During her post-fight press conference, Rousey revealed that she earned more than the $2.2 million because she was also paid for promotional activities for the fight.
“I was compensated, not just for my fighting services. I also was promoting this event as well, so I think it’s literally on the contract that I’m not supposed to tell people..I’m very happy and very grateful and me and my husband are gonna go house shopping in Hawaii after this.”
