Former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen said that the biggest fee in his professional career was for the rematch with Brazilian fighter Anderson Silva.

That fight took place in July of 2012 at the UFC 148 tournament. In that fight Sonnen was defeated by TKO in the second round.

The biggest payday of my career was $8.8 million for one night. I took $8.8 million for my second fight with Anderson Silva. That was in 2012, and I'll tell you, the numbers are bigger than a lot of people think.
