Have to think the fight game likes to keep it that way by design.

 

[Chris]

They've started shouting out sponsors in post fight interviews to get some extra cash

 

[Chris]

I don't understand how they don't realize how bad of a look that is

 

[Canadian Dragon]

yeah

I'd bet on it, I don't remember who exactly said it but I've always heard they don't want to pay them too much bc they need to be "hungry" it was about McGregor being lazy tho

 

[Canadian Dragon]

and if people thought wrestler pay was bad and it was bullshit they had to pay for hotels and travel

dumb and poor make great soldiers in general. respectfully

 

[Canadian Dragon]

its been the combo for a long time though

 

[Chris]

I'd say the worst part about the wrestlers is lack of protections and guarantees but actual pay now is pretty good I'd even go as far as guessing down to Impact even tho their guys still do indies too

let me tell you about fight camps and having to pay to fly your whoe ass team out

yeah and at least even in the early 00s everyone still had a downside

 

[Canadian Dragon]

though it wasnt a lot of money for most ppl so u were enticed to work as many dates and esp PPVs as possible

 

[Canadian Dragon]

(yes I watched the Maven video)

 

[Canadian Dragon]

now im guessing its mostly all just downsides with min dates

 

[Canadian Dragon]

mb some ppv money but the network prob killed most of that
