Interesting interview with GSP. He brings up what he made in the UFC. UFC pay still ain't great but I forgot how shitty it was. Dude fought Matt Hughes for the title and only got $9,000.

Yeah, that's wack.

 

But he was allowed to sell ad space on his banner and shorts back then, so he got a decent check from sponsors.

Yeah that's how so many fighters made money back to then. When Brendan shaub was on the tail end of his career this is a big talking point he made. He hated reebok because he lost so much money from ad revenue

Yeah I saw clips and people are saying that it should have been a unanimous decision. Most people that saw the fight had it either 6 rounds to 2 or 7 rounds to 1 for Silva.

I mean they lucky he even won... At Chavez srs event... In Mexico
