come on dana and ufc

[Fluffernutter]

A couple of hours ago, the NCAA wrestling tournament came to a conclusion.

On other news sites, the comments section were peppered with "are any of them going to go to the UFC?"

If any of the wrestlers read this MMA Junkie article, I assume they will go the Konrad route and sell agricultural commodities.

Shameful

Or they can go to Bellator.

7 fights with the UFC and they treat him like that? This is exactly why these fuckers need to unionize, it's fucking pathetic that they haven't already. If tennis players, actors and bowlers can fucking do it, you'd have to be some sort of head-up-your-own-ass dipshit to think fighters can't. I'm starting to believe fighters are really that fucking stupid though because they haven't.

he cant help that he showed up to fight made weight and not get paid the 5k that reebok already paid the ufc. weak.

I agree I wasn't saying it was right I was saying that I bet apart of the criteria is that he fought and the fact he didn't despite it wasn't his fault he still hasn't addressed the criteria to earn the reebok money .
its a fucking robbery for sure but it is what it is .

 

[TITS]

Disgraceful.

Sad. Didn’t Zuffa usually give guys their show AND win money in situations like this?

I could see him complaining and making the ufc look bad in the public eye backfiring on him. Could be gone with his next loss

Bellator.... get paid son

if its not in the contract => stupid.

if its in the contract => sue them.

 

[ufcbrass]

there is more to this story that I can't go into right now.

 

[Dark Individual]

What if it's those WME fellows behind this? Zuffa didn't have an issue paying guys in situations like this, so I don't really think it's all Dana tbh.

Agreed. Fertitas were much better in this regard.

 

[ThulsaDooom]

This is why fighters need a union. Guaranteed money from guaranteed contracts. Even your newest and youngest prospects shouldn't be going into debt because their opponent dropped out at the last second. Disgraceful.

This is the difference between WME and the Fertittas. Rich guys who took a chance on a fringe sport and helped build it and profit from it. Versus a business who's only goal is maximize profit while they own the company, even if that profit comes from cheating fighters out of small amounts.
