I’m wondering if this is accurate. To me GSP would have to be seen as the highest in earnings. Especially when you consider Brock Lesnar has never headlined a card that GSP wasn’t also headlining. So is it really safe/fair to say brock is ahead of gsp?

[...] the reality of the situation. The UFC has hitched its wagon to Lesnar. He was the dominant PPV attraction for the UFC in 2008 when he fought on three cards. In 2009 when he only fought once he was still [...]

Bubba has a VERY valid point well made

Cote on that list makes it a ja-hoke

would love to see a chart of fighter earnings (base plus bonuses) for 2009 and see what these guys earn relative to what they bring in for dana and his crew

Anything that gives PATRICK Cote any credit for crowd interest is obviously flawed and has no business being used. Ever. The guy has NO drawing power and is a spare part. If Edwin Dewees got a shot at getting his head kicked in (again) by a headliner, he would be on that list. So, for the love of pete, get a grip.

Yes, there are instances where the co-main is perhaps stronger than 30%. By the same token, does anyone believe that UFC 94 wasn’t almost purely St-Pierre vs. Penn?

I think when you you look at the big picture, 70-30 is probably the closest approximation to the drawing split.

It’s not a perfect system, but it’s consistent and gives us an idea of who’s doing what. That was always the main idea.

I get the 70/30 split, but it is very misleading. 101 sold as much on Silva/Forrest as it did on Penn/Florian.

I would also say that GSP deserves a little more credit for UFC 100.
