    As was the biased commentary that stated that Arlovski won the first round when Nelson clearly controlled the round.
     
  3. I agree.

    The whole thing is a joke.

    There was a reason for Kimbo to be so happy after his loss. He landed on a temporary goldmine.

    500,000 dollars for 14 seconds, that has to be a MMA record. Kimbo was exposed big time, he won't be getting paid that again any time soon.

    I had some one tell me they couldn't beilve Kimbo lost. They didn't think anyone could beat him. Kimbo was a media creation- nothing more.

    AA must be the biggest wage earner in MMA; he was one the top UFC earners even when he was beating the likes of Marcio Cruz and Jake O'brien on undercards.

    Carano got screwed, and sadly, it wasn't by me.

    Kimbo earning half a million dollars to get knocked silly by half a punch from a journeyman LHW...:patsch

    Can we be sure that Vince McMahon isn't controlling Elite xc. He is the master of media creations.

    I can't believe how little they are paying Carano. She seems like Elite XC's biggest star.

    Kimbo is evidently much smarter that most MMA fighters including fans. He went from nothing to making half a mil. Thats not exposed thats business sense!!!:yep

    I can understand Arlovski getting paid like that. Give that woman more money. Kimbo should've got paid what she did but really that isn't bad pay. Although she should get more after tonight.

    Arlovski is top fighter, Kimbo is a big draw and brings in money, Gina gets paid for American Gladiators.

    They are all getting paid just fine and they all deserve it.
