Krypto Huh?

I know Alan Belcher and I know most of his fighters out of his gyms (one in Biloxi and one in Ocean Springs). I hate that he lost.....and that tat on his arm, if anyone was wondering, was SUPPOSED to be Johnny Cash. How many of you thought it was Mao Zedong?

It looked like a fat Muhammed Ali or a retarded Elvis.

Dana white apparently did rip Brock a new a-hole. In the post fight press conference started off by apologizing to everyone including Bud Light. The post fight press conferences are on UFC.com if anyone wants to see them.

Belcher was robbed.

Any word on whether or not this fight was, in fact, the biggest non wrestling ppv ever?

White just said on First Take they will find out later today, but reports are saying around 1 million buys.

Now, the usual disclaimer: The figures do not include deductions for items such as insurance, licenses and taxes. Additionally, the figures do not include money paid by sponsors, which can oftentimes be a substantial portion of a fighter's income. They also do not include any other "locker room" or special bonuses the UFC oftentimes pays.

For example, as discussed above, the figures above do not include the UFC's traditional "fight night" bonuses. The UFC awarded $100,000 each to Akiyama and Belcher (Fight of the Night), Henderson (KO of the Night) and Lawlor (Submission of the Night).

In other words, the above salary figures are simply base salaries reported to the commission and do not reflect entire compensation packages for the event.

I heard Lesnar got $3 million (which sounded WAY high to me). Is that not accurate?
