Look at you go, making my exact point that you prefer the conservative route of just getting guaranteed up front disclosed pay. And not the actual gambling route dependent on bonuses, platforms, opportunities, etc. you keep pretending is the route Francis took and you want others to take when they did the complete opposite.
It's fine, I just don't understand why you guys continue to lie about this. I mean I know why as it's a nice narrative, but it doesn't hold up to any scrutiny so I guess I just don't understand why you bother with such a flimsy lie. There's nothing wrong with simply saying you agree the guaranteed route was the better option. Nothing worth lying about, fighters have been opting for that for a long time which is why so many of them, including Francis, have flat purses instead of show/win purses.
Also just fucking lol at citing Francis' past pay when he was purposefully staying on his old contract to fight it out. No shit his pay sucked by doing that (and actually Fury himself said it was fine for a new champion and not an established one, go take it up with him). Francis himself said he's lost $15M by not signing the contracts the UFC wanted him to sign for his fights since Stipe. Sitting here and using artificially low numbers doesn't make the point you think it does. It just shows you're dishonest.
