UFC 115 Salaries

[Coach_K]

Hi Guys,
Wondering if anyone has seen the salaries from UFC 115? Franklin should be paid the most for taking fight on short notice and then getting the KO. I don't want to talk about the card anymore, just curious if he got paid (besides the KO bonus) as much as he should have.

Pat Barry should have to forfeit the remainder of his check after hospital bills are paid and they should just give it to Rich.

Is it just me or are the UFC cards just getting more and more disappointing? I order them as often as possible but after the last five or so, I have come away disappointed. This is the first time ever, EVER, this thought has popped in my head but unless MMA can put on good cards and offer fights for free once and awhile, their is a ceiling to MMA marketability. I consider myself a pretty big MMA fan but will not continue to spend money for below average cards!

(we all know they get way way more then what the commission releases)


Oh and UFC 115 was a very entertaining card, not sure how you could watch that card and said it sucked:shrug:

I can't speak for the fighters but I made about $70.

I am guessing this is not the salary you were looking for.

Not sure about the fighters but I have this nice looking avatar from the event. :toast:

 

[Coach_K]

Lay - that is a great Avatar so not sure why you are angry, haha.

I understand they make more than what is reported but it is a starting point and that is all I am looking for. Kick - this card was f-ing terrible! It made me want to leave the room and drink myself retarded. Pat Barry literally ruined my night which started out bad with Yves Lavigne being allowed in the arena. I am sure published salaries will be out soon, just curious if I missed them.
By the way, congrats to those of you who did profit from this card. I wish there was a betting site that did not have poker associated with it. Seems like the government crackdown is specifically on stopping online poker which is really making it difficult to deposit.

Pays to be Dana's friend. Liddell gets 500000 while most others get peanuts. :nono: How does Pat Barry have the number two fight on the card and only gets 11 grand? Franklin even wins and get the bonus and still is under a third of what Lidell gets.:shrug:

500 g`s for liddell?......even in his heyday,that`s ridiculous.....

no wonder the mofo continues to be fine with getting ktfo 2 or 3 times a year.....

and if chuck fights again,please lose the mohawk...you`re over 40 dude...:nooo:

 

[Glenn Quagmire]

Didn't Dana White say, like 2 years ago, that he didn't want Chuck to ever fight again because he was worried about his safety? Now he shells out $500K to get him in the ring?? :142smilie Good to see he's looking out for his fighters' well-being.

Weasy u think u would jump in there for 500,000? I think u have a point. Why retire getting a big chunk like that. Pat Barry 11 grand. Couldn't Dana take a hundred thousand of Chucks money and give these other guys a little more? I mean who the hell bought that card to see Chuck fight? Poor Peter Sobotta. 4 thousand and he lost. Boy i hope that cheap fuk Dana at least pays for these guys to fly home. If Not that 4 thousand before taxes isn't gonna go very far. I know Kick I know, a guy like that has huge endorsement deals he keeps on the down low :142smilie . Getting four thousand for a chance to get ur head knocked off ur shoulders.

I can't imagine what the other fighters think.
