Something no one is talking about

As per Dana White "The UFC is spending $10 Million on promoting UFC 200"

The Combined fighter payroll for UFC 200 will be far less than $10 Million, and has never EVER been anywhere close to that. How much money is the UFC expecting to bring in and how LITTLE of that money goes to the fighters is disgusting.

The fighter pay issue is the real problem with the sport, I am not a Connor fan boy, but he is paid to fight- his tweet got more attention than the stupid world tour the UFC had planned. If a fighter promotes a fight then gets hurt they end up getting paid nothing

It's like anything. If you're the only McDonald's worker pulling your weight, constantly bringing in mates to keep the revenue flowing... Then yeah. You're allowed a Big Mac from time to time

Man, nothing against you TS, but the flood of Conor threads is unbearable.
I'm off to the War Room, to relax in good company

And don't forget, it's a mediocre card with Conor on it that would do 1 million+ buys, it's a dogshit card without him and should be on Fox for free....UFC should have stacked this card to the tits.

card is mediocre even with him, I agree... fighters need to earn a piece of the pie not just the crumbs that they have been getting. fighters gotta have a union for fair wages. it's pathetic
