Comments Thread For: Dana White on Boxing: All Those F------- Guys Are Overpaid!

[Nusky]

I don't give a s--t what these fighters make-Boxing Or UFC.

At least this skinhead makes the fights the fans wanna see ON TIME NOT 5YRS LATER.

More importantly, how does this roid head still manage to be a fat slob? Everytime I see him he's busting out of a custom suit.

He's one of those Low level life forms that got money but its still painfully obvious what he is. TRASH

It's hard for me to say who is right and who is wrong here honestly. The way i see it is MMA guys wanna complain the boxer makes more money but yet chose MMA as their combat sport of choice knowing damn well they wont be paid like the top tier boxers so that's their own damn fault. Let's be honest if I were to choose to fight for a living I would go where the money is. It's really that simple. One cant complain for getting hanged if you volunteer your head to the noose.

I think UFC fighters are underpaid...but thats just me

He has a point, but I don't know the exact pay they get in the UFC.

I'd venture to say that the top fighters in the UFC get underpaid, and perhaps the top boxers do get overpaid, like Canelo and Fury, as great as they are.

Then again; I think to myself, maybe not overpaid, because they're risking their lives in there, and boxing seems more punishing, at least with brain health, than mixed martial arts.

i have no idea of what the exact figures are for a typical ufc ppv, if whyte were really so confident of his stance then he would have figures at hand to 'prove' his pay model is fair, a detailed breakdown of who gets what etc, i presume anyway

i do remember from ufc the have main show, prelims, early prelims, i mean thats a lot of people as well

The guy who starts a business from scratch will always take the credit for all money coming in. Dana White can only do this though because, unlike boxing, he has zero competition.

[Griever0730]

Yes and no. More the UFC guys are hella underpaid. The reason why they're out here calling out boxers.

[STREET CLEANER]

How they can be overpaid if the fans are paying for it? Unless White wants to make all the money for himself and underpay his fighters.

Does anybody know what the current base rate of pay is for 4s,6s,8s and 10s? ...............Rockin'

A boxer deserves every penny that that he can draw and then some.

And boxing is much more damaging, I agree.................Rockin'
