Pay no attention to me, for I am a stupid cunt.

quote:

Brian "The Professional Predator" Rogers was supposed to fight Gary "Freak Train" Tapusoa on Bellator 113. Tapusoa failed to sell enough tickets and was told his purse would be $400 to fight Rogers. Tapusoa allegedly was to sell 100 tickets. For the cheapest tickets he would have brought in $5,000 for the event promoter Bellator. They would have used these sales to pay the fighter. Bellator waited until Brian was in Kansas and on weight to inform him.
Bellator is the 2nd largest MMA promotion, Bellator has been owned by Viacom since 2011. In contrast Tapusoa could fight for BAMMA or many regional shows and not face a world class athlete like Brian for 1/1 and get paid additional for any ticket sales.
The bigger issues is the lack of a real 2nd buyer for MMA Athletes. I can't imagine a day when a Holy Holm is upset about 15/15 when the second largest promotion has fighters working as commissioned sales people.

This popped up on reddit today and I'm not sure if it's bullshit but holy poo poo lol @ Bellator if it's for realsies
