If they get paid a lot they will become prima donas. Start refusing fights, getting "injured" a lot more (GSP is already on that path)..retire early because you're already rich..not train as hard because you're already rich..etc. People who argue they should get more should only be the fighters themselves and their immidiate family. Now a fan of the sport should shut the fuck up and like it because we're getting the best fights possible. The "low pay" keeps these guys hungry to fight, which is the way it should be. If Floyd and Manny were making UFC money instead of over paid boxing money the fight would have happened by now TWICE.
It's too bad they get paid at all. The world would be a better place without this trendy rubbish cage fighting.
