Does the 80,000 include his KO of the night bonus?

Because Oliveira’s doesn’t include his sub of the night.

If Gomi made 120,000 in this fight, he better get his ass stateside for a proper camp.

Okami must have the worst contract of any 9-2 fighter in the UFC.

Jones' Contract

has one fight left on it. It will be interesting to see what his next one will be for.

There are only two fighters in the world who might be able to defeat Jon Jones: Ken and Ryu.

If he and his management are smart, he will negotiate before his next fight just in case he loses and then he will command less money

He’s been a headliner twice and is the youngest, least known fighter ever interviewed on Sportscenter. It’ll be interesting to see what that does for him, although he’s never been on the main card of a PPV (I think). Did the O’Brien fight make the air? I can’t remember.

I throw raps that attack like the Japs on Pearl Harbor/MC's be out like bank robbers/Fleeing the scene, to be a sole survivor/DJ the getaway driver/Tried to dip but he dive, I socialize on vocal vibes/On tracks stabbed up with razor sharp knives

The Bonnar fight was on the main card of UFC 94

"Ten more seconds is all I ever ask. That's the good thing I learned about being KO'd twice. You don't see it coming -it's like death- you don't plan for it so don't wait for it. So many people are afraid of getting Ko'd that their hands stay home, but not me. I got to go out there and shoot the lights out and fall down" Jens Pulver

Damn, Gomi is bankin’. Better work that man to a title shot quick so he can actually earn it. And someone give Okami a raise.

Massenzio and Oliveira

must be feeling extra special with that bonus money.

by phillyhoosfan on Aug 5, 2010 5:03 PM EDT reply actions  

Sad...

Volkmann only get’s 10k a fight.

I'm looking for the chicken and the rice. Please for you give me the chicken then you come with the rice or then you give me the rice and the chicken, I don't care.
