    I got no prob with Cung either but he isn't fighting and he's holding up the other fighters careers. Does he even plan on fighting again?

    Bingo.

    Cung Le knows he has been very fortunate beating tomato cans and an old, past his prime fighter in Shamrock in a "super fight."

    Cung Le would get brutally exposed against a legit opponent.

    The hype for this guy is ridiculous.

    Cung def needs to fight, but it is up to strikeforce to get him to fight. It is not his fault (i guess he could take more innitiative if he wanted to fight) that strikeforce isn't riding his ass to fight a contender (shields or diaz).

    If MMA orgs didn't pay peanuts then perhaps this kind of thing wouldn't happen.

    A MMA organization got to make money before it can give money.

    After Zuffa brought the UFC it ran at a loss for years, it's only in the last few years it's been making profit. It didn't go under due to two billionaire owners.

    Now top MMA stars(UFC/maybe Dream/Affliction) make a small fortune, if your good enough to make it to the top you'll make the money. :good
