The event took place at The Palms Las Vegas and aired live on Spike TV and the card was put together in about 6 weeks to go specifically against the Affliction - Banned Card. Total disclosed payroll for the event was $623,000. Now, the usual disclaimer: the figures do not include deductions for items such as insurance, licenses and taxes. Additionally, the figures do not include money paid by sponsors, which can oftentimes be a substantial portion of a fighter's income.

They also do not include any other "locker-room" or special bonuses the UFC oftentimes pays. In other words, these are simply base salaries reported to the commission and do not reflect entire compensation packages for the event.
