UFC 334 goes down at the Mecca this Saturday.
The UFC heads to Madison Square Garden in New York City this Saturday, November 14, for UFC 334, featuring two high-stakes championship bouts at the top of the card. The event will see the promotion return to the iconic venue with a 13-fight lineup.
In the main event, Ciryl Gane is set to make his first defence of the Heavyweight Championship against Josh Hokit. Gane was elevated to undisputed champion after Tom Aspinall opted to relinquish the title following the eye injury he suffered during his title defense against Gane.

Ciryl Gane & Josh Hokit’s estimated payout
Per UFC Calendar, Ciryl Gane took home an estimated $760,000 for his recent interim title bout against Alex Pereira at UFC Freedom 250. However, his highest purse came during UFC 321 when he headlined the card against Tom Aspinall for the aforementioned title match.
Gane took home an estimated $1,264,000 for the title match and is expected to command an even higher purse as he will be going into the fight as the reigning champion.
Meanwhile, Josh Hokit, who rose through the ranks in a very short amount of time, earned an estimated $357,000 for his dominant win over Derrick Lewis at UFC Freedom 250. This was Hokit’s highest pay in his short UFC career.
With Hokit’s profile continuing to rise since his last fight, headlining a major event at Madison Square Garden and competing for the Heavyweight Championship, he is expected to earn a significantly higher payday.
Kayla Harrison & Amanda Nunes’ estimated payout
Similar to Hokit, Kayla Harrison has relatively limited experience inside the UFC Octagon. However, her impressive resume outside the promotion, particularly in judo, has established her as a major name in combat sports.
Despite having competed in just three UFC fights, Harrison has already captured the Championship, making her rise to the top of the division remarkably quick. Harrison took home an estimated $364,000 in her last fight against Julianna Pena, where she captured the World title. For her first title defense against the MMA G.O.A.T., Harrison is expected to earn a significantly higher purse.
On the other hand, Amanda Nunes, in her retirement fight in 2023, took home an estimated $1,342,000. Notably, her highest career earnings came in her second fight against Julianna Pena, where she regained the Bantamweight title and took home a reported $2,032,000.
For her return fight against another major name and a fight that will define the legacy of both women, Nunes will likely command an even higher purse.
