Yoel was receiving at least $150K to show

[AimedWithV]

This is quite a sum.

Was it worth it for the UFC? You decide...but probably they already decided, and came with a negative answer.

BTW good luck for him to find a new home with this salary...
Bellator can pay that, but will they go to that direction? They pay even more to Mousasi, Fedor, Wanderlei, Bader...will they want to pay this price to Romero? Who knows

 

[vivi]

He’s worth it

 

[Beastos]

totally worth it, come on

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

Definitely worth it. If anything his age was probably the deciding factor

If you are going to invest resources in an athlete it is preferable to do so with someone who could be with company for a long time

 

[Spongehz]

Gotta think he aint a gatekeeper he beats any up and comer and you can argue won some of his last 4 losses. Easiest to cut him for dana and romero could go bellator, get paid and get the title

 

[Kryptt]

150k is Dana Hooker funds...let's be real...

P.S. Prolly the worst cut choice similar to Moose and Rory.....I guess...

 

[wearetheromans]

That's fuckall for a dude who fights once or twice a year and brings people to watch.

No one is tuning in to watch Joe Scruggs vs div 1 wrestler b or laureli shoobadoo vs Shaniqua

 

[MarloStanfield]

Headlining PPVs watched by millions of people around the world and the UFC only pay $150k to one of its stars, they’re a bunch of scummy fucks

 

[JoshTehV]

yoel gonna do what yoel gonna do and that show money is garbage when he's JG esque in that he does bring the best out of his opponents. Usally, though.

 

[Satan's Daddy.]

Compared to what boxers get.. Yoel should of been getting an extra zero added to those numbers for show.

 

[AssassinFacedBaby]

Dude is in his mid 40s and is 0-4, I’m not that shocked.

 

[cade187]

I don’t like Romero, but he is worth that much. He has a lot of fans and his fighting style ages well. He should have a few more good years at least.

 

[superpunch]

He was making $380K to show

 

[Johnny_Knuckles]

Let's be real. Yoel probably got usada'd again, that coupled with the pay and his age is what probably what pushed yoel and the ufc to make this decision

where's the info from?

 

[260Bomber]

Let's be real. Yoel probably got usada'd again, that coupled with the pay and his age is what probably what pushed yoel and the ufc to make this decision

If he got USADA'd the UFC would never release him.

You don't understand how business works lol

[Blayt7hh]

I am with you TS. I too am outraged whenever a fighter makes decent money m

 

[Kenny95]

At 50 bucks a PPV or is it 60? I say 3k more people buy if Yoel is on the card instead of a contender series no name can. Can't understand that financially speaking.

Edit: hell probably more than 3k Cubans in Miami would purchase alone
