This article lists the purse for the other fights:

If it's accurate, the dumb thing is that the Anthony, who got destroyed by Ishe, made more ($125,000) then did Jesse ($100,000) who narrowly lost to Alphonso in the bronze match.

Ishe would have destroyed everyone with the possible exception of Sergio, yesterday.

Anthony didn't have to fight Ishe. He probably needed more $$$ to agree to it. He could have stuck to his guns and fought Fraza instead. I think that the whole weight thing was a smokescreen so they didn't have to admit they didn't want Ishe to kill Brent.
