Maybe Lorenzo is sticking it to the fans?
Because too many people perpetuate rumors that MMA fighters don't make any money.
Yeah, trolls like Rich Franklin, a former champ with 20 UFC fights, who is one of the smartest guys in the sport, says he didn't make enough money to retire on.
Must feel good to all of the fighters that have been slaving away in the UFC busting their asses to be at the top. She comes in and already is one of the all time top earners (according to Dana) even though she isn't a huge draw.
Pretty sad to think that if she wasnt hot, none of this would be going on right now.
why do they keep harping on this?
we all know that champions make millions.
we (those of us that read mma news beyond forums) know that Zuffa uses tournament economic theory payment structure (think if all NFL players made $100k and superbowl winners got $10m) instead of payment structures other sports negotiate with players unions.
and we know that Zuffa keeps more revenue than boxing promoters, because boxing has a multitude of promoters and Zuffa is 1 promoter. and therefore the economic structures are completely different.
so what, exactly, are they getting out of telling us again and again that Ronda makes millions?
Pretty sad you think this is only going on because she's hot. Name me another girl that has a record arm bar streak, 100% finish rate, and an Olympic medal in judo.
Do you actually think that if she was butt ugly she would have all these modelling gigs and photo shoots to earn all this money? No. She would make decent money in the UFC for her amazing talent and thats it.
yes, rich franklin, 39, mw champ 2005-2006, isn't wealthy enough to know he doesn't ever have to work again in his life.
The only reason she is getting modelling gigs and photo shoots is because of her AMAZING TALENT. Without that, she's not hot enough.
Stop being daft.And you think that's acceptable? Rich was a main event guy for a company that was making 100's of millions a year. He should be living like a fat cat for the rest of his life.
