MVP will host its first MMA card in collaboration with Netflix at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. The promotion guarantees a $40,000 purse to every fighter, avoiding a show/win payment structure. In addition to the guaranteed purse, each fighter can earn a performance bonus with different levels depending on the fighter. MVP is positioning itself as a strong competitor to the UFC, including featuring Ronda Rousey, who is fighting Gina Carano on the card. The UFC typically pays entry-level fighters $12,000 to show and $12,000 to win, making MVP’s guaranteed amount a significant increase. Whether MVP can sustain this model remains uncertain.
