UFC Fight Night 59 in Boston is in the books, and what a successful night for Irish MMA it was, as we can now look forward to a title fight between Conor McGregor and Jose Also in May. Cathal Pendred and Paddy Holohan also picked up wins as the tricolour flew proudly around Boston's TD Garden.

While all the Irish fighters will be delighted to add another win to their UFC records, they will also be pretty damn happy with the pay-day, especially McGregor, as the salaries for the event have been made available to the public, and it makes for some interesting reading.

Main Card (FOX Sports 1)
Conor McGregor ($85,000 + $85,000 = $170,000) def. Dennis Siver ($39,000)
Donald Cerrone ($73,000 + $73,000 = $146,000) def. Benson Henderson ($48,000)
