Forrest Griffin left the Octagon at UFC 86 with more than just the light heavyweight championship strapped to his waist. He earned a pile of money, too.

Griffin pocketed an event-high $310,000 payday after his unanimous decision victory against Quinton "Rampage" Jackson at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, according to figures obtained from the UFC and the Nevada State Athletic Commission. His haul includes a $150,000 win bonus and a $60,000 "Fight of the Night" bonus.

Jackson, who had held the UFC's 205-pound crown since his technical knockout of Chuck Liddell and May 2007, earned $285,000, his $60,000 "Fight of the Night" bonus included. The 30-year-old Memphis, Tenn., native entered the UFC 86 main event on a six-fight winning streak.

ELITEXC ADDS BASZLER TO JULY 26 LINEUP

Shayna Baszler will collide with Cristiane Cyborg at EliteXC: Unfinished Business on Saturday, July 26 at the Stockton Arena in Stockton, Calif. The winner could meet Gina Carano for the vacant EliteXC women's championship sometime later this year.

Baszler (9-4, 3-0 EXC) has rattled off four consecutive victories since her TKO loss to Tara Larosa under the Bodog Fight banner in early 2007. A protégé of former UFC heavyweight champion Josh Barnett, the South Dakotan has secured all nine of her wins by submission. Baszler last appeared in April, when she coaxed a tapout from Keiko Tamai on the ShoXC: Elite Challenger Series.

The unbeaten Cyborg (4-0) has won her last three fights by first-round TKO. The wife of Chute Boxe Academy veteran Evangelista "Cyborg" Santos, she has competed exclusively for the Storm Samurai promotion in Brazil.

IN BRIEF

• Toby Grear will defend the Total Fighting Alliance lightweight championship against Bobby Green in the featured bout at TFA 11: Pounding at the Pyramid on Saturday at the Walter Pyramid in Long Beach, Calif. Grear (5-4) will enter the match on a two-fight winning streak, but he has not competed since he stopped Joey Alvarado on strikes at TFA 8 in October. Green (3-1), meanwhile, has yet to lose in two appearances inside the TFA promotion. He last fought in March, when he submitted Raymond Ayala with a second-round choke at TFA 10.
