Unified promoter, you can find as many belt holder in MMA as in Boxing. It's just the media doesn't give two ****s about MMA and will recognize the UFC title holders as the best in the world in their division.
The UFC does what Don King used to do only giving title shots to fighters under his promotion and if you wanted a shot you had to sign with him. After the Ali act was passed in Boxing that practice was made illegal but MMA doesn't fall into the same laws as Boxing.
Good point, and as someone already posted, it's alot easier for the UFC to put up great undercards is because they're able to pay their fighters ****.
For as long as UFC is able to keep this up, they'll always 1 up boxing when it comes to their PPV's
wrong. the main event fighters get paid less but thats because the UFC spreads the pay more evenly throughout the undercard fights. the main event fighters still get paid the most of course, but they don't get 95% of the total revenue share like in boxing.
Like I said.. They don't have to pay fighters as much.
What part of that don't you understand?
You're coming off as an idiot.
I like the way UFC pays its fighters, huge pay days have been ruining boxing for years. The UFC pays fighters a percentage of the buyrate they draw, so if you draw you'll get paid and if you don't you won't.
Also they have incentives to finish and have exciting fights. They have bonuses for fight of the night, KO of the night, and submission of the night.
Yep....Couture actually made at least $2.5 million for the last fight with PPV figures added in
