Pereira will fight his fifth fight in 14 months. That's a fight every 3 months on average. Do you consider it as possible exploitation?

[CombatCyborg]

Is there such thing as anti-exploitation laws in mma? For example, in normal jobs there are laws that make it illegal to overwork your employees.

Alex is showing how it's done. That's the ideal for all fighters, but it's gotten rarer in recent years.

Imagine if TS knew about one night tournies

LOL

Imagine if this tit knew about anything at all sir lol.

I think he is a Conor fan

 

[Theynevergoeasy]

This has to be the same guy that made the thread complaining Alex fights too much. Lol

 

[StonedLemur]

I think he is a Conor fan

I doubt he really has any time to be a fan of anyone considering how much he pontificates sir lol

 

[ryun253]

Typical Chad Muay Thai teenager

Exactly. Or how often boxers like Sugar Ray Robinson fought.

 

[mkt]

Pereira needs to consult with TS, Conor and Khamzat....so he'll never fight again.

he's not complaining, quite the opposite. He thanked the UFC for this opportunity to headline the card at International Fight Week.

 

[El Fernas]

Pereira is basically striking while the iron is hot...imagine the purse they offered him to put his title on the line on short notice, how short? Probably back to the canceled press conference.

He was discussed for UFC 301 right after 300, the man is not afraid to step in.

Are you the same guy who was complaining that he fights too often?

There is always that one guy.

 

[Blanqa Blanqua]

Exactly. Or how often boxers like Sugar Ray Robinson fought.

Let's hope his thread posting is as infrequent as he hopes fighter's bouts are.

 

[Pharenheit]

This reeks of union line of thought

 

[runjay]

bro yer lucky it’s 20-woke-24 and not the old days. we key warriors were a fearsome lot. you woulda got bamboozled.

 

[nostradumbass]

Some of these other bums should take notes. They fight once/year, turning down fights and sitting out waiting for a hand picked opponent and cry about not getting paid enough, meanwhile Pereira shows up 2 1/2 years ago in his mid 30s, doesn't even speak English, even has a recent KO loss, but just says yes and shows up whenever they ask him to and the dude is probably going to come away with like $11-12 million in just over a year.

 

[filthybliss]

His body, his choice. But seriously, its gonna be annoying as fuck if he loses and then fans just start tattooing him as "washed" like Volk....

We should really cherish fighters like this that stick to minimal drama and get the job done. Also Jiri fought the last time that Poatan did so its not like they have uneven duration of rest afaik.

 

[justmark]

Conor lost every fan he has ever had.

 

[StonedLemur]

Conor lost every fan he has ever had.

You were right btw.

Andrei gets 350k, and I was think about Hunto who was making 700k.

 

[Steve Fox]

lol ffs

 

[jeff7b9]

Shit thread is another example why whiteheads shouldn't make threads.

 

[jeff7b9]

No, fighters today are just pussies.

Fedor fought 7x in 2003. 5 times in MMA and fought Oleinik bare knuckle full contact sambo that year and also Magomed Magomedov in full contact sambo that year as well. He had 23 fights from 2000-2004 + at least 20 full contact sambo fights.

Mirko fought 8x in 2004.

Barnett fought 7x in 2006.

Igor Vov fought 5x in one night before.

This is nothing new.

5x in one night is fucking insane.

I knew Igor was a bad ass motherfucker even within the subset of bad ass motherfuckers, but that is some gangster shit right there.
