Yes they have to accept it or go somewhere else, and that is how SF is ripping them off, its a disgrace. Dont try to make it something else, SF knows these guys want to fight and they are not paying them anything for it. And people think SF is major leagues? They are just pirates ripping their welfare out of the fighters back.

So based on your math then the UFC is really a disgrace, right? I mean, they have 10x the money that SF has, and yet their payscale doesnt reflect that. Can you explain that?

How you know they have 10x more money? They put money on ingreasing amounts to get mma licenced everywhere including NY, they also pay fight of the night bonuses and they put money on marketing which seems to be more than SF puts on their production. UFC is growing mma everywhere and they are still paying better money than SF, and you try to make it sound that the UFC is the bad choice here?
UFC brings even their prelim fighters some exposure by making their fights shown on Facebook and elsewhere, SF never shows those prelims anywhere, so the fighters dont get so much sponsor money.
I agree UFC could pay more, but as long as the "so called number 2" -organisation pays their fighters 3k and champions 15k, I wouldnt be calling out UFC to act. :roll:

In conclusion, Strikeforce has no money to pay their fighters because MMA fans do not own ShoTime unless they love the late night antics.

So Strikeforce pays Hendo a BASE salary of $250,000.00 to challenge for a title
and
The UFC pays LW Champion Frankie Edgar a BASE salary of $51,000.00 to defend his belt for a second time.
Looks like Hendo made a wise decision when he left for greener pastures.
Dana White is richest though!

Do you understand the concept of business? If not, then maybe i shouldn't waste my time trying to explain it to you. :roll:
EDIT: considering that Zuffa is a BILLION dollar company, i would venture to say that they are worth well over 10x what Strikeforce is. You could add up all of SF's assets and they aren't worth 100 mil.

Yes Zuffa is Billion dollar company and SF is leaps and bounds behind but they get tens of millions from Showtime alone, let alone other things they might have, I have no idea how to calculate how much they have/make or whatever. However there is a difference, UFC pays more to their fighters, I assume that the fighters do same thing for living in both organisations. And Major part of Zuffa money goes to advertising and making the sport grow, unlike from SF so the difference isnt tenfold, since SF doesnt use money to make the sport bigger.
Like I said earlier, UFC could also pay more, but SF is the one who really has to work things up. They are a disgrace.

don't do it!!!! you are falling for the same BS I fell for numerous times with Fjordoz/ Rami. You have been here long enough to know that he will always find a way to bash SF and get under your skin and no matter what is said he will never agree with anything not pertaining to facts!

Wow. You really have been indoctrinated. SF is working on things like getting MMA legalized in NY. They just did a big exhibit at the Arnold and another one in NY for the Tournament.
http://strikeforce.com/media/videos/2011/03/strikeforce-booth-at-the-arnold-expo/
What they aren't doing is pushing to have "Ultimate Fighting" legalized rather than MMA so that only one company can legally run events like up in Quebec where you can only use an Octagonal cage which is a UFC trademark.

Because Dana and Lorenzo haven't been to The Arnold before, or haven't attempted to get MMA legalized in NY?
Oh wait.... :roll:

No-one is saying they haven't, what he's saying is that SF are also trying to get MMA made legal in NY.

Everytime a "fighter salaries" thread gets made there should be audio from Goldie saying "Annnnnnd here we goooo!!"
Same bickering back and forth about the same thing practically every month. If not here then definitely on the main page when they post it.

people who think the Fertidas and Dana are doing MMA and MMA fans this huge favor for growing MMA and trying to get it into NY are delusional.
why don't you send thank'you letters off to Exxon every time the open a new service station so they can goudge you for gasoline ffs.
they arent doing it for "you". they're expanding the area in which they can sell their product in order to get stinking rich.
funny how people see it as this huge service to the sport lol
hendo got 250k for challenging and Frankie got 51k for defending a second time.
sf is doing just fine.

So exactly how is this expo helping? They are trying to improve their own marketability in Arnold's expo, how are they affecting NY mma? I dont see it now?
But just for entertaining thought, how much money do you think SF spent in NY to try and legalize mma there? We already know that UFC gives approx the same amount in bonuses what SF does in full salaries. So bring the facts how much did SF spent into legalizing.

Because you have a huge crowd that has gathered there for a wide range of sports and fitness demonstrations. Lots of them will know next to nothing about MMA. At the show they are getting to meet stars and are being given demonstrations on how various technics etc work. BJJ and wrestling are a lot more interesting if you understand some thing about them. If you don't know any thing about BJJ an arm bar is just some one holding your hand.

Just because they don't drag a film crew every where they go doesn't mean they aren't doing any thing.

How much are they spending? I have no idea but I will say the only real reason to legalize MMA in NY is to be able to run shows in MSG. But I am willing to bet that the UFC will have exclusive rights to do shows there once it is legalised so there really isn't any up side for SF to do it. They can run shows in Jersey.

I don't know. SF doesn't do a press release every time they fart looking for glory.

This. Really why should I give a flying fark if it is legalised any where else. It just means fewer shows for the places where it is legal.

That huge crowd in Arnold expo isnt making any decisions to legalize it, your just grasping straws here. SF was just promoting their product there. And Frank talking to senator isnt so much than spending a dime on this.

I didn't say setting up at the Arnold was for legalizing. MMA is already legal in Ohio. That was helping to grow the sport as well as their product. Getting face time with the politicians and getting a bill sponsored is more important to getting MMA legalized than pretty well any thing else you can do. And I am done with this thread. You obviously have no interest in learning any thing.

Im not here to learn, Im here giving my insight how SF is a disgrace by ripping the fighters, and the truth can be found in the OP text.. And its funny how people try to compare Hendersson (the biggest or second biggest non champion in UFC in salarywise, against the lowest paid champion in UFC) What if I compare Lesnar, non champion to Coenen.. No comparison either.
