Ben Askren: Jorge Masvidal is 'pissed' I'm making double what he makes | Ariel Helwani's MMA Show

Спорт

Ben Askren joins Ariel Helwani's MMA Show live before his Beat the Streets match vs. Jordan Burroughs to talk about his experience in wrestling and what he wants to do within the professional wrestling community. Askren and Helwani talk about Jorge Masvidal's anger towards him, Ben says he doesn't understand why he's upset but if he could guess it's because he is making double what Masvidal makes and has only been in the UFC a short time. Askren goes on to explain that if he could choose a fight between Georges St. Pierre and Khabib Nurmagomedov he would choose St. Pierre because of his experience and longevity in the UFC.

    @Butterfly Massacre - It is a contractual thing. The UFC didn't sit Askren and Masvidal down when the fight was signed and said, 'Here Ben, here is 350,000$ and we are only giving you half of that Jorge'. They don't negotiate for every fight. Jorge might have signed his contract 5 years ago..and it could be a 10 fight deal. So unless he wins the belt or get bonuses, his base pay will not change until he fights out that contract. Sure, the UFC could rip it up and sign him to a new deal. But the new owners are not going to do that when there has been a major dropoff in business.

    @@carriehaley3076 I was just reading about their situation. 2016 was their biggest PPV year. 2017 was bad for PPV, because they are doing too many shows. They aren't building the drama and promotion needed for big matchups and creating big stars. However the ESPN deal pays them 150 million for 15 shows. Then you have PPV, whoever buys Fight Pass, merchandise, and live ticket sales. They do need to be concerned about the current lack of star power, but they are making a ton of money. 2017 was their most profitable year ever and 2019 might be even bigger, apparently their first quarter was massive. They do need to pay fighters more and do less PPV , actually stack the cards and promote the shit out of them. I think it's poor vision for them to let ESPN stream only most events. Free television gets a lot of viewers, it keeps Bellator alive and they are on a crappy network. After looking into what you said, yeah, I'm a little concerned too. However they aren't going under in 2 years, they aren't taking losses financially yet. Personally I hate gimick fights like bringing in NFL and WWE stars, but hey whatever it takes to get some attention.

    Ben was 100% right Jorge hates Ben because he's white and he's not scared of him. That's why Jorge calls Ben a nerd and the fact that Ben doesn't cuss and yell. Jorge probably thinks Ben's weak because he's not ghetto. All people that grew up in the streets think it automatically makes them tougher. What they'll never understand is the type of dedication it takes to be a college wrestler and to get a college degree and an Olympian. While the thugs are out smoking dope,drinking 40s,chasing hoes Ben was working his ass off. Jorge thinks everything was harder for him then for Ben.

    metalshaper I'm sure there's some truth to that. But if you believe you're the best fighter in the world rank shouldn't matter. MMA is starting to turn out to be like boxing everybody wants to pick and choose who they fight obviously they don't believe they're the best or they would fight anybody in their division put in front of them no complaints.
