bisping making more then GSP is just flat out disgusting.
Oh and SE, bud and pal dont bug me.. Mind you, buddy is a pretty common canadian term, so...
The surest way to get a punch from me is to snap your fingers or whistle to get my attention. That, or interrupt me while Im having a conversation without using the words "excuse me".

On a serious note, if someone calls you bud to your face, you should punch them, lol. Anyone elses skin crawl when you hear the word bud? Or pal?

Well in all reality, Sonnen has only been a big name draw over the last couple years.. Takes a fight or so for the pay to catch up so I bet Sonnen has only had a couple / few really big UFC paydays so far.

Agree with everything there. Particularly regarding Bisping and interruptions

Sonnen's most recent payout was around 50k and I believe his prior was more like 35k. He's definitely making more money now, but not that much more (at least by declared payout).

This is just announced earnings...who knows what these guys actually make. You think Danny Downes has only made 8k? I think these numbers are neat but I don't believe them at all. In fact if I were making a lot of money I wouldn't want to tell people what I make.

HOSS-Bork, you should spend more time brushing up on your MMA history, and less time complementing guys on how young their penises taste.
Hardly an accurate list to be basing anything off this is just reported earnings. Some events they don't even disclose earnings because the commissions don;t require it.

You guys did read the written text that accompanied the list right?
Quote:
The figures do not represent a full assessment of each fighter's income.
Fighters bear significant costs including training expenses, a percentage to management, a percentage to the trainer, insurance, licenses, and taxes.
On the income side, sponsorship money can be a substantial portion, or even exceed the purse from the fight. Further, the UFC offers both locker room bonuses to a significant percentage of fighters, and most importantly, offers a percentage of PPV revenue to the top draws. The PPV rev share can run into the millions of dollars.
Lastly, many fighters earn income from teaching, from appearances, and in many cases from regular employment in the non fighting space.

What in my post made you think I didn't read it? I was commenting on how it is likely not real...regardless of the disclaimer
