It's really expensive to properly train 100% and be committed to the fight game. If you're only getting $8k + max of $2500 for your first 5 UFC fights. 5 fights will take up the better part of 2 years if you have zero injuries. It'll typically take a new fighter 3+ years to get through those first 5 fights, assuming there's one injury layoff. Making maybe $20k a year for 3-; years isn't going to appeal to many guys that have talent and potential.
Does the UFC even insure those guys? If not, 1 injury could cost them more than they make.
