Former UFC champion in two weight classes Conor McGregor commented on fighters' complaints about being underpaid in the promotion.
"The UFC is a key platform in any fighter's career. Being in the UFC is prestigious in itself, so you have to realize that you can accept a lower amount of money here compared to the fees that other leagues in the market are offering. That's the value of the UFC brand, it carries a huge amount of weight. Look at how this mechanism has worked for me. It has helped me to reach other levels where I have had great success," - quotes McGregor Irish Mirror.
Recall that 35-year-old McGregor has not competed since 2021, when he lost by technical knockout to Dustin Puryear.
