His new limited edition Reebok fighter kit.

That'll go straight to sale.

A raise?

The dude has 23 UFC fights, he always brings it, and he makes 50 to show and 50 to win.

 

[reddhelium]

was wondering that myself.

maybe a performance bonus?

Well he got paid. Stephens vs KZ

Stephen's vs Aldo. Aldo needs a tune up fight before Frankie.

I remember when Dana guaranteed Stephens would get out of jail and fight that same night.

Guess how that went.

He can come over and make snow angels during the week when no ones home

A title shot. Dana has a bad habit of promising those title shots to different fighters while emotional or just high.

They better hurry up then as Aldo/Edgar goes down in about a month.

iirc they tried very hard to get him outta jail but couldn't. But they actually went to great lengths to try to get him out.

Dana was on TV like an hour before still saying the fight was on. That was crazy.

I'm on my phone but here is a link if you're interested. Pretty much just confirms what you said.

There was just no way that was going to happen in the first place esp. with it being a violent charge that got Jeremy locked up and it being near the end of the week. I don't doubt they tried.

Yeah, he wouldn't just level with the fans and admit it was a no go.
