Has noone EVER heard of working your way to the top?"

21,000 for babula who won 10 straight and is fighting in a fight for the belt?

I just watched The best Damn sports show period, some guy got 20,000 for hitting a wiffle ball with a bat.

Babula gets 210000 for being in the main event of a PPV that generated 26 million.

yeah.... I've heard of the top, and Dana and the fertitta's are the ones looking down below.
And thats not even his take home, he has to give away 30% for taxes.

How much do you think training, food and all that costs also... with that level of pay I definitely think you're hurting the fighters potential what with the training and stuff they can afford. Babalu can't be making a profit of over 3-5k after subtracting training and dieting costs.
