Conor better fight once a month for next 10 months then!
But I don't get the Vince thing
He wishes WWE had anywhere near the profit UFC does
In 2017 UFC made 9-10x the profit WWE did
WWE athletes make millions
WWE pay > UFC pay
Nope
WWE pays 5-8% to its performers for over 200 contractual dates a year
UFC pays about 13%
2014 no wayThe UFC has hit the same wall that boxing and pro wrestling has hit: they have a solid fan base that will watch regardless, but the mainstream are no longer aroused at just the sight of MMA. You need big stars to move that needle. And with Rousey and Brock gone, and negotiations apparently not going so well with Conor, they're in a tough spot.
I think MMA peaked 2009-2014.

lol, you don't know what you are talkin about.
Maybe Lesnar make big money.
But Top star after are Roman Reigns and AJ styles
Reigns made 2,2 millions in 16'
Styles made about the same thing last year.
Most UFC champions make way more in a year.
and those guys work around 275 matches a year....
Dana says a lot of stupid and ridiculous shit. But I don't blame him for this statement. He has a stake in the sport. His job is to promote the sport. He was just being optimistic and passionate about it. Is normal.
