In his seven-year-long UFC career, Allen has made a lot of money. His total career earnings are estimated to be around $585,000. Today we will look closely at Arnold Allen’s career earnings from his fighting career in the UFC.
Arnold Allen’s UFC earnings
After competing in various organizations, Allen made his UFC debut against Alan Omer, who he submitted in the third round and took home a ‘Performance of the Night (POTN)’ bonus. He reportedly earned $10,000 to show and $10,000 to win plus the $50,000 POTN bonus.
In his second UFC appearance against Yaotzin Meza back in 2016, Allen earned his second consecutive victory by dominating Meza for three rounds earning a unanimous decision. For that fight, Allen earned $12,000 to show and $12,000 to win.
Allen’s earned a similar amount of money, between $30,000 to $50,000, for his victorious performances against Makwan Amirkhani and Jordan Rinaldi. Allen then submitted Mads Burnel in 2018 and earned his second ‘Performance of the Night’ that took his total payout that night close to $100k.
As per some reports Allen has comfortably made more than $100,000 in his last three fights, many even reporting his total payout going past $150k in his last POTN performance against Dan Hooker.
Calvin Kattar is by far the toughest competition Allen will face inside the octagon as Kattar has shared the octagon with some highly experienced fighters like Josh Emmet, Max Holloway, Jeremy Stephens, and many more. Although Kattar has lost two out of his last three fights, he is still one of the most dangerous fighters in the featherweight division.
