Ronda Rousey may have "sadistic eroticism" sophielost UFC 207 in under a minute, but she still walked away with a pretty incredible payday, earning $62,500 per second.
In her first fight since November 2015, Rousey was no match for reigning bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes, who, by comparison, notched $5,208 per second.
Rousey's total $3 million ties Conor McGregor for the highest disclosed purse in UFC history, according to MMA Fighting.
Nunes, whose flurry of ferocious punches took care of Rousey in 48 seconds, earned a total $250,000 for the knockout victory — $100,000 to show, $100,000 to win plus $50,000 for Performance of the Night.
You can see why she earned that extra cash.

And as long as we're talking about big name fighters making big bucks, boxing legend Floyd Mayweather made $14,800 per second at a fight in 2014. Granted, that fight lasted 12 rounds and 36 minutes, Mayweather's total purse was a whopping $32 million and he won the bout by unanimous decision.
But Rousey's cash-per-second value is still absurd, especially considering the fact that she lost.
Can one confidently assume she'd give that money back for another shot at Nunes?
