Both men are expected to make the biggest purse of their respective careers.

For Ciryl Gane, he is expected to earn upward of $500,000 for this fight against the great ‘Bones’.

Well, the answer to that question entirely depends on who wins the fight. Both men are expected to receive a different fight purse depending on which man has their hand raised. As you can probably expect, it is likely that Jon Jones will earn far more if he is to win than if the Frenchman claims victory tonight.
If Jon Jones wins, he fight purse could be heavily enhanced, that is for sure. Jones’ fight purse is said to be around $3m, regardless of whether he wins or loses the bout.

If it’s Ciryl Gane who gets his hand raised at the end of the fight, he too could earn far more money than his official fight purse states. He is expected to earn $500,000 for the fight alone, with a further $1 million up for grabs if he wins the fight, his PPV share and money from his various sponsorship deals. The 32-year-old could earn well over $1.5 million for this one fight alone against Jon Jones if indeed he is successful. What an incentive that is!
