Thats cool, shows Gary's memory must be coming back if he could find old memorabilia stashed away in some chest in the attic somewhere

Lol at him making more on UFC 9 than some guys make today.

Maybe they paid per round back then was that the one where he made the final?

He's been much more lucid as of late, which is nice to see, especially since he started doing youtube and other social medias, probably one of few people whose quality of life has gone up because of them.

Is there actually someone earning less than $15k a fight?

Poor Goodridge was 5/5 fighter.

Only guy to punk Dana:

Yeah, on the basic starter contract if you lose you get $12k

I'm not one to incessantly bitch about fighter pay, but that's criminal

 

[WoozyFailGuy]

$15k to face Mark Schultz.

Classic Kuksool Won vs Wrestling matchup

Yes. And 15k in 1996 is 30k now. There are people earning basically 1/3rd of that now. As it became a multi-billion dollar company.

Never underestimate the evil greed of U Fight Cheap.

Production and marketing costs today, and the size of the roster are astronomically higher today, what they're doing at the Sphere probably costs more to put on than the first 100 UFCs

What's the point of that now?
The costs of being a fighter and making a living from it are astronomically higher than they were in the days of the first 100 UFCs.
Think for yourself what rubbish you're spouting.

Dana White shill detected.

Doesn't mean that anything under $25k guaranteed a fight at least in 2024 is acceptable at all time high corporate profits. Dana is dropping $25k hands of blackjack.
Would probably up the finish rate too as the poor guys making $12k wouldn't be worried about being injured or looking fucked up for their day job.

The good old 'is this a retard or just a shill replying to my post?' conundrum.

Right? "World's Premier Fighting League". . . . King of Nothing.

 

[GordonMMARamsey]

15k then is like 30k now right? Could be worse.

What part of what I said is wrong? Is the roster not much bigger? Are the production and marketing costs not higher? I like Dana yes, he's the best at what he does. I don't make a living from fighting so I'm not commenting on that.

[AdamWarlock]

i would love for current unknown ufc fighters revealing their checks

but id guess ufc probably made it illegal to do so in their contract, shady ass mfkers running a mafia at this point

 

[JBJisGOAT14]

Red goof is a conman, has learned from the great con artists of his time in the Fertittas and Trump.

 

[gotBooched]

I always secretly enjoyed watching Goodridge get his ass kicked after what he did to Herrera. All is fair until the ref stoppage but he outweighed that guy by what 65-70 lbs easy. Stop elbowing him in the goddamn head he was freaking dead lol.

Fedor dismantled that guy. It looked like practice for him. Great beatdown.
