But his behaviour suggests that he is happy to take risks provided he is compensated. He wasn't afraid to fight RDA because there was something in it for him, ditto with Nate in the rematch after Nate humilated him. I don't think he's hiding behind big demands, if the UFC offered him what he thinks he is worth then he will fight.
My issue with this is not hm.
it is his fans who agree with it.
He is a fighter. You are his fan BECAUSE he fights.
But it seems odd that his fans are completely OK with him not fighting.....isn't it a direct contradiction of why people follow him in the first place???
