Rockhold challenges Bisping to a winner takes all.

[aker2703]

To be fair, all Bisping needs to do to in that bet is not engage in the first round.

my point is. Why fuck around with your gameplan to win 80K, when you are making 425K anyway.

 

[aker2703]

Yeah, I guess so. Isn't that more money than mighty mouse makes lol

gonna look into that.

yes he does lmao.

Bisping make more than any guy under 170lbs.... even when you take PPV $$$ into account.

I think the top $$$ for 155,145,135,125 is around 120K show/120K win per fight.

what currency is that

 

[Fyreborn]

Wow...most top HWs don't even get $400K.

I know Bisping is important for the English market but he's still a gatekeeper - and I'm not sure if he's even that anymore, he's declining.

$400K for a gatekeeper (at best) headlining shows in China at 6am EST is pretty crazy.

Anyway, while I think Rockhold beats Bisping very easily I do not think he'd finish him in the 1st. Rockhold isn't known for his striking power and subbing Bisping is very unlikely.

Bisping fights do a lot better in the US then people realize.

Hendo vs Vitor does 750K viewers in the US
Bisping vs Vitor does 1.9 million viewers in the US

Bisping vs Mayhem did 2.4 million for the TUF finale.

400K for someone like Bisping is just ridiculous

...

It could be a slight exaggeration, but Mike Swick reported that fellow AKA member, Luke Rockhold is very much enjoying Macau, China as he was up $10k when this pic was taken! I bet the middleweight beast is happy the UFC flew him out to China for the fights!

 

[StedGoof]

I hate Bisping, but Rockhold couldn't play the roll of the ignorant american more if he tried.

It might seem that way because so many good fighters are paid nothing.

 

[aker2703]

...

gotcha so those 1000 dollar bills are worth about 150 US dollars.

I know. This could very well be a ploy by Rockhold, but I doubt Bisping bites. Just saying that the proposal isn't all that bad.

He puts bums on seats, that's why he's paid so well.

 

[Miiiiiiighty]

Would be interesting for Bisping if their pay was anything close.

Ridiculous why would he risk losing 400k to win 80 ?

 

[ostlerrage]

easy win for rock hold. hence the call out. much better than a machida matchup. although a win over machida means a legit title challenge.

 

[Remmy]

lol this guy...

 

[minotauro11]

He gets the same amount of money as Weidman..??

 

[Sosua]

I really don't like Rockhold, he's a better fighter than Bisping sure, but unlikely to finish him in a round.
