Comments on: Dana’s Putting the “B*tch Slap” on Fighters http://www.cagetoday.com/danas-putting-the-btch-slap-on-fighters/ Fri, 19 Mar 2010 14:01:59 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Jude http://www.cagetoday.com/danas-putting-the-btch-slap-on-fighters/comment-page-1/#comment-2201 Jude Thu, 02 Aug 2007 01:54:41 +0000 http://www.cagetoday.com/danas-putting-the-btch-slap-on-fighters/#comment-2201 Thanks for the info! That sounds a little better now, all I had to go on was the "payouts" that they tell us about. I just want to see these guys get what they should be getting. Thanks for the info!

A lot of the maincard fighters are offered a cut of the PPV profit percentage, so you would have to know that. There is a big bonus to the knockout of the night and the submission of the night, not sure what the exact amount of that is, I'll ask around. Then I know that the smaller fighters are given double pay for a win...like 5 grand will be 10 grand if you win. There are probably a lot of other under the table payments that I dont know about.

He marketed MMA to the mainstream but he didn't make MMA, there were hardworking fighters long before he and the Fertittas bought out the UFC. So good for Dana and I'm glad he got recognition to the sport, but that doesn't mean that he isn't a prick and it doesn't mean that he doesn't nickle and dime a lot of fighters. And they have no intention of bringing back Pride, so thanks for that too Dana. And Don King did wonders for boxing, Vince McMahon did wonders for Wrestling, and they are all jerk offs.

But the fighters should be "GRATEFUL" for even being there, give me a break! Where would Dana be WITHOUT the fighters & the FANS, I might add. Dana White is all about the "all mighty dollar" & he couldn't care less about the fighters. Do you really think all the sudden all these fighters started doing "roids"? How long has it really been going on? Do you think Dana White didn't have a clue? I try not to get into name calling with other members on this site, but maybe you're the MORON here with your Dana White worship. Dana has deep pockets, that's it, & in MY opinion, HE'S A PRICK! I asked a few questions earlier, anyone know how these guys are paid? Well, I agree with one point you made,juicing is NOT acceptable.

He says he pays fighters so well but won't release what they get paid, just those bare bone figures that are rediculous. He needs to suspend fighters along with docking their pay.

I wish someone would bitchslap him. It's a tough sport to make a living at & Dana & his group don't make it any easier. These guys are so desperate to fight & make a buck that they try to fight hurt. When fighters sign on with the UFC are they paid so much per fight or are they paid so much per contract? I don't really understand. When we see the payouts per fighter, some of these guys are really getting the shaft. Is this what these guys think they are worth or what Dana is willing to pay them? At any rate Dana is a prick.

From the paper we look at, it sure isn't "good money". Dana can be cool I guess, but he also reminds me of those skinny punks in high school that could talk a good game, get some muscle to stand behind them and then walk around like they own the world. his cocky attitude drives me nuts.
