Not one word about Alexei from the pro M1 crowd. Debts to be paid and big brother to the rescue - should be careful what tales you tell and what tatt's you get in Russia or you might be held accountable. Urka indeed.
Funny that Aleksander E has been invited by the president of Ingushetia and will be fighting against Magomedov in M-1 Challenge 33.
Not funny at all - exactly what I said. Alexei is going to have to work off those fines - if he cant maybe big brother can do the job. You need to read better.
Yeah for some reason I dont think anyone would say that to his face or say that to his friends' face. Some mobster wannabe wont wants to mess with the GOAT Fedor, some billionaires and some very high ranking scary mofo's like Putin. Who knows if he is or he isnt (although hes been distancing himself away from it). All we know is he did some crazy stuff and was sent to prison.
I don't like the guy but his motivation and drive to constantly produce the fights " the fans " want to see , has never wavered !!! What he depicts in his own mind of what them fights are may not suit everyones opinions , but the man is driven , driven to take this sport where PRIDE could not , its a clean structured sport now , the fighters are better , the standard is higher , and it keeps growing , and thats primarily down to him :deal
UFC fighters have been put on a muzzle for sexiest and racist remarks, DANA should be wearing that muzzle as well. The guy is a douche bag and an insult to the sport of MMA. He is the president of an MMA promotion and talks and acts like a spoilt 10 year old.
GSP states that a UFC title fight is worth $4-5 million for him. And that's against anyone, not against a top-5 p4p ATG. :good :hat
Thats not guaranteed money though is it? Fedor's guaranteed is already over $2 million, then you have to factor in the viewership, tickets, broadcast deals that Fedor gets a cut on, sponsorships (the Japanese, Russians, and Koreans love the quiet chubby Russian), likeness money and everything else in between. Id even hazard a guess and say that Fedor is still the highest paid MMA star around. And thats Fedor fighting anyone, title fight or no title fight.
Ethics were the main thing when it came to Fedor, naturally if done right would have resulted in more money and conditions. he always said that DANA and the UFC don't make offers and contract conditions that treat fighters with respect and dignity, the terms and conditions are oppressive to the fighter who knows better.
