How much money is Jones trying to ask for to fight Tom?

[deadshot138]

For a dude who drops $10k a night on casinos and an untold amount on booger sugar, there's no such thing as "fuck you" money

It'll be at least 15 Million. Allegedly (I don't have irrefutable proof), Brock Lesnar made 8 Mil in 2001 for UFC 200, and using an inflation calculator, that's about 14 Million in 2024. So, I'm thinking that Jones will want to top that. I'll go out on a limb and say 20 Million.

10 Mil he will ask, actually 15 Mil.
15 Mil he will ask three days a week. One of these days he will ask 15 Mil two days of the week. So, 20 Mil a week he will ask.

However much it takes to make the UFC decline so he doesn't have to fight Tom, and can say it's because he was lowballed.

I'm not sure if an actual figure exists. He could accidentally hit some absurd amount he didn't they would pay and end up taking the fight. But with the ufcs track record of being cheap enough to allow it to stop legendary fights from being booked, I doubt it.

Couldn’t imagine a world where 30mill doesn’t get the fight done. It would give Jon a payday that is worthy of risking an undefeated GOAT legacy over against a young hungry HW who is in incredibly dangerous but is an extremely low draw by comparison. Anything less than that genuinely isn’t worth it. I know that most of you would argue against this stance but it’s the reality. Jon is the one with everything to lose, he’s already fought and beat the best for almost 2 decades at this point they need to show him the $$$. The UFC can afford it for one of their biggest stars and indisputably the best MMA fighter of all time to make what Dana himself said “would be the greatest MMA matchup of all time”.

+1 dollar more than Dana is willing to pay for sure.

If anyone knows, it's for sure the people that post here.

About 350 million

“FU money” = “Stop asking me to fight Tom” = >$30M?
I bet they’re just about ready to move mountains to make the fight happen.
But whatever their final offer is, Jones will price himself over that.

Then Dana will come out, Jon sucks he was never any good, scared of Tom, Tom is the man, greatest of all time, pound for pound great, etc.

20x more than he'll ask for Alex, which is the fight he really wants.

 

[sonhow]

One MILLION dollars!

Same as he wanted for Francis, enough that it'll never happen and he can claim it's just the UFC holding it up not him.
