Wouldn't that be the right way to go? Kinda shitty that celebrities got this option before fighters.
Pretty soon we'll see Ryan Bader popping up in Tyler Perry movies, Rather he wants to or not.
 
They can't afford buy a stake in the company.

Heck the Reebok money is not enough to buy a steak.
 
It's not publically held company so the UFC couldn't offer stock options. PPV points are similar to a profit share in a traditional company. Any kind of equity offers wouldn't make sense now that the company has already been sold for top dollar. There really isn't any ownership stake that would make sense on both sides of the table at this point.
 
Shame but they might have to pool money together like say Serra-Longo's camp or
Jackson-Wink, Kings MMA, AKA,
Blackhouse etc.
 
Fighters should seriously look into this .
They're getting screwed from every direction. Especially with sponsors littered across the Octagon and they don't get a cent from it.
They need some form of control because complaining so far has got them nowhere
 
Could be worth a shot. Pretty sure the other orgs are gonna start making fighter pay rise
