I can only imagine how frustrating it is for established fighters, whether it be MMA/Boxing, to see these huge payouts for non-fighters. All the hard work, endless hour’s training, body beat to shit, etc, to earn a tiny fraction of this purse. I feel for the journey men fighters out there.

All comes down to how much people are willing to pay to see a fight. No one is paying BBer's millions to compete in the Olympia. Most everything is a for profit business. You can chase after a career because you like it or because it pays well. It is the rare few that have both. I did what i did for the money.

Uh, where Mariusz

 

[Worldsfastestfatty]

Those 4 are all good buddies - this will be purely an exhibition they have cooked up as a money spinner. I can't see it being a great fight because there won't be much venom in there.

Guess this means Eddie has given up god bodybuilding aspirations? I half figured he was trolling with that anyways...

Seems like abit of a stretch for a prize pool

 

[Alzadosghost]

That fight won’t pay out that much. No chance of that. A lot of the general
Population Doesn’t even know who those guys are.

 

[Virtuous]

I can actually kinda see this being legit. 16 fighters, including 12 pros and 4 giant humans, one day tournament?

I feel like these Qatar boys are trying to create a major blood sport needle mover.

lop a zero off the prize pool, and I think it’ll be realistic, but Qatar CAN throw around that much change without blinking.

I mean... We have cartoon characters running for office, so why the heck not! All these cross overs are ridiculous and insulting to the professionals, but at the same time, amusing and interesting!!

That was my very first thought bro!

The sacrifices they make in the industry only to be pushed aside for social personalities.

I'd take a knockout for a 3rd of that man

 

[comedycentral]

It will be an embarrassing shit show just like his boxing match.

 

[grizzly978]

It’s not any Wilder vs Fury….. always fun to watch the big guys throw.
Put Teo in there , he gets it done in 1 minute

Eh, it is part of the Sport. 99% of the fighters earn an absolute pittance of money from it. Just like it is in any other sport. The top 2% make the money, the rest barely gets by. Even in Bodybuilding, most Pros are spending way more money for the competition than they will ever earn back in their lifetime from prices.

Imho it feels just like it feels for any other normal dude seeing this extremely overpaid athletes playing sportsball getting paid more money in one season than he does earn from his hard shitty job in a decade. Like I don't know how many years of construction work it would take me to earn what one Football Guy from one of the big Clubs gets paid in one season. A Decade maybe lol?
