    Few, very very few ever make millions in boxing.

    I think people are missing the bigger point. The UFC is bigger than boxing in the U.S. Despite this, the second highest paid boxer makes more in 1 fight than all the UFC fighters combined from their yearly PPV events. The perceived lack of pay in the UFC could cause a lot of defections and seriously undermine the organization.

    Well . . . my point is it's lame to even talk of how much fighters received. Most of the time it's the main hindrance why good fights never happens.

    We fans should never care . . . we always wanted good fights that's all. :D

    NEVER THE LESS . . . that's a very logical info you have posted.

    All it takes is for 1 guy to get a big contract and then it's over for the UFC. Then, the boxing big wigs could buyout the UFC, and combine the two. Like the NBA and ABA. Promotional companies would have a roster of MMA and Boxing fighters. De La Hoya or Arum could walk in to a UFC show, offer a guy a big contract to fight under their company and that would kill MMA forever.

    settle down MMA haters. . . even if the UFC does itself in that doesnt mean MMA will go away. There will simply be a second level org that steps up and puts on the big shows. . . king of the cage or strikeforce etc.

    dont say WE FANS, because I dont want any part of your moronic way of thinking. I care about fighters getting paid, because they are the ones putting the sh*t on the line. Jackass like Arum, and White in the UFC sit back and make major money and pay the TALENT as little as possible.

    If a guy is getting hit in the head for a living then he should at least be rewarded for it. Guy like you dont give two fuks about these guys, as long as you get your entertainment.
