Comments Thread For: UFC's Dana White Unloads on Boxing, Says It's Very "F--ked Up"

[rocktop]

I just read the first sentence of what you wrote and stopped look up the purses for UFC 248 Israel Adesanya made like 500k and he was the highest paid athlete on that card in front of Romero the co-main Zhang only made 100k but since she won she got a 100k bonus I know flyweights in boxing that are guaranteed more than that. The entire combined purse for the whole PPV roster was 2 million some boxers make that each in a fight even Prograis is making 7 figures get out here bro go to sherdog or one of thos MMA forums if you like it so much better.

So you messed up when you just read one sentence instead of everything i wrote. I said the payout in mma is confusing because its not like boxing payouts ufc is a private company so they add hidden payout only known to the fighter. An example would be cormier his reported pay for lewis fight was 500k-700k but than it came out he made 5 mil. strictly Boxing fans dont know ufc is a private company and doesnt disclose full pay so they always repeat the same thing as what you just said.

Also i said other than main and co main the pay is about the same for the fighters and boxers under that and that main eventers and champs make way more than b level boxers and c level boxers.

I know what you wrote you just put Daniel Cormier as your example one of the top 3 athletes for the organization at the moment of course he is going to get more money from endorsements but guess what boxers have endorsements as well and have the ability to advertise within the ring something the UFC can't do because they are locked into a nice contract with Reebok. I know the UFC is a private company dude but they still post the purse same with boxing the purse the fighter get's is not what he makes either PPV sales, merchandise, live gate, sponsors, etc. It works the same with either sport only difference is boxers make more.

You can't fault Dana for being a trier. Every trick in the book to try and boost the UFC brand..

Credit is due to anyone who doesn't mind embarrassing themselves by constantly speaking a load of old pony...

So you basically just justified Conor fighting someone on a PPV main event who was coming off 2 consecutive knockout losses ok dude I guess haha if that's what you all consider bouncing back strong after losses cool there's no reasoning with you then. UFC has boxing beat by nothing highest gates = boxing highest purses = boxing most number of ppv buys = boxing. UFC was going to break that record if they could've managed to pull off the card on the 18th but now that Khabib didnt get sent the location he's stuck in Russia and chances are that card is going to fall apart. And Conor is not an all time great lmao he had some good wins at 145 and beat a washed up Eddie Alvarez for his champ champ status at 155 but lost to a out of shape Diaz and tapped and got mauled and even dropped by Khabib. In 5 years how many fights has Conor won? I rank Daniel Cormier and Henry Cejudo miles above Conor.

Of course it was okay you dimwit! Conor had not fought in 15 months, had not fought MMA in 2 years prior to that and was coming off a loss himself! Just stfu when you have nothing of substance to say. you clearly don't know shxt about combat sports.

Good excuse bro Conor is not great sorry good fighter yes at least he was before he let fame get to his head but he could have fought someone like Michael Chiesa or Stephen Thompson instead he fights Cowboy Cerrone a career lightweight who only wins against limited tough guys like Alexander Hernandez and Mike Perry but loses anytime he fights a top 5 contender. The fact that you are justifying it makes me think you know nothing about either sport just a McGregor fanboy who probably thought he could beat Floyd.

Been watching MMA since Pride buddy I probably seen more than you too not this new era where everybody sells themselves like WWE fighters and develop biased friendships with Dana White.

Everyone always says oh boxing weak matchups bad champions this and that yet the face of UFC comes back and fights a fighter who had just been knocked out twice. In boxing there are plenty of fighters who have come off 1+ year layoffs to fight in championship fights and eliminators against top 5 opponents but for Conor it's ok because he was off for 15 months punching senior citizens and drinking ****ty whiskey.

Again they dont post full payout for all the fighters so what you said is false its not like boxing payouts and was using Cormier as an example of full pay not being disclosed not to show he makes big money. Also that money was not from endorsements it was ppv and fight pay only. My dude im not trying to argue who makes more was just informing about a myth that has been getting passed around in the boxing community that isnt true you can take it or leave it doesnt hurt me none.

You should look again. Conor has one of the best MMA resume's ever. It's clear you're just a hater with an agenda.

On a side note, who gives a fxck? Not me
