First row is good for me. Fight pass is a joke

Actually pretty much all new signees ( except big names) make $6k to $9k to show.
Do you even UFC? If you have a great fight the UFC WILL give you big checks, they just don't disclose it.

I can't even imagine being a fighter and what a toll it puts on one's body. It would be hard to justify killing myself for less than 6 figures/fight.
Forbes put out a list of highest paid athletes and #1 was a tennis player that made $29 million last year. After the last Ronda fight in Danas media scrum he said if people knew what she really made between sponsorships, endorsements, movies and fights she would have been #1. He was very confident when he said it which is fricking crazy if true!

Totally! Live events, exclusive content, international TUFs and every UFC, WEC, PRIDE and Strickforce fight ever for 30 cents a day is such a joke!

Do you even reading comprehend?
I said new signees. I bet over 50% of their roster make $20k or less to show. Even if they win three fights in a year it's only $120k. Subtract 10% to the gym and travel expenses. There's not a ton of money being made unless you're a big name or have a lot of sponsors.

International TUF's should all be aired here anyway. And I don't want to go back and watch fights that have already happened.

Do you? I said people who perform get big checks. Dana walks up to guys all of the time, congratulates them after their fight and tells them to expect a big check in the mail. Sometimes guys fighting in their first fight, sometime even if they lose!

I don't think you understand that the UFC DOES NOT disclose all of the money they pay out, not even close to it. I would bet over 50% of the time what you see as the reported purses are not what the fighters really receive.

So you've fought in the UFC or do you know someone who has? Dana doesn't just give them an extra $50k for a good fight unless it's FOTN or POTN. They may get a little bump but it's $5-$10k range. This was told to me by a UFC fighter.
so do you like apples?

MCGREGOR - POIRIER... holy shitttt, I've got goosebumps

I like Mcgergor. Dude can fight.
He fights a lot like Lee Murray. Lee's boxing was better, but Conor is a little more diverse.
