MMA fighters know they can’t beat boxers but they know where the money is at.

The popular one’s, like McGregor, have a choice.


$80-$100 million to fight Mayweather as the B side?

Or...

$3 million in a PPV where you’re the A side and you’re the one selling the PPV and making UFC all that money, which you get a small fraction from?

Even if McGregor doesn’t fight Mayweather, in a rematch still, fighting Canelo, Pacquiao or literally any popular boxer would still get him exponentially more money than what UFC is willing to give him.

Mayweather "tricked" him? Based his training camp on his defensive style? Sounds about as ****** as Romero going off post-fight about Adesanya not standing & trading shots with him. Every combat participant knows you have to be ready for anything. Those are just loser excuses so the cheerleaders have something to hang on to. Mayweather carried this fool to make it look like it was competitive so peeps can buy a 2nd fight. It wasn't competitive one bit.

Well, when Dana is admitting underpaying fighters, it's what happens.

They're still prizefighters at the end of the day.

This is what happens when UFC fighters realize they’re shortening their lifespan’s for pennies.
