event will see the trilogy title bout between current UFC men’s featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovki, and former champion and future UFC Hall of Famer, ‘Blessed’ Max Holloway.<\/p>\n
The former champion comes into Saturday’s bout having earned a performance bonus in four of his last six UFC appearances. With the 2020 meeting between Holloway and Volkanovski hailed as one of the best fights of the year, there’s no question that the trilogy bout will produce an action-packed title fight worthy of another stack of performance bonus paychecks for the two legendary UFC featherweights.<\/p>\n
