    The BIGGEST and RICHEST fight in UFC History aaaaaaaaaaand...

    The 2 Main event fighters (Lesnar and Couture) made a COMBINED $700,000.

    That is called GROSSLY underpaying your athletes.

    When DLH-PACQUIAO comes along, which should generate roughly the same amount of PPV buys, prolly a couple hundred thousand more, the two fighters will each make upwards of 10 million bucks...

            its rediculous and i find it amazing that the fighters just sit there and take it.

            And im surprised that someone like Dana White, who apparently loves the fighters and the sport, lets something like this happen

              Boxing will continue to be what it has been for many years; an superstar-driven sport that is important to the general public 3 or 4 times a year, hence why the purses are huge.

              MMA is more popular in terms of day-by-day interest, but hasn’t yet got that superstar appeal to Joe Blow, hence why the highest earner makes a fraction of what Oscar makes.

                  i would gladly get my ass kicked for 5 rounds and make 350,000 dollars rather than go to work for a year for only 45,000...
