yeah right,
you gotta understand that it's not like you want to fight in Pride , so you just go to Japan and they let you fight.It's alot more compicated.
I just cannot believe that Monson got paid only 5 g's

there'd be no shame in fighting for a grand at all if i was a rec fighter....and even a pro...ufc isn't the only thing you hafta fight in...
or is it in the contract?

if you're fighting for peanuts (willingly) while you're making some other guy hundreds of thousands of dollar you're a freakin idiot
-
some guys dont have the fan base or the skill level to ask for that much...but you're right...
it's all in perspective i guess. if you suck at what you do...you're not gonna get paid! look at forrest..hasn't been around long in the scheme of things...but his charisma and fan drawn make him worth money! you are what you make yourself out to be
