  • Is UFC/MMA Salary Economics Affecting Boxing Purses?

    Even the top UFC fighters make less than third tier boxers.

    Now, fights are not getting made because certain boxers think that they would be underpaid if they take those fights.

    Are the too low purse offers a result of boxing promoters having their decisions on what fair pay is getting affected by what MMA fighters make?

    Mma fighters get paid fine,,, top guys are bringing home millions,,

    In ufc/mma,,, you get what you deserve and you are matched tough

    In boxing, you get overpaid without being able to draw with a tuneup opponent, and then balk and price ourself out of a major fight...


    Boxing is pathetic and is slowly dying away in America... UK domestic boxing scene is the only people doing it right and that's why UK boxing is thriving

      You really need to know what you're talking about before you start threads..

      3rd tier boxers like demarco, julio Diaz, etc are making more per fight than Conor, jones, lesner, Rhonda, Cormier, gsp, diaz, etc.... Lmao, you're an idiot and don't know what they are talking about..

        Its not 5 fighters in the ufc that make millions. So cut the ****.

        Tim Bradley has made more money than the biggest UFC star in the world. And Bradley isn't even considered a star.

        You say in the ufc, you get what you deserve.

        Anderson Silva damn sure wasn't getting what he deserved.

        Unbeaten for all those years, bringing in all those ratings and damn near every purse was under a million dollars.

        Ufc is so popular, yet their fighters are making peanuts compared to boxers.

        Ufc is so popular, but one ppv out of the year does a million buys. 1 ppv out of 12.

        The ufc makes the matches the fans wanna see, but the fighters don't get **** out of the deal.

        How much was Cormier about to make to fight bones jones before the injury? I'm pretty sure under a million dollars, and that's a big fight

        I rather be tim bradley than Connor mcgregor.

              The ignorance or denial some boxing fans have about MMA pay is impressive lol. Its well known to even casual MMA fans that guys in the UFC get undisclosed PPV points. This has been known for about 10 years since Randy Couture leaked his UFC contract when he was in a dispute with them (google it if you doubt me). It wasn't openly discussed up til that point or even after all that much, but in recent years its even discussed in MMA media although for the most part its speculative about what deals fighters have since its undisclosed.

                Is there bigger money in boxing? Sure. Is there guys still making millions of dollars per fight in the UFC? Absolutely.

                    Stating obvious facts isn't really the same as sucking someone off
