^^^ You also see why the UFC loves and does anything for him.

In his 5 PPV fights, the gates alone combined generated $54M. He earned $25M from those 5 fights.



Holy gently caress some of the pay outs

quote:

$8,000,000 vs. Mark Hunt
Notes:
Brock Lesnar's $8 million purse for UFC 200 was the highest for years, with him forgoing a PPV cut and instead getting a set flat fee. He had a base purse of $2.5 million, with a $5.5 million side deal to get to his total.

MM got hosed so hard . Just laughable. Sure hope ONE is paying him loads

quote:

Demetrious Johnson

$245,000 vs. Henry Cejudo

$350,000 vs. Tim Elliott
Notes:
Longtime flyweight champion Demetrious Johnson clashed with the UFC over not having a cut of the PPV in the past. For his eighth straight title defense against Henry Cejudo, he was on a contract that paid $135,000 to show and $60,000 to win, and only got to $245,000 after a $50,000 performance of the night bonus. For his ninth title defense against Elliott, he got a flat fee of $350,000 with no win bonus or PPV points.


Also, when Khabib was 21-0 (2013) he was signed at a 21/21, that increased by 3k per win up to 30/30

Good poo poo in the ONE main event.
(Ignore the fact it's a MT champ vs a MMA champ for a kickboxing title)

It's a very Bellator thing to have grand prix semi final on what possibly could be their last could card.

My consumption of UFC/MMA is still basically everything. I will watch UFC to the LUX card on fightpass to some weird card on youtube thats in Turkmenistan. I just love watching fights.

That being said I fully understand why people are turned out for UFC and don't really watch much.
Dana is a POS and match making (mainly for titles) are and have been a joke for years. For a long time I would watch all the lead up and post fight stuff but with how much Dana is in and following the golden rule of 'don't learn more about fighters you like' I tend to avoid everything I can but the fights.

I have never paid for a PPV (bars by me show them for free). Last live event I attended was UFC 239 and I never will probably again.
