Try and schedule him vs TJ on the Cormier/Brock card and see if he still says no.

yeah both really loving good fights.

i don't care about what dana thinks the fight is worth it is the fight i want to see in the ufc and i hope it happens.

where the gently caress is sean shelby on this. if this was joe silva he'd be pissing in dana's ear non stop, waking him up at 3am offering to pay the difference himself and poo poo.

Agreed and fighters should definitely be paid more across the board

Dana just hates on DJ like it's his second job so I don't know that we'll ever see him get his due

Mr. Carlisle posted:

Holding out for big paydays is not ducking

No one knows the details behind the numbers, but its probably safe to say Diaz was probably offered more than just whatever his contract states. He's over-valuing himself because of the Conor fights, which were both great fights, but Nate isn't a top contender in any division.

Circumstances are a LITTLE different when you made enough money to last you your life (if you weren't a total idiot, which it appears McGregor might be), however he's still been playing the tough guy while ducking every top contender at 155. I really have no idea what kind of astronomical figure he's asking to fight for again, but once again it doesn't seem to be worth it if he's not booked...or they have meet his number and he's playing games, who knows.

Lesnar is a million PPV draw fighting anybody

Diaz is not even close. The ROI isn’t there to pay him dump trucks unless it’s against Conor or GSP.
