10 Highest Paid Fighters At UFC 178

3. Donald Cerrone

Oh Cowboy. Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone fights more than most major stars in the UFC - and make no mistake, the guy is now a legit star in the lightweight division. He seems to spend that cash as quickly as he makes it, mind you, and is always looking for a fight. This was Cerrone's fourth fight of 2014, and he earned $126,000 including his win bonus. Not satisfied, Cerrone is still hoping to fight once or twice more this year, despite talk of him having earned a title shot. And that's why we love the guy.
