Without numbers there is no discussion. Cheers.
We do have numbers - we know from court filings the UFC is paying an average of 18% of total revenue coming in to fighters for the past decade.
That is every single penny attributed to fighters, including PPV points, bonuses, even the insurance policy and performance institute.
So we know fighters are getting paid out pennies on the dollar in arguably the most lopsided overall deal in sports.
It isn't complicated to unpack why so many of these guys are begging for bonuses or saying they are broke live on TV.
