Where are all the guys who bitch about fighter pay? Phone Post 3.0

Agreed. Of they was gonna give out 6 bonuses, this was the card to do it. Glad everyone got paid. Hate when it is close and someone misses out. These were all definitely deserved. Phone Post

And Dana also said during the presser that Siler was going to get paid as well.

Very cool, they all earned it.

Thacommish - How was ufc able to inflate the OTN bonuses so much? dana made it very clear the only way fighter pay can go up is if he takes money out of somewhere else... you mean to tell me he can pay fighters more without taking money out of other things?!

Dana made it clear he lost a bunch of money in this event.


he was even whining about it pre-fight.

Was an effort to help FOX since FOX has helped them in the past.

Sweet, deserved all around. Last nights card was awesome and a great way to kick off FS1. My mom even watched the whole card. She texted me when Browne KO'd Overeem Phone Post 3.0

If they lost a bunch of money on the event, then my question still stands, where did all this excess wealth come from to justify all the extra OTN, when he clearly said fighter pay cant go up without taking money out of somewhere else. I think the numbers are not adding up.

From the PPVs of course. The money to pay lawmakers around the world and lobby lawyers from New York comes from that too.

Some events like this may take a loss but are the exception.Still, they have to pay their fighters handsomely regardless or next time around they will refuse to all fight in the same night.


Dan Henderson was still complaining las year about fighting in UFC 100 because the headlines + GSP took all the PPV points away.

Lol at 50k being a huge deal. That's the bonus incentive? Lmfao Phone Post 3.0

In my opinion I don't think there's anyway the UFC is losing money, they are just giving more back to the fighters who bring it, I love it. Thanks Dana! Phone Post

Lame.  Who cares if they gave away one or two extra bonuses?  

Fighter pay is still atrocious.
