Body: UFC 77 Prostitution Pay
Matt Grice & Alvin Robinson should seriously consider taking their talents to an organization that "Respects" them, as Randy Couture has said he didn't receive from the UFC... Now I get it.
UFC, please clean up your act and pay the fighters a living wage in the very least.
This makes me sick.

Anderson Silva received $40,000 for his KO
Matt Grice & Jason Black received $40,000 each for the Fight of the Night which paying viewers did not get to see.
Maia received $40,000 for submission of the night.
Total base payout = $652,000 + Fight bonuses ($160, 000) = $812, 000.
Ticket sales = $2,519,850 from the 16, 000+ in attendance.
This leaves $1,707,850 gross profit to pay for the expenses of running such an event. Pay per view monies are factored in as a separate revenue stream altogether.
