Why Francis is so concerned about money?

[jooohnmatrix]

- Less than ten years ago he was one of the poorest human being in a third world country (cameroon)

- less than five years ago he was a poor man in a first world country (france)

- now he is milionnaire (he did that pretty fast, props to him)

He should be grateful from what he have now, why people are becoming so ungrateful and greedy more they get rich?

I would praise dana everyday if i was in his position

it's above me....

They are never happy and always the victims.

How many people buy a PPV that is put together by DW in an organization he built from the ground up?

give the man his due, dude. everyone has their role and DW's is and always has been instrumental.

They did a great job and they became very wealthy from it but now they are holding back the sport because they mostly have a monopoly and won’t make the biggest fights. If they let Jones and Francis out of their contracts I’m sure someone else could find a way to make money by putting on that fight. Imagine if the NFL said “we are the premiere football league but Brett Rodgers is in the bench because we can’t afford him”. I don’t care how much money Dana makes if the big fights happen.

Brett Rodgers? lol

I agree to an extent but in that case then the UFC should have a league minimum, as I've always promoted. IF you sign a 3 year contract your minimum should be 2 fights/year and $120k/year. There should be a no guarantee pool for undercards, etc

 

[Ackmed]

Why would his past financial situation impact his current worth?

So if he grew up in the US in a middle class family then the UFC should pay him more?

Does your employer adjust employee wages based on where they grew up and whether or not they were broke in the past? (Or if your self employed, do you ask about employees' past financial situation to determine fair pay?) Lol

Dj got paid paid crap for all his title defenses and francis will get paid almost the same for 7 of dj title defenses alone one fight

DJ is one of the most underrated and under paid champs of all time. He got no appreciation despite being one of the greatest to ever do it.

DJ always knew Dana was screwing him lol, glad he got paid elsewhere. Guy did get a flying armbar victory in a championship bout no less.
