These days, many UFC fighters have discovered multiple avenues to earn some extra money. While some rely on sponsorships, brand deals, and their YouTube channel, there are others who are making tons of money through OnlyFans. Furthermore, a popular UFC fighter who recently twerked in the cage has made more money from her OnlyFans than her recent fight.
Ailin Perez is quickly becoming one of the most popular fighters in the UFC. The Argentinian fighter is coming off her second win in the organization at UFC Vegas 82. Recently, she made an appearance on the latest episode of MMA Hour. Furthermore, she revealed very shocking information regarding her OnlyFans account.

While talking to Perez, Ariel Helwani asked about her monthly income via Only Fans. The reply from Perez would shock a lot of MMA fans. “On a month-to-month basis, it really depends… But since Thursday to now, it’s been over $30K,” said Perez and her translator. However, the shocking part is that this amount is more than what she made from her fight.

Furthermore, she claimed that her OnlyFans income will keep on multiplying each time she fights in the UFC. When Ariel asked her about her fight purse from UFC Vegas 82, she had a surprising reply. “So before any sponsorship, she (Perez) got paid $24K for the fight,” said Perez and her translator. However, she claimed that this low amount was due to this being her first contract.
When Ariel Helwani asked Perez if she would continue with her OnlyFans even if the UFC decided to ban the platform, just like the WWE did in 2022, she declined and chose her fighting career over the popular platform. “No, I’m gonna keep fighting in the UFC, not even a question,” said Perez. Furthermore, she said that representing her country is more important for her than OnlyFans.
Ailin Perez opens up about her brawl with Joselyne Edwards at the UFC PI
During her post-fight interview after UFC Vegas 82, Ailin Perez revealed that she jumped in the UFC PI just a few days before her fight. While she claimed that she did not remember who attacked her, it was later revealed to be UFC Bantamweight, Joselyne Edwards.
However, Ailin decided to open up about the incident during her appearance on the MMA Hour. She confirmed that the attack happened on November 14, 2023, just a few days before her match. Furthermore, Perez revealed that she had cordial interactions with Edwards before the day of the attack.

Perez told Helwani that while she was getting her photo shoot done after the training, Joseylne Edwards approached her and started talking trash. Furthermore, when she asked Joselyne about what her problem was, Edwards told her that Ailin commented too much on her Instagram.
“Look if you want to fight, we can fight with the UFC, you talk to the UFC and I’ll accept the fight but we’re not gonna fight here today so please leave,” said Ailin Perez to Edwards. Furthermore, when Ailin’s coach tried to interfere by calling Joselyne “nervous”, she decided to attack Perez and gave her a black eye.
Ailín Pérez message to Joselyne Edwards:
What is your problem? Because at the end of the day, I offered to do the fight in the UFC and instead of wanting to compete with me in a professional sports manner, you tried to assault me. So, what is it that you want?

“I couldn’t really see what was going on because I got hit in the eye…I tried to grab her to try to hold on to her…But I never threw a punch,” said Ailin Perez and her translator. Furthermore, she explained that her coach put Joselyne Edwards in a rear-naked choke to stop the assault. Finally, Perez called out Edwards to accept a fight in a professional manner inside the octagon.
