I really think 70% of these fighters would rarely fight, maybe once a year if we're lucky if they were overly paid. A la Nick Diaz he complains hes broke, comes back fights a mega fight gets paid and vanishes again for a year. Rampage got paid doing movies stopped fighting, no more movies no more money now hes back again. GSP sd he loves fighting and martial arts, blew up got champ got paid hes done now, no more love for it.

What I dont really understand is how you guys can argue this, this is like any other business, you start in the company in the bottom making low wage, then move up in the company money gets slightly better, then when u top of your game you make big bucks and then your done, retirement. I can't imagine a kid in McDonalds arguing that they dont like their uniforms and think they underpaid.

If these fighters truly wanna argue about their fighter pay and sponsors, how about they disclose their full ppv buy pay outs and their behind scenes bonus', lets see your sponsor cheques and how much your making off the gyms you rep for. Then lets talk numbers.

The guys your have listed had been fighting well over 10 years. Bad example. And did you really compare a McDonalds worker to a fighter in the biggest MMA company in the world?

Mayhem might commit that soon :hamster:

Got up mid interview to hit the bong hahaha



It looks like he's one step away from prison or the cemetery :mjcry:


Dude needs a mandatory stay in an intensive rehab program, legitimate counseling, and a psych evaluation. I knew it was bad when Mark Munoz hit him with the :camby:, but I didn't think he was that far gone.

That's the perfect example, ufc biggest Mia organization in world. McDonald's even bigger fast food chain and richer. That employee for McDonald's is just another fry boy, he can and will be easily replaced.

UFC fighters love em or not are all replaceable and will be replaced. I remember before when ufc was pushing hardy as the next thing outta euro till gsp dealt with him. Then it was Gus, now it's Conor.

Pride was 1 of the biggest before where are they now? Maybe if the many organizations that have come and gone had handled their business properly they wldnt have been so desperate to sell to ufc and get out.

Ufc is the most popular and highest paying mma organization in the world and every1 still ragging on em. If these fighters don't like it and r gettin so badly ripped off then go sign with glory, or one fc or Bellator when ur contract is up and quit complaining.

Just stop embarrassing yourself. I didn't even read the rest of your post after the first paragraph. Is Todd duffee or glover textual comparable to a fry boy? How many ppl can do what they can? How many ppl can do work a fry machine? End of convo

:dead:

mayhem looking like a hybrid of brian bozworth and a character from out of the Warriors movie. I wanted to say he was trolling but if anyone know mayhem history this him all the way. Sad, that he's lost it i actually thought he was going to get his shyt together when he signed with strikeforce.

Does glover fight every card? The ufc survived before glover and will survive after glover.

You need to understand the majority of ufc fans and ppv buyers are not superfans like most ppl in this thread. The ufc is a brand and survived before glover and will survive after glover. Bones Jones cn do coke go to jail possibly and the ufc will still go on with or without him. They'll be a new champ, new cards and new sponsors to sign.

Just like any of our jobs in real life. If we left our work ur job wld just hire some1 to do your job and it'll be business as usual. Stop thinking these fighters are special and 1 in n a million, they aren't. There's always some1 else ready to step up to take that belt from the last guy. How's Dominic Cruz doing? Ufc did fine without him as champ, kept on moving.
