Ok hang on a second here…. I could puke right now, you mean to tell me that dirtbag Bisping was paid more to show than Dan Henderson? What the hell is wrong with that picture? At least Dan Henderson got fight the knockout of the night, he should still be pissed.
Now for the second round of puke, how in the hell does Frank Mir, who happens to be a veteran fighter and Black Belt only get $45,000 to fight the one dimensional sorry excuse for an MMA fighter Brock Lesnar? Unreal.
It’s not my wallet, but it seems like the UFC is throwing some serious cash to the lessor talented rookie fighters and shafting some long term vets along the way.

Extremejohn Mir and Henderson have been around for a long time. I would bet money that at the end of the night Mir walked way with alot more than Lesnar did. Mir might have taken a smaller walk in fee to get more points on the ppv buys, thats where the real money is.
