The UFC is constantly bombarded with criticism because of how much they pay their fighters purses. Especially compared to the boxing bags the biggest names in MMA do not arrive at the feet of stars like Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather. What to say then of young champions like Renan Barao. The problem of Natal, belt holder Roosters Ultimate, which is within the organization is still great disparity between younger and older fighters. And of course, he has his eye on when power will "weep" a raise.
Baron won the interim belt Roosters in 2012, was officially recognized as champion owner in early 2014, but even having made his first successful title defense, is still crawling to reach the level of names like Jon Jones and Jose Aldo companion.
And do not think just crying Natal. The criticism of Baron is having compared their earnings and those of a rival he already defeated twice and it was never a UFC champion: Urijah Faber. In the rematch between them, in the main event of UFC 169, the U.S. earned $ 100,000. The Brazilian had predicted to win about one tenth of that: $ 11 000. With the win, the gap has narrowed since his award doubled to $ 22 000.
"I am thrilled to be a champion in the UFC but I would like improve my contract actually an example:.. Know that Faber is an older guy, but he is not the champion, and has a much better bag that my inside the UFC, "said Renan Barao, the UOL Sport . Baron is undefeated in the UFC, in seven fights. Faber, a former WEC champion, fought nine times in the UFC and has won six times.
The problem of Natal is that it still has three fights on his contract. If there is no anticipated increase in current provisions, only in negotiating a renewal figures should change.
What he hopes is that the organization see in their work and in their effort deserving to be cherished. So to be "saving" a card with their involvement in UFC 173 on May 24.
"It's part, we are working to make it better. Hopefully after this fight is likely a much better contract. Hopefully better every day. This is the contract, but I hope they remember that rescued an event," added the smiley Baron , who defends his belt against TJ Dillashaw. They make the main event in Las Vegas in a card that had planned to fight middleweight champion Chris Weidman - first against Vitor Belfort, and then against Lyoto Machida and now postponed to UFC 175.
"I prefer to rest a little, but as the UFC needed my job, I'm here to save the event. Unfortunately Weidman got hurt, then they called me and I accepted.
's always good to fight these big events, I was very happy. "
Remember that the UFC gives cash bonuses to the fighters of the best match of the night and the two best performances of the event - usually knockout and / or submission -. So Baron always competes to a considerable improvement in payment, since the bonus is $ 50,000. It is important to note also that the scholarship amount released by athletic commissions do not count earnings from sponsors and other sources of income of the fighters.
