"Conor regularly spars with the top level amateur boxers of the country, and also with a bunch of pros (World title contenders)" You are saying he spars with them, I'm saying Aldo spars with top strikers himself.
He earned SEVEN MILLION in his last fight. In this fight he's done 10+. The man is literally the face of MMA at the moment. And how can you compare the pay in a sport with a nigh-on TWO HUNDRED YEAR history to one with a little over TWENTY years? F*cking brain-dead halfwit. Bet you Canelo or Cotto didn't earn $10mill in their last fight each. Neither did Tyson F. Nor Wlad.
STOP lying. Jesus mma fans are the DUMBEST phuckers on the planet. UFC 194 salaries (per MMAJunkie) Conor McGregor: $500,000 (no win bonus) def. Jose Aldo: $400,000 http://www.mmaoddsbreaker.com/news/moe121515/
Actually you did. 5-10 dollars per PPV? You got a source? Because even Brock Lesnar was rumored to get 1-2 dollars per PPV. Go ahead post your source to prove me wrong.
http://www.mmaoddsbreaker.com/news/moe121515/ that is my source BTW. Not some Redneck backwoods bragging about his money. Actual cold hard evidence.
Reportedly between $3 and $5 actually. But still a lot more than maybe 99% of boxers. FACT! http://www.forbes.com/sites/mattconnolly/2015/12/13/ufc-194-conor-mcgregor-breaks-ronda-rouseys-earnings-per-second-record-with-quick-ko-win/
