Fedor is not fighting for his legacy, best believe that

1.5 mil per ppv? More like one time they sold on 1.5 million pay per views

If Joe Torre was asked where does Roy Halladay rank among the best pitchers in baseball and Torre said that Halladay was a bum, not a top 10 pitcher in his own division, Hiroki Kuroda is better then Roy Halladay ect. The chances are that when Halladay was a free agent he would make it a point that when the Dodgers came offering, Halladay would tell them to fuck off.

It's not that he's just an asshole, he's been on record calling this guy that he's now trying to make a whole lot of money off a bum! Dana White isn't a business man.

No disrespect Amat but besides buying a dime what business deals have you closed in your teenage life?

Bad analogy and trust me that shiit you mentioned dosent matter.. The money, comp, glory and legacy are all in the UFC. Not in a fly by night organization like Strikeforce..

Very true JT Rock if all you people defending Fedor saying "Oh he said this about Fedor he shouldnt sign he isnt a business man" Keep in mind in that same article it says HE SIGNED BACK TITO ORTIZ! And we know what those guys have gone through for years and it was a hell of a lot more then Dana ever did to Fedor and yet Tito is back in the octagon, and why? Because Tito says he wants to fight the best, he says he could make a bunch of money in Strikeforce but that he wouldn't feel like he is fighting the best, he didn't wanna be a big fish in a small pond and I respect him for that. Fedor is just fine with being a big fish and a small pond and no one wants to bash him because they are Fedor followers, if ANY other fighter made a decision like that(like lets say Floyd Mayweather) everyone of you would be jumping on him saying he was avoiding fighting the best and was a fool to say no on the offer. But if Fedor does it its just fine because "Dana white is a jerk". Listen to yourselves people.

blah blah Don't bring up Tito Ortiz because Tito had no leverage with the UFC because he's not in demand by anyone else, and he certainly won't make more money fighting elsewhere. I'd prefer Fedor to be in the UFC BUT I can't blame the guy for not fighting for the UFC. Even if those aren't he didn't fight, I'm still glad. Fuck the UFC for not paying their fighters top dollar like ALL OTHER elite level star athletes including boxers. I know that's boring to some but it's true.

Do you think any other promotion could pay Fedor more then the UFC? UFC is the company paying top dollar so if its "fuck the UFC" for them then what would that say about any other company?

Um Majesty YES, any other organization could pay more then the UFC especially it's own. UFC routinely has 1 milion dollar payrolls to split up between over 20 fighters who fight on PAY PER VIEW, um yes plenty could pay more for Fedor like Affliction did.

Since when is UFC paying top dollar? Most of their really big contracts they had to eat when they bought Pride. And you said absolutely nothing that takes away from my point, that UFC pays their fighters like shit and not like any other pro athletic league or organization. These guys make a tiny bit more then the average Major League Lacrosse player by like 5 thousand.
