UFC star Paige VanZant wants equal pay. She says she makes more money through sponsored social media posts than she does in competitions.
The mixed martial artist said she makes more money through sponsored social media posts than she does in competitions. "With endorsements, I make way more money sitting at home posting pictures on Instagram than I do fighting," she said in an appearance on"Ariel Helwani's MMA Show." "If I were to stop everything I do outside of fighting and just fight, I would be at a loss. By a long shot.
Now, she wants UFC officials to up female fighters' salaries across the board. "All of us should be paid more in general, especially women and especially based on your star power." UFC stars like Ronda Rousey have headlined fights and earned millions. But even stars like VanZant and other female fighters earn significantly less than many male competitors, even if they win their matches.
