The fighters can form a union, promote themselves better, stop under cutting eachother, etc. Lots of ways to make more $.

    I think the ultimate question would be "how much do *you* make a year as UFC president?" I guarantee he wouldn't answer it. When he gave the Nelk boy 250k for his bday that was a slap in the face to the fighters. NFL/NBA players share 50% of the revenue while UFC fighters get 19-20%. ? And NBA/NFL each have 32 owners while UFC has *two* plus Dana as the face of the company. For 2020...
    UFC revenue/year apprx 1 billion
    NBA 8.3 billion
    NFL 11 billion
    So that leaves 200 million for apprx 700 fighters 4.2 billion for apprx 500 NBA players and 5.5 billion for apprx 2000 NFL players.
    So...
    Owners+Dana apprx 270 million/each
    UFC fighters apprx 285,000 each
    NBA owners apprx 131 million each
    NBA players apprx 8 million each
    NFL owners apprx 172 million each
    NFL players apprx 2.8 million each
    So Dana + Ferteeta make more than NBA/NFL owners while fighters make *significantly less* than NFL/NBA players do..like 10x less than NFL players and 30x less NBA players

    Connor mcgregor got paid 1 million for hit title fight with Nate diaz. It sold 200 million worth of ppv alone. He fought Floyd and got paid 150 mil. In comparison. Hulk hogan got paid one million in 86 for a paper view fight. Dana white is undeniably underpaying those fighters.
