Rampage Jackson Says the UFC Lies About Their Pay-Per-View Buys | UFC NEWS
“In my opinion, I feel like me and the rest of the UFC fighters are getting taken advantage of. I feel like the UFC is cleaning house. The pay-per-view dollars? They tell me one number, but then they tell the press another. Pay me the numbers that you tell the press! Don’t tell me, ‘Oh, we only sold this many,’ then you tell the press, ‘Oh we sold this many!’ But then I’m saying, ‘Hey, you only told me we sold 800,000 buys but you told the press you sold a million buys.’ Then they say ‘Oh, we just say that for the press.’ No, pay me what you told the press because you lyin’ somewhere. You either lyin’ to me or you lyin’ to the press about the pay-per-view numbers. If they’re doing it to me, I’m sure they’re doing it to other fighters.”

SMH.. will this guy just shut up already.. I mean how much can you complain about? If it was that bad why the hell would you stay in the UFC so long??? Rampage turned into a big crybaby
Stop yer yapping and win a fight. Don’t worry about $$$.
This dam chick is full of shit too.. Crying about leg kicks acting like she needs to pause a moment…WTF !!!
Uhmm.. Isn’t it a well known thing that the UFC NEVER released it’s PPV buys to the press?
true tho the way he says it its not just bitching without backing it up… i dont doubt that the ufc threats its fighters well but its not hard to believe that they try to keep some money in their pockets without mentionning so
Salute to RAMPAGE. He’s a real dude spitting real knowledge that goes over most theses people’s heads.
All rampage does is complains, whines and slams the UFC, then he complains because he doesn’t get a post fight interview after his last losing fight. Why should he get a chance to further slam the UFC in front of the public and National Television. He is the one that created the problem!
I saw the fight live and seeing him leave the cage he should have had a post fight interview because when he walked out he stood there looked at all the fans and straight appologized so if he was given the mic he probably would have done that but from the UFC view hell no i would not give him the mic
get ready for some major league snitching from page
Yawn!!! Excuses, Excuses, and Excuses… Why the F would the UFC want to do a post fight interview with page when all he does is bioch?
Go to Bellator so King Mo can kick your ass!!!
Just shut up already, if you spent more time training so you could win a fight. You wouldn’t be complaining about your payday. Losers always make less than winners. Try to actually win a fight.
Jeez chris!! Ive never heard this much whining even when I play Black Ops 2. Used to love Rampage, but between his Inspirational tweets and his crying I think Ive had enough. If youre a fighter, just phuckin fight. How you supposed to win when youre too busy worrying about an additional 100-200,000 PPV buys. Kinda pathetic
CRYBABY!!!!!! NOW RAMPAGE IS CRYING ABOUT KICKS USED BE TAKEDOWN AND WRESTLING. JUST ****IN QUIT CRYBABY THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING COME ON!
its bullshit how much fighters get paid compared to boxers
Well we sold 800k People missed ita nd bought the other ppv on ufc or xbox 360 replay or w.e u get 24 hours to watch the fight? is there a cap limit on the ppv buys? thats like saying u only said u sold 50…… why you lie…. im like i sold 30 more last night or earlier…… ok i sold 50 stop there i want some iw anna see i wanna buy ok then ill make more go ahead
RAMPAGE BEING A BITCH, IF THEY REALLY LIED THE UFC PPV NUMBERS TO HIM AND HE WAS SUPPOSED TO GET A CUT THEN HE CAN SUE THEM SO EITHER SUE THEM OR SHUT THE **** UP, PLUS I LOVE RAMPAGE BUT HE HASNT BEEN SHIT SINCE HE PUT OUT CHUCK AND WANDY, ALWAYS OUT OF SHAPE AND TOO SLOW!
