American mixed martial arts veteran Derek Brunson compared fees in the two leading MMA promotions in the world.
Let us remember that last year, 39-year-old Brunson moved from the UFC to the PFL, defeating Ray Cooper in his debut fight.
“It was definitely the largest fee in my life. A very substantial amount, I would say much more than in the UFC.
Any athlete performing at a high level wants to win. Nobody thinks that if you were paid a fat check, then you can lose. But “the feeling that I’m well taken care of makes a huge difference,” Brunson was quoted as saying by BJ Penn.
