I trip out on these whiners that come on here crying about how much pro athletes make. You make less than $25k a year. Why dont you worry about improving your own financial situation before you waste time crying about how evil Dan White is?

Owen Stewart
The fact of the matter is that there are guys on the UFC roster that arent even worth 10k/10k.
Do you think Sam Stout deserves ten thousand dollars for losing to Ross pearson on the prelims of a b level PPV? BEcause I fucking dont.
Blake Robinson
Jobbers that get 15 people from their hometown to tune into FS2 to watch them fight don't deserve any more than $8k
They don't like fighting for $8k? Nobody asked them to punch guys for a living.
Jaxson Green
WSOF is even worse, their undercard fighters literally get 100s at most to show in some cases

Lmaooooooooooooooooooo
Carter Nelson
Okay, let those fightpass prelim fighters take their business elsewhere. If the UFC started overpaying these jobbers, they would hire much less fighters who would be getting brain damage in a high school gymnasium in ballsack, Michigan. I think the UFC does a great service for many sorry ass fighters.
Nolan Clark
RIP cuckthread, we hardly knew ye.
Henry Walker
Maybe you didn't understand me. I don't see how fighters getting paid more will make the sport higher quality. Please enlighten me
Joshua Diaz
>even though at best doing so doesn't help them in any way and is at worst adverse to their interests
because unlike you poorfag i dont think a company is a charity that i have any say over how they spend their money
I just wanted to call someone a faggot and they won't let me on mma.reddit.com.
Brody Adams

Jackson Morales
>I don't see how fighters getting paid more will make the sport higher quality
obviously going forward when a little kid decides on what sport he wants to play he'll say "mommy how about mma, they just raised the minimum salary for prelim fighters!!!"
Jason Brooks
Paige doesn't give a flying fuck about fighting. Seeing her get choked out and go completely limp was one of the best moments in MMA history, even better than her getting raped by Butch Namajunas
Luke Russell
more money = more fighters = more competition = better fighters = better fights simple
Ayden Turner
> Point out that the UFC on average underpays their fighters > OMG GUYS! THEY NEED THAT EXTRA HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS!
I understand that people are paid what they are worth, but you're factually wrong if you think the "UFC fairly pays it's fighters". NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB all pay exorbitant amounts for mid to lower tier players that most MMA fighters would never see.
Nathaniel Roberts
she got back up almost immediately after waterson let go it was almost like she was faking being choked out
Jaxson Cruz
>a company which pays its employees a decent wage in comparison to the danger they face and work they put in is a charity
This is a new level of cuckoldry
Levi Powell
>NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB all pay exorbitant amounts for mid to lower tier players that most MMA fighters would never see.
>team sports are the same as individual sports
kys
you NEED 70 people on the roster to play football. you don't need some bum to fill a prelim spot when there are 1000 other ones chomping at the bit
Andrew Kelly
I am this guy And I am a liberal. I voted for clinton, but I am realistic when it comes to the value of fighters no one has ever heard of who arent event that good
Gabriel Robinson
>comparison to the danger they face and work they put in
uh, no one is forcing them to fight retard. how about they go work mcdonalds if they want a fair wage.
oh right the majority of prospects are idiots with no marketable skills so they willingly choose to risk heems for a living
why dont you go fund a kickstarter for them
Michael Morris
Alright, that does make sense. I'm no economist though so you could be wrong
Isaiah Hughes
>And I am a liberal. I voted for Clinton
Wyatt Russell
It really is sad. Right wingers are clueless half the time.
Kevin Phillips
>it was almost like she was faking being choked out
Lol why would she fake being out? There are videos on youtube you can look up of people being choked out then getting up immediately
Blake Mitchell
He literally said that he thought I was a conservative in the post I responded too. I was correcting him so that he would know that I am not arguing from a political point of view.
Michael Scott
Nigga gets his eyebrows done, kek
Juan Nelson
I'm not saying she actually faked it, I'm saying it may have been a premature stoppage Compare this to Tate-Holm and you can see a clear difference
Michael Thomas
>premature stoppage
You are stupid. She literally went out and offered no resistance
You are very very stupid.
Eli Ward
dem links tho
Nathaniel Sanders
>the majority of prospects are idiots with no marketable skills so they """""willingly""""" choose
Is this not the literal definition of exploitation?
You're literally defending a multi-billion dollar corporation making ridiculous amounts of money by exploiting ignorant lower class Americans.
No one is arguing that every fighter should be paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for every fight even if the fighter is on a prelim, but just a reasonable amount which correlates with how much the UFC actually earns and how much it costs to train/live.
Levi White
Someone doesn't need to be completely out for the fight to be stopped. You can clearly see the second she goes limp and stops moving.
How do you not know this?
Eli Cox
>Not knowing the difference between a submission and technical submission
Wyatt Ross
>no name jobber on fightpass prelims makes triple what he does now >UFC starts hiring less fighters to compensate for large increase in fighter pay >Talented fighters get stuck in B and C level promotions like Ben Askren >Less prospects get UFC spotlight >Great fighters get paid under 10k fighting in shitty promotion >Great fighters start quitting MMA because no recognition from being on a UFC card
Cameron Robinson
>by exploiting ignorant lower class Americans. They are getting into a fight for 10k/10k. They can go work at McDonalds or any other lower-class job and get paid even less for more work.
Carter Baker
>and get paid even less for more work.
>McDonalds workers work more than MMA fighters
Are you dumb?
Brody King
honestly not worth the effort of refuting
Jackson Sanchez
I feel like I'm in a minimum wage thread on Sup Forums with all these people defending lower salaries and getting angry at the prospect of people fairly getting paid more.
Anyway, shit posting aside, we all agree Rousey is going to get rekt by Nunes right?
Daniel Sullivan
Should I stop traneing my back
I feel it's enough desu
Xavier Gutierrez
never stop traneing

How much do you think Fox pays to broadcast fight nights?
Just doing the numbers - the fighter salaries for PVZ v Waterson roughly equate to the gate with a bit to spare

mike perry convincingly lost a decision cody is next
ufc memes are killed by rear naked chokes, forced "memes" on /heem/ are killed when people learn how shit the fighters they're spamming really are

Which fighter do you think would do the best in the world Of WH40k? My money is on Lawler and Ubereem
Justin Morris

YES YES YES
Owen Ward
>just doing the numbers
What numbers?
Caleb Adams
>be mike perry >talk mad shit before the fight >go into the cage and lose a pretty pathetic decision by fighting like a ninny
Could not have been more exposed if he tried
Liam Garcia
The Notorious Conor McGregor
Owen Long
shit, thats a good answer. Lauzon as well
Jason Ward
The published fighter salaries excluding the reebucks compared to the total gate.
This keeping in mind I failed year 10 maths.
Ayden Jones
don't forget sponsors, ufc employee costs, commission costs, taxes, ufc loan payments, website costs, health and safety cost for fighter, usada testing, insurance, deals with BTsport and TSN, promotional production
yes, UFC barely makes a profit
Nathan Cox
A lot of that money goes into contracts and ad buys during football games etc.
Joshua Phillips
Uh huh... and the other numbers like
>Cost of renting the arena >Cost of paying cameramen and other crew >Cost of insurance and other things a business needs to operate
?
Joseph Ramirez
Yes, obviously. I'm just trying to see how much is actually left over after the salaries are paid in order to cover those things and still provide a profit to the UFC.
Which as
says, is probably not a lot.
FightPass does seem to provide a pretty decent amount though.
Thomas Rivera
>UFC barely makes a profit
You don't know this
Jose Howard
the nigga used your format and you still had to post this lmao my man
Justin Harris
Honestly if he wasn't knocked down at the end of round two I give the first to Perry
Liam Kelly
????????
Bentley Hernandez
Just made a delicious tofu scramble lads
Isaiah Lee
He got lit up in all 3 rounds. He could've finished Jouban late round 1, he had him rocked but for some reason he just kept off him. He wasn't showing any of the grit and heart he showed in the Roberts fight. He was just letting himself get tagged and not returning anything back.
Maybe he bet on himself to lose.
Justin Miller
someone should make a webm of Perry when he puts his head down in shame after the end of round 3. It was so funny how he did it
Christian Bell
Maybe he got leg kicked to death and couldn't fucking move correctly.
Aiden Clark
Roberts was kicking him even harder. I'm not making any excuses for him he was horrible, but he fought like a pussy.
The way the Aldana and Smith fight went was exactly how I expected this fight to go. Except Perry doesn't know what throwing a combo is.
Nathan Torres
He took a bunch of hard body kicks, didn't seem prepared for that at all. I think Jouban is more of a developed fighter overall, Perry has potential but he isn't there yet. Maybe if they fought in three years it would be different
Aiden Jackson
He was moving just fine, he was stalking Jouban the entire fight
