Ufc salaries are a joke

[Quasar44]

You are great and you make it to the Ufc

You reached the highest level

And your first fight you get 10 grand lol

That won’t even pay for your coaches and gym
Fees and medical expenses

Are looking for another line of work again?

If I wanted to watch d-bags covered in tattoos and axe body spray punch each other, I could see that for free in any bar in the country.

In order to get paid for playing a "sport", people actually have to pay to watch that sport.

Why do you think women athletes get paid so little?

Ufc has mega following and the fighters are very skilled .
Yes they maybe “street trash “ but they are highly skilled
The fighters only get 15 percent of revenues

How does that percentage compare to the average whore on the street? I guess they both have to get beat up every once in a while.

The promoters provide a very important role in actually raising the money for UFC fighting.

Without their efforts, the UFC fighters would just be fighting it out in barrooms for nothing, the promoters found a way to get money from the spectators.

And how many people get paid 6 figures for their first job? The payouts are for those that have worked their way up and earned the paycheck.

Let me ask, what should they earn?

They entry per fight should be at least 50 grand ..not 10

Only the stars are making a few million

Even the avg guys only get 100-200,000 per fight

The big 4 share revenues 50 percent
The Ufc is only 15

Maybe I'm wrong, but the money that you're stating is what is paid to the fight is just a portion of what they get from the UFC Apparel sponsor.

A Breakdown of How UFC Fighters Get Paid

When it comes to pay, UFC fighters have a different experience than other athletes. Here's a breakdown of the ways UFC fighters gets money in the bank.

There seems to be a lot more to the how and by whom fighters get paid than just a blanket statement that they only get $4000.00 a fight.

Also, if they don't like what hey are making, get better, win more, become a marketable name. Or find another job.
