I didn't see the entire thing, but I saw something on TV a while back about how underpaid UFC fighters are.
It's a joke man for real. I remember a Card that Lesnar was headlining and he was supposed to be their stud/star fighter and he was making like 500K while his opponent was making 125K for the fight.
They had like 8 fights and the total income paid to the fighters was under 2 million......16 fighters.
White can say what he wants but the guy is just as bad as some of these boxing promoters are, if not worse.
But Dana and the Fertittas acquired UFC during the "Ken Shamrock" days. He really has been there from the beginning. Shamrock joined the UFC in 93, White became president to the UFC in 92.
The first UFC event ever, wasn't until 93.
Thx for the info. I didn't know Dana was around back then..

TBH, i dont think they are that underpaid, afterall they are only fighting. The problem with our country is that we pay athletes exorbitant amounts of $$ to see them play a game or watch a fight. The one thing MMA does right is the fact that UFC is the top dog and only has 1 belt per division. everyone fights everyone and i wish boxing was like that cause then we wouldnt have so many different belts, duckers and promoters ruin the sport i love...
