    Bet your sweet ass.

    I have the unpopular view that I don't give a **** what these guys get paid, as long as I see top v top, best v best. What they earn is of no consequence to me.

    I was a doorman for 8 years, got 10 quid ($15-20) an hour and was fighting 3-4 times a weekend. So as you can imagine I don't have much sympathy for fighters getting a minimum of 18k a fight.

    Didn't Mosley get payed the same as Margarito? Not that he needs the money he owns 5% of Golden Boy.

    The big names are starting to realize how much money they're making the UFC and how little the UFC is making them in return. I think eventually someone will come up with something a lot better for the fighters and the UFC will be cut out.
