Well that’s good news.
I didn’t ever believe there would be $1B+ resolution to the lawsuit.
And I was surprised by how many people actually wanted to see the UFC go under because of this. Clearly the UFC was in the wrong. But either you want the biggest org in the sport around. Or you want to settle for minor league orgs.
I don’t see how a real fan of mma would have wanted the UFC to go under. Every other mma org does the same things with their contracts, etc. why is it always the UFC that gets shit on?
The UFC wouldn't have gone under anyway. The fighters deserved more money. The UFC needs to pay their fighters more. At least more than 13%. Maybe 25% to start? Up the bonuses to $100K? They used to be $75K. I understand entry level contracts being low, but up those to 25K/25K? And yes, I did the $280K math on front page. Again, the UFC got off easy.
