Angel says they had to pay money for the new belts they won, its not free. So even if you win your fight you still have to pay ****ing money for the belts? how messed up is that?

[Sage84]

And they have to pay fees for each defense. How do you think the organisations earn their money?

[Jack Napier]

knew they had to pay sanctioning fees for rankings and title shots, but they have to pay to possess the physical belt too? :gay:

[Hougigo]

I just heard in boxing, they have to punch each other.... Wtf?

[RlCKY]

Yep. When you win the titles, you don't win THE titles. I think the WBC belts cost $700 or something. Maybe more now, that's the last figure I remember.

Wbc its like 2000$. I heard this in a interview on hasegawa hozumi

[black.ink]

Surely the fee for a belt varies depending on the event/title fight, and perhaps divisional?

If it's a flat fee through-out all of the divisions, than it isn't really fair on the lesser known fighters in the lower divisions who's fight salary would be considerably lower than the higher earners of the sport?

[Larry the boss]

what new belts did they win???i know you have to pay sanctioning fees every fight when you are champ
