Overeem made $850,000 against Ngannou?

[tithas]

Just google "UFC 218 fighter salaries"... you can do that for any event. The information for everyone on the whole card is always reported as per the commission's rules... so it's public knowedge & it's out there. I've found that the wording above is best to bring up the sources.

Reem's been big pimping for his whole UFC run. You can follow the events that he's been on & google the fight salaries for that event & I'm sure it would amaze how much he's made.

Here's one for your 218 event. Pretty impressive the amount of high drawing payroll so many people on this card got imo

No. Not every commission reports fighter pay and Michigan is one of the ones that does not.

 

[Fstepp]

Would you accept $850K to take that shot, though? We joke about Overeem having no chin but at least he survived it...

I would.

I've seen more apocalyptic shots in my days.

You left out this part:

"Before we go any further, we should note that the Michigan athletic commission doesn’t release fighter pay info, so none of the following salary data for the event is official."

Cash, w/o tax... yes.

 

[WildBoyDan]

No i always go to combat sports forums to read someone's lifestory

It was relevant to what was said.

 

[Rholk]

It was relevant to what was said.

what was said wasn't relevant to begin with

 

[brackis1]

And then he just he cried on JRE that he doesn't want to promote.

Can't have it both ways.

What sort of shyt bootlicker logic is this?
It is undeniable that fighters are grossly underpaid and their baseline salaries should be much higher regardless of how much they like the shitty fake beefs that braindead fans like yourself desire.

 

[WildBoyDan]

what was said wasn't relevant to begin with

Neither is this but you still said it

 

[High Altitude]

For 850k I would take that knockout any day.

Reem has had the luckiest timing when it comes to contract negotiations, and when you couple that with his international draw, he gets paid good money and should.

 

[Rholk]

Neither is this but you still said it

I fear we may be stuck in a loop of sorts

 

[WildBoyDan]

I fear we may be stuck in a loop of sorts

Let's agree to disagree and leave it there. Haha

 

[brackis1]

He negotiated a very favorable contract his last time out....he still sells, but after that last fight, I hope he's putting some in the bank because it looks like it might be over for the Reem.

I like how the average fan is so braindwashed and jaded by underpayment that one top heavyweight making a few hundred thousand bucks to be at the top of the world's most popular combat sport suddenly becomes a "very favorable contract". Meanwhile college football coaches who never play a minute of sport are getting 10 million a year for a 13 game schedule.

Makes sense depending on which comes first: with fans so dumb and indifferent it's easy to underpay if you're the go-to league for entertainment because nobody has the spine or the brain to stop them.

 

[Dusty Rhodes]

Some people take that shot for free on the streets !!

Check Worldstar !!

OOH... great call... sorry bout that. I'll edit that in to my original statement so as not to cause any confusion.

Man I just breazed on through that to the data... will keep a sharper eye on that in the future.

 

[Streeter]

I wouldn‘t take the punch he took for a mil

I would take 2 for half that
