TildeGuy~! Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Ever wonder why GSP is content with fighting an average of two times per year? Well as he tells it it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Dead Mike Posted November 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 11, 2011 Yeah, it's certainly more than I thought but I'm assuming that includes all his endorsements for the fight too? Slightly off topic but I was surprised how much the UFC is still a fringe-sport & unaccepted by the mainstream on my recent trip to the USA. I really struggled to find a bar in Manhatten that was showing UFC 136 - Edgar/Maynard 3. Even Mr Woodyatt on here kindly enquired at some well known sparts bars but despite them being listed as showing UFC on various websites etc. they weren't showing the fights.

Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted November 11, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted November 11, 2011 Yeah GSP deserves the big money. He brings in the big crowds and whenever he headlines a PPV it usually does good numbers. Him and Brock are probably the 2 biggest draws the UFC have, it's only right they make big money. Â what the hell happened to Jerome? he looks like he's ill. Â Yeah he's he's had some pretty nasty injuries the last few years and it's taken a toll on him. Still, he's still dangerous and he's had some decent wins over guys like Spong and Leko the last year or so. I'm glad to see Wanderlei training with some elite strikers like him and Anderson, it's gotta be a good thing heading into a fight with Cung Le. Still got a bad feeling about it but at least he's doing the right things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may be now right enough, since Lesnar lost, but surely not in the past? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
METAL ON METAL Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Yeah, theres no way GSP is a bigger draw than Lesnar. Of all four shows that Lesnar has main evented so far, all four of them have been well over 1million buys each - GSP's hasn't drew 1 million buys in main eventing any show yet, his highest so far has been 920,000 (UFC 94: GSP vs. BJ 2). Â Dana might have meant he is a bigger draw as a whole (as in buys throughout his entire career) but Lesnar is by far the biggest draw in UFC history - thats a fact.

David Posted November 11, 2011 Author Share Posted November 11, 2011 It'll be interesting to see how Lesnar draws if he loses to Overeem (that's if he continues fighting at all actually). I reckon his star power will start to diminish if he loses again via stoppage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Galt Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 I'm glad St-Pierre is getting that kind of money. He's a great fighter and a great guy; not to mention that it's good to finally see definite proof that the UFC takes care of its guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
