Yes, besides Zuffa, Randy is sort of screwing his fans. I've never really understood his complaint that he didn't get enough respect from Zuffa. They put him in the UFC hall of fame, made him one of two coaches in TUF I (read Liddell's new book if you think this show doesn't help a fighter promote himself), A TV program that changed MAA forever by bringing in a ton of new fans through exposure. Other fight promotions have benefitted from TUF- a lot. After Randy came out of retirement, they gave him an immediate shot at the title, which he of course won. That didn't exactly hurt his career, and without the UFC none of this would have happened. This is to say nothing of the fact that his pay was higher than everybody's except Chuck. Not bad for being an aging fighter with many losses on his record, huh?
The UFC bought pride, where else could randy gone. Now there other fight company WEC is the heavyweight. Pride would of gave randy a chance if they were around and didn't get squashed by the corrupt athletic commissions. Or attorney generals in there pockets.
