Vadim Nemkov pay vs Glover pay

That's more than 90% of UFC fighters make and this is without sponsors.

Oh the sponsor myth again, ok.

Its always funny seeing people bring that up and then seeing fighters come out like Bendo and Rory and Jury and being like I made more from Reebok than I did for a Bellator title fight.

How much is the UFC paying you to be a volunteer shill?

Here is your proof. Glover made 2.7M in 22 fights in the UFC averaging close to 120k per fight.

Nemkov has been making 300k a fight since he bacame the champion (without sponsors) so it's safe to say he already made more than a million in Bellator before his last fight where he made 1.3M. That's roughly 2.3- 2.5 million he made in 9 fights in Bellator and he is fighting again in 2 months to defend his title against Romero in the comain event of Fedor vs Bader on CBS where he will make another 300k + sponsor money so its safe to say that after his 10th fight in Bellator he will have made close to or just under 3M.

That's more than Glover made in 22 fights in the UFC lol


U FIGHT CHEAP

<{walkerwhut}>

Your numbers are complete fiction, but lol anyway at using "since he became champion" for one guy and some outdated, estimated average for earlier fights of another. Glover made $600k+PPV for his last fight, which is probably over $1 million and less than $2 million.

Wait, you're telling me reigning champions with multiple defenses make more than 90% of journeymen and non champs? Total mind blower.
 
He said he got more in his first two Bellator fights than he did in his entire UFC run.

Yea because UFC pays their fighters shit and deleverages them with 10 fight deals for 20k a fight.

So yea if Corey was trapped in a deal like that he could easily make that in one Bellator fight.

Rory Macdonald got 50k to fight for a title in the UFC.

UFC = U FIGHT CHEAP

It would have worked out at 500k a fight for Corey though, you reckon he actually gets that much?

Yes. Only UFC fans are so conditioned to believe fighters should make peanuts.

Corey Anderson beat the last 2 UFC LHW champions and would have a great chance of beating the current champion. Why shouldn't he make 500k for a fight? Anyone on this level in any other sport makes millions but stupid UFC fans think he shouldn't. Not calling you a stupid UFC fan, Im talking about the other dorks in this thread.

He's just never been popular, he used to get actively booed in the UFC, I have a hard time thinking sponsors are laying out that kind of money for him.

You also get quite a few fighters on Bellator main cards with no sponsors which I doubt would happen if the space was so valuable to advertisers.
 
Tony Ferguson made like 500k in fight vs lee meanwhile dj defending his belt only getting paid 300k

Corey has one of the best management's in the sport and he's a high level fighter. To think he shouldn't make that much money when any athlete of this level in any other mainstream sport makes millions is absurd to me.

UFC is a toxic company that pays most of their fighters peanuts. It's important to understand this.

I would believe it if it was PFL but Bellator are generally sensible and turn a profit so I don't think they pay him more than a couple of hundred grand tops (still more than than he was making in the UFC)

Are sponsors making that up to 500k for Corey Anderson?

<WhoJeff>

If Bellator pays a fighter 200k and that fighter makes another 200k from sponsors then that money doesn't come out of Bellators profits and the fighter still gets paid more.

Yes, I just find it very hard to believe sponsors are paying Corey that much.
 
Who knows...Mousasi got a great deal from sponsors as well and bought rolexes for his entire family

Gegard was always smart with his investments though.

10 years ago you could make good money from in cage sponsors but social media has changed the game. You can still make money from sponsors but they'd rather pay for you to promote their product once a week on social media rather than twice a year in the cage.

Yeah I know..but I remember when he was in the UFC, he did an interview and said his wish is to buy a rolex but they are too expensive and laughed.

And suddenly in Bellator bought not one but 10 all at once.

Tim Johnson also said he gets paid A LOT.

Trainer said he gets life changing money on that sherdog interview before the Bahati or Biyong fight, can't remember exactly.

Not sure exactly if it's from sponsors or they get a lot more than we see on those payouts but nobody ever complained about money in Bellator
