PFL isn't breaking into anything on ov

I'm fully aware that ACA exist. Of all of the fighters you pointed out, only one or two competed in ACA and none of them were known for competing there. What's your point?

Going to PFL and making UFC money is better than going to LFA for a few hundred dollars. Plus if you excel in PFL, the UFC will make a move for you once your deal is up.

Are you making UFC money in the PFL without winning the tourney prize which doesn't exist anymore?

Probably. Look at the Brazilian court documents with the conversation between Marcelo Brigadeiro and Mick Maynard. They talk about fighters with multiple fights in the UFC making $20K / $20K. Good chance you can get that in the PFL. Entry level in UFC is $10K / $10K which PFL most likely can pay folks.

ONE has paid foreigners $8K as well for their first fight and then $10K for their second fight. Close to UFC entry level money, but obviously kind of difficult to stay active.

yeah of course. thats why people go to PFL in the first place. it's obviously a place where you can make a living, not everyone in PFL wins the tournament. comparing it to LFA is crazy, quite frankly.

what exactly is UFC money? the scale is pretty wide. clay collard obviously makes more money in the PFL than he would if he was in the UFC, and he hasnt won any tournaments.

MMA org founded by a guy who doesn't watch MMA. He just saw the UFC is rich.

Pfl roster is a bunch of Russians? Pretty sure my point was very obvious.

The follow-up would be americans don't care for a roster of all Russian fighters with similar names. PFL was supposed to compete with UFC for the title of Major League MMA org and it failed hard. It's just another minor league now, and will be lucky to survive another year or two.

Knighthead Capital owns sports teams so know what needs to be done. Looking better for PFL just need ESPN to re-sign them.
