Bellator 283 Salaries: Douglas Lima among four fighters to earn a six-figure payout

Douglas Lima was one of four fighters to receive a six-figure payday this past weekend as part of the Bellator 283 card.

Bellator 283 went down in Tacoma, Washington last Friday night with a whole host of exciting fights and action for fans to sink their teeth into. From title eliminators to rising prospects making a name for themselves, the promotion once again proved why it serves as the number two player in town in the mixed martial arts space.

As per MMA Junkie, we can also have a look at how much the fighters on the card were able to take away courtesy of information they gained from the Washington State Department of Licensing.

Douglas Lima, among a handful of others, will likely be pretty pleased with what they made.
