Question

How much money can you make a year in mma?

Answer 1

Depends on level of a fighter. Starting with $0 in the first 5 years of training :)

Answer 2

Well, fighters get paid base salaries for their fights. A lot of the promotions have win bonuses, and some of the bigger promotions have bonuses for Fight of the Night, Knockout of the Night, Submission of the Night, etc. Most of the money fighters make in the bigger promotions is advertisement deals. You can see in the UFC all the logos they have on their trunks and different banners they hang before the fight. They get paid to have that there. If your in the top level of MMA, millions of dollars can be made. If you're just starting out, you better have a job.

Answer 3

not very much, go to school and get a real job.

Answer 4

It depends on your record, in some cases how many tickets you personally sell, the network your affiliated with, your contractual agreement and how often you can physically fight.  Most of the guys I know get paid $2,000 per fight via KOTC or similar fight league.  They may fight six times per year sometimes more.

As you gain a record, reputation and following your pay can go up.  The main thing to do is create a marketable image, fight well, stay healthy and grow your fan base.  

The money will take care of itself.  As they say... "Do what you love and the money will come."

Enjoy.
