Nate Diaz: UFC fighter pay critics “Don’t have the idea of what it’s”
Throughout a current look on the ALL THE SMOKE podcast, Diaz shared why he believes criticism of how the UFC pays its fighters is overblown.
“I don’t suppose folks have the idea of what cash is and the way a lot,” Diaz mentioned. “I feel Dana White will get a f***ing dangerous rap. I’m not giving him an excellent one, however bro, he’s paying much more folks much more cash than f***ing folks suppose. I simply don’t suppose folks know what’s what…
“I would like more cash, too. Give these motherf***ers some more cash, give me more cash too. However he’s paying lots of people some huge cash, greater than the boxing [fighters]. So far as fight sports activities say, boxing pays the highest-paid fighters much more than the UFC has. However the UFC, I feel pays much more folks some huge cash. He pays the entire roster a bunch of f***ing s***. Individuals once they make this s*** occur, although, they need to get their very own s***.”
Diaz concludes that whereas the UFC may pay its fighters more cash, its fighters may do extra to enhance their general value and worth.
White has defined that fighter pay gained’t considerably change so long as he’s the CEO of the promotion. Within the meantime, Diaz believes that the difficulty is much less extreme than most painting it to be.
