More bullshit from the Reebok deal..
Could only make it 30 seconds. Bill Burr Wouldn't be shit if he never tore into that philly crowd, he's an annoying ginger loud mouth himself so it makes sense that he finds another annoying ginger loud mouth dis-likable. He's pissed Connor is selling more seats and doing a better job being an annoying ginger loud mouth then Bill has in his 20+ years of trying so fucking hard.
5:45 ouch...
Bro, what are you gonna have to say when my boy TJ outstrikes, outmoves, and out athletecizes Barrao in their second fight?Barrao take a belt back..
What do you mean? You don't think Mendes threw that fight, do you?It would explain the McGregor/Mendes fight.
No , I was just joking.What do you mean? You don't think Mendes threw that fight, do you?
Tj won't win that fight.Bro, what are you gonna have to say when my boy TJ outstrikes, outmoves, and out athletecizes Barrao in their second fight?
Are you part Brazilian? That's the only thing that can explain your unyielding support for Brazilian fighters!
Avatar bet: 30 daysTj won't win that fight.
IDK what's up with corporate.. I know Reebok isn't to blame, as much as the narrative that's been suggesting it is.. things like fighter compensation and union deals should be at the forefront of the movement. All fighters should be getting paid much more than they currently are, especially considering the profits the UFC has enjoyed the past few years..Im gonna boycott any ppv and canceled my fight pass it not even about the fighters getting payed anymore its about the fans there the ones getting the shaft with water down fights and having the fighters fight for us. There not even fighting for money anymore there doing it for the love of the fans and the sport.
Its just sick how some corporate asholes can shit on this great sport of ours and then laugh in our faces! On twitter and social media. Fucking dicks.
Im only gonna watch the free stuff.

Reebok is 50% to blame, they aren't dumb. They looked at the deal and did the math and found out the AVG. Revenue per fighter.IDK what's up with corporate..

Whether these comments by Wanderlei are legit or not, the sentiment is legit: fighters put their lives on the line, quite literally, and the bottom tier, mid tier guys aren't legitimately compensated for it. They create the hype and ensure fans buy the tickets, yet they don't enjoy any of the profits from the promotion.. It's nothing short of complete bullshit.
The only thing that will change this is a valid fighters union. Someone like Randy Couture or GSP would be a prime candidate for the leader. Demand fair fighter pay, stricter drug screening, unpartial judges and implement professional improvements for gloves, universal cage size, weight cutting, etc..
