To the guy who posted up UFC paydays, remember you mentioned Jon Jones, Anderson Silvas and Forrest Griffins. These guys are their biggest draws. MMA fans want to see these guys like a boxing fan wants to see the pacs, b-hops and the mayweathers. Now compare Anderson Silva's $200,000 to what Floyd Mayweather makes on a night.
Obviously, the no-names in any sport are going to get **** all but when the biggest name in your show makes $200,000 thats rough.
Actually, I think Brock Lesnar recieved the biggest payday in MMA history at UFC 100, which was the biggest show/stacked card in MMA history and including win bonuses and other **** bonuses, it was just over $1,000,000 and :gay:
$200 for nosebeeds... I remember trying to get nosebleeds for Pac-Cotto in '09 and I don't recall them being that much. $150 I think but I could be wrong.
Then again, pac-jmm 3 will be a bigger sell than pac-cotto.
