White Explains Uniform Concept Meant To Help Fighters Make Money

By BJPENN.COM News - February 18, 2014

“It’s not as big as everybody makes it out to be. Those are the guys that are making tons of money anyway, and they make big money on sponsorship. The lower level guys? They’re not making a bunch from sponsorship. We just saw the thing go down with Mac Danzig. He said, ‘I’m done. I don’t want to deal with this anymore.’

Do you know how many fighters call me and say they don’t want to deal with sponsorships anymore? What can you do? It’s not as plentiful as everybody makes it out to be.”

There’s been some commotion from a few fighters regarding the UFC’s proposed uniform policy. However, during his recent media luncheon the UFC boss clarified the reasoning behind such a change.

Think it’s the right thing to do?
