Rich Franklin — $45,000
pretty surprising
-
alvin got less winning than gurgel losing
-
Wow...Franklin on $45!? And Tim got more than Andersen...WTF!!!???
-
Shit Vera got more then Anderson.. I can't believe Tim got that big of a payday... DAMN DANA LAY OFF THE PIPE!!!!!
-
45k is nothing to risk your face like that. the ufc brought in 2million. wonder what ppv sales brought in. man dana has a monopoly >:(
-
these professional fighters getting 3k is just stupid
-

yeah I know....the camera crew probably makes more than that
the people settin up and tearing down the freakin octagon probably make more than that !
-
but some of the 3k fighters can move up and get quite a raise in less than a year where as the rest stay at the same pay

Dana is a snake man, these guys have to hope they get FOTN or SOTN just to pay some damn bills. You train for at least 3 months for 3 grand. Id punch Dana in the fuckin face for that shit!

my gut feeling is that that's why nick diaz is'nt under a UFC contract anymore..

Probably because he lost like 3 or 4 fights in a row.

there's little or no shame in losing to 2 guys that are ranked in the top ten in that class (sherk & diaz) and joe riggs is no slouch either,his last fight in the UFC was a win over Neer so that's probably NOT why he's not under contract
even his brother nate said nick was gettin screwed over by the UFC after he won the TUF final right to rogans face on TV
who knows though,maybe you're right ?
still say a win over the guy they consider #1 should at least get ya in the door of that top ten
-
Probably because he lost like 3 or 4 fights in a row.
And lets not forget about Gomi...I dont give a shit if he smokes weed, he beat Gomi's ass!
-

All the fights he lost were to top notch guys in close decisions. He destroyed Gomi in an epic battle. I like Nick. A real STREET fighter in the CAGE.

The UFC boycott needs to be spread to all corners of the earth!!!!!
-

UFC is just another american corporation where only the selected few REALLY make the money,you start out low on the totem poll and you work your way up just like any other free enterprise....
I'm pretty sure at this point dana dos'nt even look at MMA as a sport,sure he markets it as a sport, and he'll tell you it's a sport,but I'm fairly sure at his levels it's HIS business...... and he'll let his fighters call it a sport,and he'll let the fans call it a sport

id like to see what the payment is in boxing, if we dont talk about the big names but the undercards and the payment for those coming off 3 losses in a row etc...
i wonder if its that high.

absolutely. undercards in boxing make atleast 20k. if they are ppv i am sure they are in the 6 figure range. the embarrassment with the ufc is that the MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD made 120k.

really. in every organization?
and besides, boxing been around forever. and a lot of money over the years been poured into that, where as ufc is still new.
over time the payments will rise.

Oscar de la hoya 25 million
floyd mayweather 10 million

And if he would have lost it would only have been half that...sad!
-

Werd....noone gives a shit how much money I make a year. Sure I bitch about it, but theres nothing I can do about it. Deal with it and stop acting like little hoes!
-

if they are on ppv it is absolutely true. i have seen small boxing events where the healiners got 10k and the undercards got 3k. that is a non televised sorry event compare that to the ufc and tell me thats not right.
on a ppv boxing card the fighters are making the cash

How much do you guys think Dana white makes a year or per show?

well the sales from tickets pays the fighters. so you take away whatever it takes to pay the location and set up of the event and pocket the rest from the ppv
