Each event, there's a Fight of the Night and the cash drop that goes with it.
I say that at the end of the year, UFC should open an online poll of all the FONs and let us choose the "official" FOY. Both guys in the fight would win an additional $500,000.
They could even change the name of the FON to the "Million Dollar Fight".
Would be cool.
I think you mistakenly added an extra zero in that number.
chadp - I think you mistakenly added an extra zero in that number.That would probably be the reality, but in my head I can pretend they'd go all out for this.

Plus, they could have both the guys come into the octagon at an event to see a video package of the fight, receive an oversized check, and some kind of plaque or trophy.
Get a sponsor on there to defer part of the cost.

I'd be down for that. Really cool idea
It's a good idea. Maybe 100-250k would be more realistic in the boss' eyes.
500k each. Love it.
Good idea
Good idea, get a major org to sponsor it... They pay the prize money and in return get the publicity and advertising.

Good idea but it's easy when it's not you or your company's money. But I love the idea, could be life changing for sure for 2 guys
perfect...are you fronting the money?
I like the idea. Zuffa could do a half hour or hour show around the first of the year and award Sub of the year, KO of the year and fight of the year (maybe add UFC rookie of the year as well) while showing clips of the contenders. It would be a great way to showcase the best of the UFC from the prior year to potential new fans
I think 100K is more realistic. Gotta keep snow in the driveway
I know the money seems a little steep, but I like the ring of Million Dollar Fight.
I like the idea of doing the KO and Sub in the same format, along with the year end show. 100k for the sub and KO, 250k apiece for the FOY. Do it the weekend before the Superbowl, or the Friday night before the annual Super Saturday UFC card.
In to contribute ideas possibly.
