Originally posted by NearHypnos View PostKhabib took the third off and seemed to want to stand to prove a point. Conor was done by the second it looked like and Khabib wanted to punish him for 5 rounds (according to Khabib). Khabib came in with a different mindset in the 4th and continued the mauling.
Thats kind of where I’m coming from. The best Conor was able to do was essentially what he was allowed and it was largely ineffective. Khabib just pawed at him and leaned on him and wore him out further.
Only guy with the will and tank is going to be Ferguson. That guy is an animal as well
And randomly I think Kevin Lee could be the guy who beats Khabib too. Kevin Lee just keeps getting better & I don't think we've seen the best of him yet. He took a L to Ferg, but he gave him hell for a lil while with a f#cking staph infection ffs. Who's even crazy enough to fight with staph? No many dudes thats for sure.

And fair play on Tibau, but legit no one has won a f#cking round to Khabib thus far except Conor. Not saying its not a sh^tty lil moral victory, but its a moral victory of sorts all the same.

MMA dudes get a cut of PPV sales at different levels as they get more buys. At 2M buys I'd guess Conor is taking home $20M-$25M. I heard MMA people suggesting mfers getting 1M+ numbers get in the $10M+ range. So my guess is at least double that number insures your bank account is going up by $20M. Might hit $25M, $30M with the improved cut with better cut % tiers doe too.

Originally posted by LetOutTheCage View PostI think the reported 3 million might be before the PPV money, it's probably the money the UFC guaranteed him. Apparently their still holding Khabib's money (reportedly 2 million)

Originally posted by Eff Pandas View PostIm not in the UFC's accounting books, but from what I understand in MMA the leagues do all the work with building up the fighters, building the events, covering various expenses of fighters, building the names & all sorts of up front costs thus get all that ***y back end money.
Its been said that its basically the exact opposite of boxing for this reason where 80% of the money goes to the boxers & 20% to everyone else & in MMA 20% goes to the fighters & 80% goes to everyone else, including the UFC. Don't know if its that good in boxing or that bad in MMA, but I'd bet that trend is true & the numbers might not be THAT far off.
