Allegations on Dana White- UFC being the supreme of combat fighting organization on the planet is undergoing serious criticism regarding its fighters pay. The boss Dana White has been confronted with the issue but White keeps defending his stand.

Fighters receive less than 20% of overall revenue from the promotion. While this is going on, organizations like Bellator pay its fighters over 50% of the profit. Outrage among fans and athletes has been sparked by those numbers and Dana White’s public payment to NELK boys has just added fuel to the situation.

UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou has recently said that their remuneration has made them willing to leave the organization. About the beginning of next year, “The Predator” will be a free agent and has hinted at a fight with Tyson Fury in the ring. Ngannou is not the only fighter, though, to express public dissatisfaction with his salary.

Many fighters have left UFC and joined the billionaire boxing club, notably Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz, next on the list. The situation might get worse if it is un- attended and it might cause a grievous hole in the organization.

The whole UFC wave being against Dana White,Marlon Vera took his stand to defend his boss in his recent interview.

“$8,000 was what I was making when I signed with the UFC, it’s f***ing a lot. Like I know these days everybody’s complaining about payday, Dana’s rich and fighters are poor. Dana wasn’t born rich. Dana [became] rich because [of] how hard he worked.”

Marlon Vera this Saturday is it to face Dominick Cruz at Pechanga Arena San Diego, United States.

Vera currently ranks 5 in the bantamweight division and is one of the leading apexes of the division. He is currently riding a 3-win streak whereas his last loss came via a 3-round unanimous decision with Jose Aldo.

On the other hand, Chito’s weekend opponent, Dominick Cruz, is a two-time bantamweight division champion, and he bears a 13-winning streak in the bantamweight division. The gigantic streak was put to an end through continuous losses to Cody Garbrandt and Henry Cejudo.

The Dominator has recovered from the previous losses and is to throttle back in the division and is again now on a 2-win streak.
