How would Michael Chandler do in the UFC?

[GSP_37]

He would kick some top tier ass and make some of them quit.

Yea, I always thought Coker was cool, but he's only slightly better than Dana. My boy @FrankieNYC opened my eyes and revealed how little he pays some of these guys.

Scott is a promoter... he is no different from Dana.
They still offer guys 250/250 to fight.
And just look at the pay outs for the lower end guys.

I can easily see Scott stiffing Chandler of with 50K a fight so he can hire ex UFC fighters like Rampage and Sonnen for the bigger salaries.

I took a look at the guy

I bet you are fat!!!

Chandler vs anyone in the top 10 is an awesome matchup.

Ideally, him vs:

Gaethje
Alvarez III
Barboza
Pettis
Ferguson
Nurmagomedov
etc etc etc

I would bet all of my savings on fergie because of his style. And all on chandler if he fought garthge also based on style!! Every one else is close to a 50/50

I feel like he'd be another Gaethje. Both have gone through some insane wars.

Yeah maybe also a new management he must have renewed his contracts a few times in Bellator.
Anyway :
Michael Chandler: $50,000 (no win bonus)
def. Goiti Yamauchi: $23,000

God what chump change.

Easily be number one contender within a few fights

So not even top 15

I have no idea, but when people make threads about how UFC fighters are paid shit, the ACs list is gospel.
So I guess it should be good enough for Bellator fighters too.

I do think he makes more, but I never seen any figures in any shape or form. So no idea what he makes.
And yes I do think Scott is not a saint that pays fighters their value.

Its funny how AC reports are only accurate when it puts UFC in a bad light, huh?

But to be fair both companies pay more than AC reports show.

Yea, I always thought Coker was cool, but he's only slightly better than Dana. My boy @FrankieNYC opened my eyes and revealed how little he pays some of these guys.

My issue with Coker isn't really fighter pay.
The company lost money in 2017, so they don't have the money to spend that UFC does, but they still outbid on some (reason they are in red)

my issue is the guys that sell tickets to be on a card by a company Bellators size.
That should not be happening
Also having 18 fights on some cards (so more locals sell tix)
I understand a local indy doing it, but not a worldwide brand owned by Viacom.

So Coker treats the known guys great & the others like cattle
