UFC's Matt Schnell: 'I don’t want a fighters union, I’ll sit down at the table and negotiate for myself'

Francis playing the victim or how his team has portrayed him as such is the issue. The UFC offered him a deal worth 7 to 10 million per fight. He turned it down because he didn’t like the terms of no boxing.

The ufc pays for injuries related in the same way as the WWE. Again, they stole their actual business model.

Becky doesnt have a more stable job as the probability based on how many performances she does a year leads to a higher chance of injury.

Wwe provides rehab because most of the guys die early to drugs,booze and roids. Vince was already sued for issues related to this back in the 90s.

If you like pro wrestling so much then why don’t you marry it and quit being a faggot.

It’s a completely different “sport” and a completely different industry.

Dana stole their business model and applied it to mma. Sport, sport entertainment isnt not as relevant as to the business operations and manner in which they run.

The company is worth billions stop it guy lol. Do you work for the UFC?

How do you think the UFC got so big my guy? From the fans, why would someone pay for the advertisement and broadcasting rights if people weren’t going to watch lol? That makes no sense at all.

Guess how people make money? From other people spending their money. I don’t care if you’re a pimp, drug dealer, a car salesman or Dana White. They need people in order to make money.

How did the Waltons become greedy billionaires and the same with Bezos? Because they paid unlivable wages. But finally they are slowly starting to pay more because of pressure.

That’s a shit argument… hey you don’t like that we are screwing you? Go somewhere else then. You’re probably the type that does more then you’re paid to do at work but you just shut up and let them bend you over and take you raw.

The UFC got big because of their stars and they had the right people around them to help showcase their stars.

Understood, but it wasn’t as much Dana as it was the original owners of the UFC. BLAF and the Fertittas just did it better.

There are enough mma leagues now for fighters to test free agency and see their worth.

He’s the one that brought it up butt head. You keep using queers through out your arguments today. Sounds like you have some closet aggression you are hiding lol. It’s okay to be gay bro.

If the UFC platform ceased to exist in 2003ish then North American mma wouldve died.

The owners of the UFC put their money up, took the risk, almost went bankrupt and then got the greatest return probably ever on an investment.

That said I wish the fighters got a guaranteed payment than win/show but I know many that negotiated not to do that. Also, pre approved sponsors on fight week would be good.

UFC doesn’t do shit for their fighters lol. I’ve been around these guys. Koscheck wasn’t getting surgery taken care of by the UFC.

The UFC is worth billions, not the fighters. Do you understand how ownership works?

I don’t have to work for the UFC to call people like you cucks and faggots.

How do you think Bellator and ONE haven’t gotten anywhere near as big as the UFC? Because they do it better.

People watch because they offer the best production and put together the best fights. If it were so easy, then everyone would do it. But you see PFL and Bellator and everyone else struggle to even build an audience and create real fanfare or a profit.

And people (read: the fighters) need the UFC to get an opportunity at getting their own piece of that money. I guess you could say it’s a two way street? Only difference is there are literally tens of thousands of pro fighters and only one UFC. Suffice to say it seems the UFC has the upper hand.

There it is, stop being gay. You aren’t entitled to other people’s money. They pay you an agreed upon wage and you work. This isn’t the labor wars, if you don’t like a salary then kick rocks and work somewhere else.

I employ myself, you little faggot. You should consider doing that instead of being a cucked beta bitch.

The fighters got big because of the UFC and the UFC got big because of the fighters. It goes both ways and it’d help if you looked at it that way (honestly) instead of they gay faggoty way that you do.

They paid for Dominick Cruzs surgeries and the initial Sylvia surgery thay occured in his Mir fight. I also know of fighter who got his surgeries paid for and he wasnt a champion.

Out of how many….? Where as the WWE takes care of everyone

That wasn’t the case when he was fighting. They changed this previous to selling the company.

Proof either way outside of Koscheck? I gave 3 examples countering.

How did the UFC get all that money?

How do you make your money… Besides the gay porn you do lol?

Stop quoting every two sentences dork.

Yea all the AKA guys that would come to the gym

The UFC pays for all the fighter’s injuries and surgeries if they happen during fight camp or during the fight. They should probably pay for any surgery or medical cost if it happens to them while under contract and during any sort of training, but that’s something that can be negotiated between the fighter or the promotion. It’s gays like BarryBonds that seems to think the only way you could negotiate something like that is thru a union. These fighters should have their own health insurance that they pay for themselves if we’re being honest.
