UFC PRIZE MONEY... GOING TO OTHER COUNTRIES

Lol UFC/mma current situation already made "easier" for american fighters to have a career than anybody else
Most legit camp/gym are in USA, most events too.
Scouting for new talents is made likely mostly in USA too

Only argument you can make is that foreigners at equal pay may be relatively "richer" if they actually live in theyr homeland, but you're free to go live there too TS lol

These threads are funny because on social media Russians and Brazilians accuse their fighters of training or leaving to America.

Yes I understand why you're confused

That "funny" feeling you get can be cured

you see we have the highest end training with the biggest flashiest most expensive facilities in the world so naturally people with money come here so that they can get the very very best... we're talking about concierge gyms not some old rusty Soviet training facility where the real champions are built from the ground up

It's the same reason rock stars from other countries come here to have major surgeries because they know they're going to get the very tip top best service in the flashiest and most Posh circumstances

For a tiny group of privileged people America does have the biggest flashy prettiest gyms (and everything else) that's a fact

I'm talking about the aggregate math the average the standard the rank-and-file

A lot of young American consumers are all wrapped up and starry-eyed when looking at the Champions but they never bothered to count the number of top-ranked Fighters...that is the true math of who is really the dominant factor in the sport

For those of you that have been involved with boxing 20 years before mixed martial arts arrived you are well-versed in these intricacies but the modern American Fanboy is lost in The Ether


They can't see anything else behind that big flashy belt

that's the same pro wrestling Fanboys they don't believe in math they believe in Flash drama and salacious details

This Thread is about getting people to pay attention to a salacious detail that is very indicative of who is in charge in the UFC octagon today

All you have to do is follow the money
 







So you can clearly see even with fake Brock getting paid handsomely from his fake wrestling background....

Juicy jones, Juiceing Up his win column with steroids....
(like broc, but at least Jones WON)

and BJ Penn being Hawaiian which trust me is not really an American by any stretch
(I grew up there).... Hawaii has a very well-funded public Parks system where I trained as a youth for free. However I don't know much about BJ's background

and Rhonda, making one list having been dethroned big time...

it's clear Americans are falling behind in MMA and losing their Bank as a result
(Follow the MONEY)

We're (the USA) is living on steroids... fake wrestling drama... technical American status and And a dethroned Legacy to hold on to less than half of the big wealth in UFC history

Thank God we still have a couple folk-style Wrestling champions that earned their way up thanks to the public school system exposing them to high-quality low-cost training...

you see a trend yet?

I have been preaching this line for many years

very few seem to agree with my assessment

So if you can't agree that Americans are falling behind in MMA tell me where the majority of the UFC purses end up?

I'm really a fight Logistics kind of guy and pay very little attention to who gets paid what and zero attention to drama and salacious details

It's mathematically clear that the majority of top-ranked athletes that participate in the UFC are not Americans

In fact it's as low as 32% in the current heavyweight division.

So if Americans are not even the majority of the people competing in the UFC where does the money go?

how about the full stats? The UFC favors americans a lot and I am sure the overall stats show they get a lot more chances. I am not sure of your HW stats either, can you provide a source or list ?

The UFC favors Americans is a massive understatement in fact the UFC pushes American Champions as hard as they can like Brock Lesnar who keeps getting big payday opportunities despite his mediocre performance

And yes I've done all the math multiple times I don't open my mouth unless I know I'm one hundred percent correct

Sorry forgot to put the link in the OP it has been corrected

You're at least twice as smart as a raccoon (your avatar)
I would take that intelligence and go read up on the math.

Americans are not majority of top-ranked participants and are not winning the majority of the prizes

Amanda Nunes is champ with most defenses in UFC = 3, lol.
Jon Jones is kinda longtime champ, but due to all scandals, currently 1 defense lol.
There's your problem UFC.

Thank you for the link,

I see 5 americans in the HW top 10, which is where most of the money is made, and 3 in the top 5.
how does this support your statement? HW 11 and on earn peanuts and are irrelevant to the discussion, in my opinion
also, as we agree I think, americans get a huge push, teh numbers would be lower if it wasn't an american organisation catering mainly for american fans and holding most events in america.
in a "fair" conext, the number of americans would be lower.

American fighters make up 32% of the top 25 ranked heavyweight MMA fighters in the world

Don't get too excited about what's happening right now or who is holding a belt right now

math identifies trends

If you look at the long math it's clear that Americans are falling behind in MMA

Become top-ranked it's about results, and these should be earned inside the cage, nobody else can get a W for you

What i said link to ameteurs willing to make theyr life/career betting on MMA, for these current situation favor americans ore than anybody else

well as I said, specilally if money is the main subject, I believe the top 10 is more relevant than the top 25,
since you're into math, you should recognize that the top 10 probably accounts for more than 75% of the overall earnings of the top 25 HW fighters. I believe your sample is not the most relevant one when talking about prize money, can't be clearer than that.
as on if americans are falling forward, not so sure but it would be a good thing as they are artificially over-represented

In a related story:

US tax system on foreign income is brutal for Americans woking abroad. FATCA that Obama implemented led to unprecedented numbers of Americans renouncing their citizenship. And I can't blame them honestly.

I'm guessing most American UFC fighters who fight on the foreign cards are making less money.

im not a big obama guy but if you renounce your citizenship over taxes you should be deported anyway. traitors

If you been living abroad for your whole life and don't intend to move back to the USA? You should be forced to pay an absurd amount of your money towards US taxes and regularly go through this filing bullshit to keep a US passport? Unlike any other country in the world?

Like I said, I don't blame people who live abroad and don't intend to move back to the US for renouncing their citizenship instead of being subjected to such unfair treatment. FATCA is a disgrace. Even before that, the US is harder on foreign income than anyone.

Top ranking is all about wins?

So how come Brock the mediocre flop Lesnar gets another shot at the title?

Yes I agree you are correct the top 10 most likely have a higher earning potential then the next 10 however things can change in an instant in fight Sports as you well know

Now...if you look at all the other weight classes you might run into this guy named Conor McGregor...

His paydays blow the Curve

Just watch these videos if you don't want to do math



and let's not forget what complete bullshit Brock Lesnar's paydays are

Hey if Fanboys pay the bills I guess he "earned it"

For those of us that are lifelong MMA participants it's pretty shameful to see some roided-out fake wrestling MMA flop pull that kind of Dinero

P.S. just like Randy and Tito, Brock is a product of the public school systems wrestling sports program

None of these men paid to learn how to Grapple they Avail themselves of the Public School Systems Athletics programs

Lot of people nowadays call that socialism
