Payout Perspective:

Cyborg with another big payday.  The $500,000 appears to be her reported purse limit but she likely receives a pay per view cut.  Notable payouts include $275,000 for Arlovski, $195,000 for Edgar in a losing effort and Mackenzie Dern receiving $25,000 and $25,000 in her promotional debut.

Yes, the Pulitzer-winning journalist is the source we should ignore, not the people who continue to want access to the LA sports team they cover. This was a dumb thing to think and an even dumber thing to tweet.
