Official Thread : MMA Is Going nowhere : Finance Figures!

[Dick-Sucker]

Okay guys im sick of listening to this MMA bull****. First of all im a boxing fan and i can't stand MMA.

Second of all once you take a detailed look into the finances and compare both sports, its obvious boxing will be around for thousands of years to come!

Reason: Top boxers get around $3 million a fight maybe even more in the US. Or maybe its a little less, but thats not the point.

MMA fighters get around 50 K for a fight. With the biggest fights, getting fighters around 200K.

Now do the maths. Stop drinking for a minute. And you will work out, the better athletes will choose a career in boxing because of the larger financial rewards. Meaning the sport will be a lot more entertaining with the worse athletes going to MMA.

Its how sport works!

I wish we'd stop even acknowledgin MMA on a goddamn boxing site.

The UFC really screws over its fighters in terms of pay, tending to sign long-term contracts which then keep fighters in its pocket for peanuts even should their fame or success explode. It has a virtual monopoly in the US and provides the best exposure, so for now no one is truly fighting against it - either you submit or get nothing, and up-and-comers can't afford to miss their chance. Eventually however it will be forced to change its crooked tactics as the sport grows and fighter demands multiply. In Japan the paydays are typically much more respectable.

This doesn't mean the sport is going nowhere, just that its participants aren't overpaid.

Also, we could make a very SHORT list of all the boxers who routinely get 3 MILLION or more a fight.
