Why are people so distracted by other peoples' money? All these threads, it's really quite odd.
 
There are a lot of estimated numbers taken into this
 
Dat Sage Northcutt money <{silvanormal}>

dude is not even ranked and already doing veteran money.

The weird thing about it to me is that it's a new phenomenon in this sport too. 10 years ago nobody talked about fighter pay, PPV #s, gate #s, etc.
Nobody cared lol
 
CM Punk...
<{cruzshake}><{nope}><{hughesimpress}><36>

I'm at least glad to see there are a few real fighters above him on a single payday.
 
This is complete, non-science base extrapolation, but it looks like maybe the top 40 people actually make a good living at fighting. Which leaves 460 not doing as well as they had hoped. I know theres always performance bonuses, but getting your head kicked in for 60K a year doesnt sound like fun
 
MM 6 years as champ 11 title defenses. Has a pool from Walmart in his postage stamp sized back yard and this was probably bought with his Xbox sponsorship. Fighters are living large.
 
CM Punk? $503,500

Conor will probably make more than all of them combined in the Khabib fight.

Nah. We did talked about fighter pay. This was pre-Conor/social media era so you kinda ran out of things to talk about.
 
Alistair si Hugh with only one fight?i want the same manager as him
 
in light of this thread and see that DC made a million to fight miocic, a guy in another thread was arguign with me how MM deserved to get a million to fight dillashaw, haha

oh actually DC made 500k, haha
 
Nice to see these guys making a good living. But don't forget about all the guys making 10/10....
 
LOL francis is the biggest joke of all time....surprised they give him that much.
