Now here's a salary that is probably pretty justified. Dominick Cruz had been out almost three years. He came back strong and shocked the MMA world by knocking out Takeya Mizugaki, and earned $100,000 to do it. That includes his $50,000 win bonus. To add to that, Cruz also took in $50,000 with a Performance of the Night award. Overall, not a bad night's work for Cruz in his first fight back. He'll likely get a title shot against T.J. Dillashaw next.
