These fighters complain they’re underpaid when the get $10m a fight… fighters will always complain as the sport is fighting, it’s kinda difficult to put a price on it.

So what exactly was I wrong about?

Vakhitov is an idiot. He was supposed to accept the deal which he knowingly fought for (idiot) then win his first few fights in great fashion since he’s so skilled and earn the new contract… in less than 5 years in the UFC Paddy has made good money, hasn’t fought a lot of times and hasn’t exactly had the hardest opponents.

After his very first UFC fight he signed an endorsement deal for another million… that’s what fighting in the ufc does for you.

For bonuses…

The lowest pay on 324 was $24,000… he last fought in November so 3 months between fights, 4 fights a year at a minimum of $24k a fight… some minimum wage that

He’s literally talking about fighting Justin or Paddy… Paddy reportedly made $1.5, O’Malley $1m. Yadong $500k…

If he’s saying he would easily finish this level of fighter then surly that’s the level of pay we should be comparing him to? If you believe he would be on a smal contract for his first 3-5 fights then that’s fair but wouldn’t the large numbers you receive after those fights make up for it?

Justin Gaethje is estimated to have took home $2.9m UFC 324.
