In addition to the exciting bouts, du Plessis and Chimaev's financial compensation has piqued the interest of both fans and insiders. Here is a breakdown of what the UFC 319 main card fighters might have earned from UFC 319 as per industry estimations and fighters' most recent reported payouts.

Chimaev, the new middleweight champion, defeated Dricus du Plessis in a lopsided, grappling-heavy victory to take home the 185-pound belt, capping up Saturday's event at United Center in Chicago.
