a few questions....

[Franchise22]

will we see workers career earnings? it would be nice to see a fighters W/L record, Championships held, and career earnings :)

might be a dumb questions, but will fighters have overness/prestige? this would impact advertised main events ect

as far as contracts (this goes with first question), will it be a straight fee per fight or a $ amount for the fight and the a $ amount for the win?

thanks in advance :)

To piggy back off that, can fighters earn a percentage of the PPV revenue like we see in countless boxing contracts?

Although I haven't heard this really happening in MMA yet, it think it is the obvious evolution to where the sport will be going in regards to contract signings and yet another interesting option to include in the game if possible.

I'm not too sure about the PPV deals that the fighters have, but I did notice something insane on www.MMAWeekly.com. They post the salaries of the fighters after every major UFC event. I guess the Nevada State Athletic Commission makes it public record. I was amazed to see the drastic difference in salaries. You'll see them below, as I have attached them. Look at the difference between Lidell and Jardine, or even Rua and Griffin. I know Adam had mentioned something about fighters could try and match salary of the fighter they around going against. Just throwing this out there, not sure if it will be better the way it is realistically or with the fighters trying to match the deals. However, it's probably such a drastic difference due to Jardine's previous contract signing when his name wasn't so big. Just a thought.

Well it's not a secret that the big names in UFC get lots of money even if they lose. Chuck's salary will definately go down in the future because he isn't a top guy anymore.

Still the most marketable guy in the UFC, he's the guy that will still make them big $ until he retires.

Those numbers really aren't worth much, the UFC pays all kinds of bonuses to fighters. Jardine for example has stated that he made over $100,000, and some extra from his sponsors. Those are just the numbers UFC releases to the athletic commissions, which is just the base pay of the fighters.

will we see workers career earnings?



I would like to see that also. However it was not mentioned anywhere and probably be not in.
