Fedor is an IDIOT!

[polandprzem]

UFC offered him more money...even Vladim has said this.

Hmm strange.

Brock made the most money so far as I remember correctly?
half a milion - and they would give Fedor 2 milions a year or 2 years ago?

btw. Fedor would have lost his freedome. He would not be able to fight in Russia and in Sambo compe ion. UFC takes a lot of freedome from fighters and giving them not much money.

I've heard that TUF fighters had no insurance. So they were risking health for nothing.

The guys in the UFC get their base pay and then a PPV cut on top of bonuses. Their base base is not the total amount...supposedly Brock and Randy made close to a million last fight.

Same with Fedor...his base pay last night was 300k and yet he really got a lot more.

You are talking about the best fighters and what about the fighters from undercard that earning 2 grands?


btw. what freak show once a year?
You could call a freak show one fight and that was against Choi (who was really not comfortable opponent anyway).

[Evan]

I've lost ya polandprzem...not sure what you're talking about now. I guess you're arguing a different point now? Who's making 2 grand on what card?

*head just exploded*

But you are are able to post?
Is it not the truth about Fedor?

dana says he wanted to get Fedor but his menagment never wanted to speak with him (well he said he never met Fedor and that's why he is mad )

also






Evan I'm talking about guys that are in the undercard. 2000$ 5000$ a fight

[LEONARD]

Was referring to the general scatter-shooting going on in that post, which features all kinds of assumptions and rumors...too much to process, so my head exploded...

hahahaha....

[polandprzem]

umm oh well

I just wanted to know your opinion about that.

Opinion on what exactly? Sorry thats what we're not clear about.

As far as insurance all fighters have medical insurance.

Money...the UFC gives out so many bonuses and a nice ppv percentage to the top guys that we have no clue how much these guys really make. Do I want them to get paid more? Of course I do but so many MMA orgs fail that we really don't know how much they should be paid responsibly. What we see on the pay out releases is not the entire story.

[polandprzem]

okay

thanks

[Evan]

okay

thanks

When those guys get hurt the UFC is not going to take those guys to a hospital and stiff them with the bill...it doesn't work that way.

From a business standpoint one of the best things the UFC does is pay goes undisclosed bonuses to keep fighters motivated once they get their contract. The problem is perception wise it kills them in the eyes of fans. Too much is shrouded in secrecy.

I know it sounds like it but I am not defending the UFC. I can't because I don't know for sure how their payout system works. All I know is they have base pay and bonuses while some guys get a PPV cut and that the public figures we see a couple days after the fight is not accurate. That's all I know so I can't have an opinion if they paid enough but I just know I want them to get paid as much as possible.
