He is just a funny guy!!!
I wonder who pays him more-Afflication or the UFC
He will not be wearing Afflication clothing tomorrow, but it does not stop him from wearing it all the rest of the time.

Affliction's payroll for its first event was reported to be $6m

That's a big payroll. I'm very interested to see how it works out for them (the first show). I know they are in it for the long haul, so I'd like to see them hit the floor running and give Dana and the UFc something to think about (worry about).

Zag welcome to the board. It was a pleasure to take in the olympic trilas with you last month and look forward to your posts here.

The Airforce wrestling shirts that you gave me have already been worn a couple of times, while I'm out and about here in sunny southern california. Thanks again.

Adolf, an interview with Donald makes the next show seem more modest (not his words, but they will use smaller guys and the card will not stand out like this one). Someone here said the heavyweights on this card will be matched up in a grand prix type fashion, which would be a great tournament as future cards develop.

Adolf-Thanks for the welcome. I have some great stories for you when the time is right. A lot has happened since the trails.

Back to the topic-$6 million-wow, is that based on his shirt sales or straight 1 time pay check? When does his UFC contact end?

?

The six million is supposed to be their payroll (Affliction's) for the night of July 19th.

I miss read, I asked the question "What does Afflication pay Rampage compared to UFC paying him?" I didn't think to read that was their payouts for the July 19th card. Fedor has to be taking a big chunk of that 6 million. I would think at least 1 million???

That would be my guess, somewhere between $1m and $1.5m. Imagine a few other guys are making $500g or more (like Arlovski, Sylvia and possibly Barnett)

Not sure what Rampage is making from the UFC because his last fight was in London (payroll not disclosed) and in his 2 previous fights, he made $170g and $225g . The UFC bought his contract from the WFA and I'm not sure if he renewed that contract or if he is still under the old contract.

Unfamiliar with how much Affliction pays anyone.

I just notice this match added (total mismatch and not even the same weight):

Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (#8 Light Heavyweight in the World)* vs. Edwin Dewees
