He is so stupid UFC IS WORKING WITH OTHERS U IDOIT THEY GAVE PRIDE CHUCK FOR NOTHING AND PRIDE GAVE NOTHING……….ALSO Elite Xc and many others should thank UFC for not murdering Them by allowing them to keep there show up. Also this guy doesn’t know what he is talking about..Yes Fighters deserve more money andt hey will get more money….yes people need to speak out….but dude UFC is not “Branding” The Ufc name more than there fighters they have the young fighters alot of the fighters are getting old that is y they are leaving because they can’t fight these new upcoming fighters….also Tito is becoming washed up he really was scared to fight Lyoto…I still like tito but Dana is rite Tito stop talking you don’t understand Business or branding.

You guys need to quit with saying Randy was getting the shaft. He was paid his signing bonuses, and his base pay for simply showing up to the Gonzaga fight was 250,000 (the same as Brock got for the Mir fight) and then another 250,000 to win. Randy was also given around close to an extra million in PPV shares. That’s nearly 2 million for about 3 months of work if you consider that Randy has a 12 week training camp leading up to his fights. Fight 3 times a year and win and thats 6 million not including endorsments and sponsorships. I’d say that’s pretty good money.

Guys Like Lesnar were paid as much as Randy becuase thay were the fighters who were selling the PPVs. Do you think that UFC 81 would have done nearly as well without Brock? Hell no, the top paid fighters in the UFC are the guys that bring in the most viewers, and wether Brock deserved the money or not, people were paying to see Brock that night.

o by the way
the ufc made close to 30 million dollars gate sales for the matt serra vs st pierre fight.
that was a record for that venue, it outsold the rollingstones record.

also take into consideration merchandise and pay per view and i find it hard to believe that some of the pre lim fighters are getting payed 3000 dollars to fight.

Dana white isnt fit to be the promoter for the ufc, hes lost so many good fighters over the last year or 2, also some of the more recent fight cards have been so poorly put together its ridiculous.He was an agent for fighters when the business was going under, his 2 casino owning buddies ended up buying the company and appointed him promoter and he still hasnt learned how to operate the company. the way that he treated shamrock and phil baroni towards the ends of their time with the ufc was wrong, and hes gotten all of these uneducated fans now who just want to see chuck liddel punch people cos hes got a gut, and then they boo the ground aspects of fighting

as far as tito is concerned the people who keep posting hes an asshole or what not should think before they speak, tito has been argueing with dana for the same reasons as other stars in the ufc, and he started complaining about the amount he was being paid when he was the champion,
he still has the longest ufc title reign to date.
and also in a recent interview with vitor belfort, vitor was quoted as saying that tito is a great guy behind the scenes.

UFC just obtained Bud Light as their official sponsor… this is a start at things they need to do before fighters get paid a lot.

Also, UFC isn’t they money making machine it appears to be. There was an article posted a few months ago talking about the debt of the UFC and what the S&P 500 rated the company. Though it is gaining popularity, they are still really far away from becoming an organization like NFL,NBA, Boxing or anything else people have stated on here. They are projected to spend millions more than they intake over the next 5 years. If they porve that wrong, which they are trying to do they have the potential of being the next multi million $$$ industry. That’s when fighters will get paid like boxing.

Best thing Tito can do, is wipe the mat with Machida…
bury him….smile at Dana and…resign with the UFC. He was a great coach on TUF, and has a few yrs. left.
The question is, can he beat Machida?

most of you are worse than women…………………yea i said it………..including dana white. guy is punk who think will get rich of other fighters, that is why he can never cage the beast. here is your evidence they are all leaving. These men operate on honor and respect basis as much as ego.

Dana White is a fool…………………… He deserves everything that comes to him……….and so we shall see what happens
