Chael Sonnen recently addressed the situation where the UFC fighters are facing the problem of low payscale. Compared to the UFC fighters, the boxers like The Paul Brothers are earning staggering amounts.
Sonnen posted a video in which he talked about the issue with both Francis Ngannou and Paulo Costa comparing their salaries with YouTubers turned pro boxers. Uncle Chael suggested going with the a different outlook.
Chael Sonnen opens up on Jon Jones
He recalled the time when he had bumped into Jones in the hotel hallway after they shared the same flight. Conor McGregor UFC 264 ‘Murder Threat’ Leaks?
Chael revealed how much he was paid to fight Stipe and talked about why Jones was paid 20 grand, while he was paid half a million.
Here is what he had to say:
“Had Francis Ngannou come out and said, ‘You know what, I was paid $500,000 to fight Stipe. ‘Johnny’ over here was the third fight of the night. He weighed in four minutes before me. We actually were on the airplane together, and I ran into him in the hotel hallway, he’s three doors down. We have literally done the exact same thing, and Johnny only got 20 grand. Why am I being paid half a million when he’s getting 20 grand? You owe me 20 grand.’”
It has been noted in the financial documents that the UFC pays their fighters around 20% or less of their revenue. Dana White’s themselves aim to maintain it at around 17% which has been for the past few years.
