Sickening not even 1 million for a Pay Per View.
Its's not hard to figure out the win bonus either-when 2 fighters fight which ever one wins gets the bonus & it would total the same either way. Even if you believe one fighter is better the other guy,he has to get in there with him & if his odds are so bad he needs payed less then they shouldn't be fighting....
I want to see a cage match with 5 top fighters against 5 top suits the winning team sets the pay scale
