what a joke, guys still getting paid 3G to fight?? this is why the UFC doesn't get any good talent.. They're not willing to pay for it..

Holy Shit I didn't think it was that low. I thought top fighters always got 100-300k per fight depending on opponent. With UFC's PPV numbers now regularly being 300k plus I see this as a huge insult to the fighters.

If these numbers stay stagnant then I see UFC being quickly enveloped by other organizations. Once the American viewer gets a good taste of Pride they will see how shitty some of the matchups are in UFC.

UFC is good at developing fighters into big names however there marquee fighters will probably jump ship once there contracts are up.

the average is way above 3k and you forgot the ppv bonus which is a huge kick in

I agree they train and fight hard. And deserve more. A no name boxer on HBO can land a purse larger than the winners on some of those cards. Its still more than a lot of PRIDE fighters are making and they are supposed to have the "best" all around talent in MMA "according to popular opinion here on BS"

Can you imagine how they feel when they here the amount of money DLH, Mayweather, Mosley make for their fights?

How much do other fighters get paid? ie. Pride, etc.
