[VIDEO] Cruz says Faber has shares in mmafighting and makes money from TAM members

[Haj01]

I don't think he said he has shares in mmafighting.com. I think he was referring to a management company.

Faber showing some respect after the fight:

I'm not sure why Dom continues being a prick?

Shares in MMAfighting.. aren't they owned by Vox Media..

Interesting if he has an ownership in MMAfighing.com


And NBCUniverasl apparently have a big ownership stake in Vox Media..

Faber is rolling with the big boys!

I forgot about the Garbrandt fight. Maybe Cruz is the type of person who feels like if he now acts all humble and nice to Faber, it's going to seem like he doesn't take him seriously anymore. It's like one of those scenarios that are interpreted differently by everyone. Say if you saw a kid sitting on his own at lunch in school, would you go over and keep him company to make him feel better, or would you feel it's better to just not even make him aware that he looks lonely.

I'll seat with the kid. I was that lonely kid once so I hate seeing that shit. Haa

Cruz touched on this on the MMAHOUR this week ..

He pointed out that Faber acts nice/like a friend, briefly in moments like this to benefit himself and what he's selling.

he wants to be liked by sherdoggers

Small gestures like that can make all the difference. It's good to come through struggle imo, builds humility in a person

Lol! Maybe, he sure is trolling Faber like a sherdogger

 

[xx madskillz xx]

Lately the more I hear Cruz talk the more im getting annoyed with him.Who gives a shit if Faber makes money off his fighters.Like others pointed out its not like he is scamming them.He is training them and its his gym.

This is business people. Shady shit happens all the time while being covered with a smile.


It's easier to catch bees with honey than vinegar. Remember that.

That it does. Haaaa

So people are really supposed to be mad at Faber for having good business sense? You know the owners of Sherdog let us post here for free and then they make money from advertising. Ooooohhhh, how dare they come up with a rock solid idea to make a buck?

 

[phatron]

I didn't hear of this before, I remember Cruz saying at a press conference that Faber makes money from his fighters but here he really breaks it down. If it's true that's pretty sad.

The gym/team take a % from each fighter at almost every MMA gym AFAIK. This is nothing new.

How do you think all the coaches, rent, weights, water, overhead, etc get paid for?

People bitching about this have no clue how overhead works lol.

 

[Metheus]

So Faber, who probably put in most of the money and who had the big name before any of the other TAM members (only WEC PPV headliner) gets a cut of the profits from his business? Oh no!

He's not doing it right. He still fights and gets a small percentage. He should be like Zuffa and get a big percentage off of ALL the fighters while not being fighters at all.

 

[Bmurray]

Did you guys think Faber was running a charity?

/bonk

 

[kimocomplex]

is having shares in that website a bad thing?

im not familiar with the site but it is biased towards Urijah/TAM?

 

[Davey Crockett]

That it does. Haaaa

Mfw building humility
