The UFC pays off fighters at the top to be quiet. It’s why when the push for a fighters union in 2019 dropped off out of nowhere. Jon Jones, Jorge, Nate, and several others got paid behind the scenes to stop talking. Cowboy Cerrone talked one time about receiving that pay to be quiet when fighters pushed for a union around 2012.

Randy has done a lot of work for the sport and fighters behind the scenes. He is very right on the percentages being wildly off from where they should be. The UFC only pays out fighters 15% of the profits in a year, and thats IF Conor fights that year, if not the percentage drops lower based on just him.

Congratulations to Randy Couture, this is the type of fighter people need. A sport full of people from poverty which involves pride and survival, can easily be exploited by people on the side lines who just have a business angle. Congrats to the ufc for making ufc stock possible for fighters. But when it comes to entry level contracts and salaries, $12,000 is a slap in the face. No other industry would distribute pay like that. A medical bill is like $50,000 or more, so how does that make sense in a work environment that is 24/7?

Right now is a very good time to organize for these fighters. The current trio of African champions could lead this charge. Izzy, Kamaru and Francis are already friends to a degree. These three could deliver a massive blow to the UFC if the three of them come together to rally the rest of the fighters behind their United front. Could the UFC just release them? I guess so. But, counter to that, these three are arguably PFP, at least top five, all time in their divisions. I think there is enough support and pressure that could lead them to the bargaining table

Yes, I feel bad for Cyril a bit because he was being used as a pawn in this situation by the UFC and Fernand Lopez against Francis Ngannou. Everything was against Francis, especially how the MMA media was promoting this fight like it was brawns against brain, like Francis Ngannou is a one trick pony, etc. I couldn't stand how DC and Rogan were hyping Cyril up after UFC 265, like Ngannou was nothing more than the cameroonian Derrick Lewis (which I always said was bs).

Great representative for the sport. He's thinking of the well-being of all fighters -- NOT just the superstars, who do just fine for themselves. We need more people speaking out for workers' rights in this country. The industry is trying to ignore & marginalize him so that his message doesn't get heard. Pretty typical in a system where workers are just exploited like commodities instead of given respect like human beings.

I don't know, like Randy said, fighters are so selfish they refuse to see the big picture. Furthermore, one problem is management. Many fighters' managers have a very cozy relationship with the ufc, so they actually work against their clients' interests, chief among them being Ali Abdelazziz.

It is so hard for fighters to win a case because the UFC is based in Nevada and the Fertitta family is probably the most powerful family in the state, even if they don’t own the UFC anymore Dana’s ties to them make it very hard any fighter to have success changing things in Nevada. Even Big John and Josh Thompson said the UFC will never lose a court case in Las Vegas.
