MMA Career Earnings and Highlights
Keith Jardine made his professional MMA debut in August 2001, securing a win against Amir Rahnavardi. His career took off after competing on “The Ultimate Fighter 2” in 2005, leading to his UFC debut in February 2006, where he defeated Mike Whitehead. During his time in UFC, his announced career earnings totaled approximately $405,000. This figure includes fight purses and bonuses. A notable moment was his “Knockout of the Night” win against Forrest Griffin in December 2006. He also earned “Fight of the Night” honors for his bouts against Quinton Jackson in March 2009 and Matt Hamill in June 2010, earning a $60,000 bonus from the Quinton Jackson fight. However, it’s important to note that these announced earnings don’t include sponsorships or undisclosed locker room bonuses, which can significantly augment a fighter’s income. For instance, despite defeating Chuck Liddell in the UFC 76 main event, Jardine’s base pay was only $14,000, highlighting the variability in fight purses. Jardine’s UFC career ended after a loss to Matt Hamill in June 2010, leading to the termination of his contract. He later competed in Strikeforce, where he lost to Luke Rockhold for the Strikeforce Middleweight Championship in January 2012.
