I have zero faith that the Reebok payouts will ever get better. Unless you are a veteran of 30 fights under the UFC banner you may never see a proper sponsorship amount again. I’ve said it before that Dana White, who I hold in the highest regards calling naysayers fat and moronic upon criticism only adds fuel to the backlash. There comes a point where Bellator will have to use this as a selling point for fighters to jump ship. Then again, Scott Coker may just let that fire burn on its own for fighters to figure it out for themselves. Either way – it’s ridiculous what the UFC main event level talent receive.
