MMA GUYS. HEEELLLA UNDERPAID
Played out mayne, especially in this economy. No athlete was ever just given money, you gotta fight for that like you do in the ring.
Nah man. The UFC and MMA is still expanding,even in this market. As the first MMA rock star,Chuck Liddell was making LESS THAN $1.5 million per fight. So was Randy Couture. For chrissakes,that's Andre Berto-Kermit Cintron money. Cotto and Clottey made $4 million apiece,or thereabouts. MMA guys generate hundreds of millions in PPV for the big MMA shows,and they deserve more than the slave wages that they're paid. Slave wages SANS benefits,I might add. I'm not saying give em DE LA HOYA money,but don't pay these guys in what amounts to rubles pesos and naira.
