    Yes agreed. Chael didn’t want to admit that Francis bet on himself (ultimately even if stupidly) paid off. Ariel don’t want to admit that Francis made a dumb business move without much forethought but it miraculously worked… The more I type the more I think Chael lost this lol. Chael made many brilliant points but it’s not about those arguments. Ariel wanted Chael to admit he got it wrong about Ngannou’s bid for success and Chael won’t do that 😂 and I love Chael and never watch Ariel

    @@klassicjammer7322 One correction - Francis's bet on himself -paid off- is to pay off yet, as he would make around the same figure (10kk) in the UFC, granted he would have fought around 3 times a year. So yes, Francis did a big bet on himself, probably earned a little bit more than he would get in his previous company, but he has no future deal thats sustainable - no MMA until (at best) end of 2024, no boxing promotion being signed to = signing to another one-off deal? You can argue, but even the best one-offs are not sustainable, it's pretty much always a loss, flip that 20D dice (with 19 faces saying LOSS) a few times, and I'm sure you will understand my point. 20D is generous for real life metaphor, tho :D

    but you’re missing the point ariel made, that saudis are putting the money, and dont play by the norm rules so francis doesnt need a promoter. the saudis will put up the money even if the event bombs. on the flip side, apart from wilder, there are no fights in the hw division as one off events, so money wise its on a par with ufc for francis. he makes the same money albeit in lesser fights, but his legacy in the ufc suffers. not to mention if he loses to a ruiz, he has a problem. RISK vs reward taking everything into account. that’s chaels point but he hasn’t articulated that properly.@@pawegrzanka5494

    Ariel wanted the UFC to lose MONEY but Dana was wise when he let Ngannou go instead of giving in to what he demanded even though he wasnt really selling PPVs. Chael was right. The promotion lost a LOT of money. Francis had his payday but he didn't really MAKE any money for the promotion. Arirl was insisting that it didn't bombed because Francis got paid but promoters LOST money and nobody really watched that fight.

    What chael is saying is right. Francis is a big fight. The problem is without having a contract promoters wont put francis in a position to win a belt. So logically theres no reason to do it unless theres a cash grab with no belts, but most boxing promotions historically havent made money. So how can there be a cash grab while losing money. Chael is going back to the who, what, why, where and when. Who is obviously a champion which wont happen unless the belts not on the line. What is which sport. Why, well it obviously cant be for a belt without a contract. Where is easy, anywhere. When definitely matters because they just tried to sell a fight during (free telecast) college football season.

Also, he might've lied some bit or overestimated about how much Francis has really made, but it doesn't change the fact that francis has "won" his battle against dana and that should be rubbed as hard as possible. dana was talking all crap about francis up until he got his money fight with fury, now he got the money fight, succesfully made the fight and money. So almost like karma, its should be rubbed into public as hard as possible.

I’m sure it has to do more with his feud with Dana and getting clicks rather than he’s j obsessed with fighters getting paid what they deserve.

Yes, there is a comical contradiction between the two statements: one signals that hes neither invested nor participating whatsoever and is just being an observer, statement B pretends that he was in fact an active player all along who had a clear opinion on the situation and clearly supported Ngannou in his steps. If you dont see the almost infantile fallacy in it, perhaps dont bother arguing with people non the internet.

    Ariel doesn’t understand that although Francis was paid his guarantee, the company that paid him lost money and the ppv bombed. This means Francis got nowhere near $10 million in ppv and the company will be hesitant to lose money on another event like this. Knowing this, other promoters (the real promoters in the sport) will also be hesitant to spend money promoting Francis knowing the previous promoters lost money. He wants to say, “Francis stuck it to the man, he made a bunch of money” and ignore all the facts.

    The Saudis don’t care about money. They are sportswashing to improve the image of their country. Ngannou was paid what he was offered regardless of the ppv numbers.

    Why do you assume that pay per view is the only way an event makes money? Sponsors don't care how many people bought the event they care about how many watched the event. The sponsors don't pay hundreds of thousands for a tiny spot on the canvas of the ring out of charity.

    Charl lost this argument so many times over and over again. He showed he is a liar but called Ariel a liar, then gets and when Ariel calls him a liar. Also he showed denial beyond belief. His loyalty to Dana white and espn is admirable but Francis did win and gone win even bigger next 3-5 fights in boxing cus Ariel is right he won’t have to sign 3 fight boxing deal or go by their rules he gone go by gimik promotion and Francis rules cus the prince and boxing world needs him. Heavyweight contender and boxing was not doing great.
