In PRIDE FC, I think the prize money for the champion is 5 million dollars for fighting, an extra 5 million for winning. In the UFC, since the sport grew from the 1990's, when Mark Coleman was the champion, it was 250k for fighting, and an extra for winning, now though, the light heavy and heavyweight champs command 5 million dollar purses total I think, 2.5 for fighting and 2.5 for winning. A dude can win 10 straight title defenses as the MMA champ, and then retire. Or, like Randy Couture did, use the money to start his own gym.
In the video game UFC:2009 Undisputed in the intro for career mode they say they have a 6 figure salary.
*Edit - They get paid no where near as much as boxers though. Anderson Silva, probably the best light heavyweight fighter ever only get 150,000 a year, which is why he is switching to boxing in 2010.

Nothing, at least not as a fighter. Amateurs do not get paid for their performance. They would have to get income as an instructor or in another line of work.

the winning fighter can make as much as $175,000 a match.
depends who they are fighting and in what league, some UFC fighters make up to 150,000 dollars a fight, but like i said depends where and who you fight.
It depends on if he wins or not. He will get a 6 figure payout for every fight because he won the ultimate fighter.

All fighters have a contract that specifies how much money they will make if they show up for a fight. Usually, that is the amount of money they will get irrespective of whether they win or lose a fight. Winners will get a "Win Bonus" which is over and above the money that is paid out as above. Apart from this, for a fight night, people also get knock out of the night bonus, fight of the night bonus, submission of the night bonus etc. So, if a person was involved in a fight of the night match and lost, he will still end up getting the bonus.
