Lets not forget, hes family now once hes in, Thats more than money.
So Tim is complaining that the UFC pay too little when the truth is Jackson's are charging too much. The numbers that Tim put out there are either complete BS, or he is just terrible with his money.
It is a great gym but id dont understand why he would lie about that. Something is wrong here..Maybe two years ago. I can try to google it for you but I have no idea which one it is. It was a video interview and the angle was that Jackson's gym was such a great gym.
If the UFC paid Tim one million dollars and he spent it on hookers and blow, Flex would be whining about Zuffa not providing him a live-in counselor to help overcome these vices.You again? This guy comes into every fighter pay thread and attacks the UFC and the people defending them.

13% is ridiculous. He shouldn't pay any more than a new 17 year old kid using the facilities that's there for the same amount each day. Of course, he should pay more for Jackson's services and a percentage is fine if thats how greg charges.
More than likely just terrible with money.
Let's see how fast this devolves into a "Greg Jackson is the source of every problem in MMA" shit/hate fest.
Anyway, I think it's crazy he is paying 10% to his manager (many sports agents in other mainstream sports get around 5%, not 10%, although this is debatable), then having to pay Greg Jackson another 10% along with 13% going to gym fees.
Please keep the discussion on topic, and not about whether fighters are under paid or not. Let's discuss the issue of his expenses and if anyone knows what entails "gym fees".
Greg making that Heisenberg money.Jackson is making it rain with the amount of fighters that work with him.
Then again, it is probably cheaper to live in albuquerque than it is in boca raton.
