quote:I have one fight left on my contract. I’m not very happy with the WSOF and I’ve asked to be released. I don’t feel it’s okay for a promotion to disregard a fighter’s contract or the fighter’s pay off a loss, but then try to fine tooth comb the same contract to hold onto a fighter off of a win. Contracts should be to take care of fighters and promotions. Not for promotions to take advantage of the fighter. I feel I need to stand up against WSOF while I can so it doesn’t happen to other fighters on the down side of things. I have no idea what the future holds until I resolve things with the WSOF. Burkman wants to leave WSOF I guess

The WSOF fighters who have gone from UFC to WSOF made less so, unless they are comparing WSOF main eventers to UFC prelim guys I'm not sure what he means.

Yea, I imagine main-eventing your first WSOF show pays better than 8/8 hopefully This Ali/Burkman thing is escalating though, Vinny Magalhaes is getting involved quote:@VinnyMMA 3h @JoshBurkman I don't blame you, dealing with that Ali guy must be a pain in the rear end. Which sucks because Ray is a great guy. quote:@JoshBurkman 4h @VinnyMMA couldn't have said it better myself. quote:VinnyMMA 3h @JoshBurkman Well, I know that for fact. I had a contract in hands, just needed to sign it. Dealing with him made the whole deal not worth. quote:@AliAbdelaziz00 1m @VinnyMMA the truth why you didn't sign w WSOF is because we offered you same as ufc gave you. You had just come off a KO by a 40 yr old. quote:@AliAbdelaziz00 44s @VinnyMMA You wanted 3x more than what ufc was paying you. I believe you're making 3/3 now. #truth tl;dr : Ali is mocking Vinny for the perosh KO and wanting 3 x his UFC money after it happened Edit: another quote:@VinnyMMA now quote:@VinnyMMA 1m Yuriy fucked around with this message at 04:44 on Apr 4, 2014 |

MMA is a lovely business. Vinny is a chinny fighter, but I believe he was asking for $24,000 to fight in WSOF since he made 8/8 in UFC. I don't think that's super unreasonable. They should have worked out something closer to 12/12 but hey what are ya gonna do other than go on twitter and put everybody's business out in the open? For the record Dana White has been saying nice things about the Burk Man so I hope he ends up back in UFC.

My understanding is Magalhaes was actually making $22k/$22k in the UFC (or claims this; he didn't fight in any place that releases purse information in his second UFC run, but humiliating M-1 might have gotten him a sweeter salary) and the WSoF offered him $6k/$6k. Anyway Ali Abdel-Aziz is a former fighter and apparently really good at networking, which seems to be how he got his job as a manager (with Dominance MMA Management) and also his job as the WSoF matchmaker and de facto GM. Unfortunately he's kind of a loving idiot and bad at his job.

Didn't he recently announce that WSOF was going to announce something that would make them a major player and then it turns out he didn't announce poo poo?

Holly Holm kicked another lady in the head 18MB gif ahoy Apparently there's some discussion of doing a stand-alone Holm vs Cyborg PPV, but that seems kinda farfetched to me.

Holm should ask for a muay thai fight or something because Cyborg would probably wrestle her in MMA.

IRFA is turning into the best local organisation for up and coming Young fighters with good competitive matchups. As a bonus I also spotted Joanne Calderwood in the audience. Apperantly she's been over to spar att Gustafsson's home gym, Allstars.

JT has lost 16 kilos since the fight and is in very good HW condition once again, he realises how sloppy he got after gassing in this fight but it was his first come back fight since his injury.
