And Rampage credited his 1st win over Chuck for training with some real wrestlers like Tito Ortiz and some real submission artists like Ivan Salaverry...
whats your point?
The only boxers making any money are PBF and DLH.
Chuck made over 7 Million last year and Tito Ortiz made over 10 Million. The average boxer makes 3x less than the average MMA fighter.
Main event fighters get paid $2.50 per PPV buy + their contract.
Chuck is paid $500,000 to show and $500,000 to win + his PPVs do 1+Million buys so he gets another $2.50 for each PPV buy...add that up
there are at least 15 guys with that contract in the UFC.
Fedor was paid a flat rate of 3 Million per fight with pride and 2 mil with Bodog fight.
No other boxers besides PBF and DLH make that kinda money.
Period!Comment

Agreed. However, Vitali could win that kickboxing match.
I think he was european champion in chickboxing before he came to his senses and started making money in boxing.Comment

Mirko Cro Cop made it to the K-1 GP finals and KTFO almost every top Kickboxer in the world. Vitali has trained with Cro Cop before and he's admitted that he wouldn't dare step in the ring with Mirko...Comment

MMA is still a small show...imagine in 10 years when Boxing is dead and MMA is doing 3 Million PPV buys a month how much money they will be getting...Comment

From mmaweekly.com: "As previously reported by MMAWeekly, each TUF winner's contract bind the fighter exclusively to the UFC for three years, with three fights per year. In the first year, the salary for each fight is $12,000 to fight and an additional $12,000 to win. Fighting income for the year would range from $36,000 to $72,000, depending on wins and losses. In the second year, it's $16,000 and $16,000 per fight, meaning that fighting income for the year would range from $48,000 to $96,000. In the third year, it's $22,000 and $22,000 per fight, meaning that fighting income for the year would range from $66,000 to $122,000. That is actually a six-figure income in one year out of three, or zero years out of three, depending on wins and losses."
"Fighters from TUF who did not win the competition generally get paid no less than $5,000 for each of their UFC fights (with rare exceptions), while the UFC's minimum for fighters who have not been on The Ultimate Fighter is still $2,000. This can be seen as recently as UFC 61 earlier this month."

Your numbers are NOWHERE NEAR the actual salaries.
Also, I'd like your source where Klitschko said he wouldn't step into a kickboxing match with Cro Cop. (I think he'd be smart not to step in with Cro Cop, but I'd like to see where he actually said that.)Comment
