Of course the biggest problem with this is........MMA isn't worked so they can lose millions and millions of dollars and storylines if someone loses......CroCop being an example.
Sometimes I think UFC should take a lesson from Pride and feed a few tomato cans to top guys so they can get their big fights...... The reason I won't pay to watch an MMA event, especially one promoted by UFC and Dana White is that they are almost all essentially 1 match cards. If i had paid to watch the one last night I'd have felt totally ripped off. That promoting is making them money but the 1 match card for 50 bucks doesn't personally appeal to me. |

Wowzers, according to the LA Times, Liddell is out half a million because of that knockout. He still got a half mil payout, but a win would've netted him another 500K. Ouch.
Jackson got 450K for the win. |

Wow, I knew Liddell was making huge bank, but I didn't think his win bonus was 500K.
I'm happy Slampage won a belt, but I am really not looking forward to watching a good all around fighter like Hendo get manhandled because he is too small at 205 compared with Jackson. I would much rather see him unify the 185 MW belt. Oh and because I love watching it, here is Andre Arlovski receiving a pimp slap from Werdum: |
