Why Francis is so concerned about money?

[ehxsur]

- Less than ten years ago he was one of the poorest human being in a third world country (cameroon)

- less than five years ago he was a poor man in a first world country (france)

- now he is milionnaire (he did that pretty fast, props to him)

He should be grateful from what he have now, why people are becoming so ungrateful and greedy more they get rich?

I would praise dana everyday if i was in his position

it's above me....

Less than ten years from now he might be retired. Needs to make it while he still can.

 

[RoyJonesJr]

Because people make so much more doing fuck all (Youtubers, Youtube Fighters, Boxers, NFL, NBA, literally every other major sport)

UFC does not split revenue equally with fighters

 

[BonesWinckleJones]

earned more than a million last fight - taking loans for the camp

Because he gets hit, kicked, and thrown to the mat by 230lb+ men for a living while a bunch of people like me pay $60 a pop to look on for our entertainment.

you’d want every penny you could too. Or you’ll be gleefully taken advantage of by some guy smart enough to not be getting hit, punched, and thrown to the mat for a living who can piss away the money he could pay you on dirt bikes, watches, gambling it away on a poker game, and/or hookers….while you’re bruised up, pissing blood, recovering on a bed somewhere.

I mean, if you’re one of those super talented hardworking (but low self esteem) people who say to themselves “I don’t deserve more, I’m just happy for this right now and I’ll just work harder for nothing more than this…”, companies will love you. You’re sure to find people willing to work you to death and step over your carcass.

He wants to be paid what he's worth.

He's in an organisation that gives LESS to it's athletes as a % of income than ANY other major sport in the world.

He's putting his health at risk every fight. Asking for a fair days pay is pretty normal.

You don't get to force people to expect less and suggest they outta just be grateful for scraps because they come from Africa, when they are representing a worldwide, but mostly USA corporation. He's the heavyweight champ. Pay the man Dana.

Bcuz Bork Lazer called naganu a POS

Oh the whole being grateful argument lol. Obviously he probably has someone who is educated on business and finance telling him that he's getting ripped off compared to other professional athletes at his level.

Na, I want my money Dana.

 

[dogsdonutsdragons]

It makes sense . I think he’s probably gotten offers for boxing fights that make his ufc pay look bad. And you are only young once and on top of your game but I think it’s better to compare boxing to something like fencing that it is to mma and fighting . Only a very select few can make that transition.

Yes, so fighting once a year will sure help him achieve financial security? I mean fighting 2-3 times per year as promised wouldn’t pay nearly as much, right??

Active champ, my ass.

 

[Bearknuckle]

Yeah why would anyone ever care about money ever…

 

[FIghtxIQ]

He wants super fights and Dana/UFC isn't giving it to him so he can make the super fight money. He wanted Jones fight, he wanted to box Fury. He can't box in UFC, they won't let him so it seems like he wants boxing money and is considering going to boxing instead of extending his UFC contract. That's where the contract disputes are stemming from with Ngannou and UFC.

 

[ChoKuRei]

His management must be whispering sweet nothings into his ear since he was knocking at the door for the title

 

[GueseGuy]

Are you 12? Money makes the world go round. Nobody cares about being UFC fighter unless you’re making money. You UFC casual fanboys are pathetic getting upset anytime somebody wants money. I swear you UFC casual fanboys are up to some weird stuff with Dana. Especially Gramps @TempleoftheDog and his boyfriend @mkt

 

[OmegaRugal]

Because most people are never satisfied and want more.

That goes for Dana, the owners, the fighters, their managers, agents and yes even us fans.

 

[pick999]

Dj got paid paid crap for all his title defenses and francis will get paid almost the same for 7 of dj title defenses alone one fight

 

[Amm]

What a retarded ass thread.
Here is a brain buster only the greatest of philosophers are able to answer. Here is another threat title OP pondered before deciding on this one :" why doesnt francis work for free?"
Lmmfao....are you dumb?

 

[Kwic]

Hi Dana.

 

[markys00]

Looks like sherdoggers are clueless about money yet again. Ngannou gets paid pretty well

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Agree. Francis is acting like a diva.

Let him go and box one of the top guys so they knock some senses.
