Goddamn that's a lot. He did take a lot of ****** fights for big paydays, plus I imagine with all the sponsorships he put away a lot. Hopefully he doesn't go the way of most athletes and ends up in the gutter.

Does he REALLY have all that much money? Wow that's more than top UFC fighters that get PAID. Now I understand why he lost all those fights.

That's because he's spent the last years making money rather than building a career ... smart choice, Bobbu Sappu gets the last laugh and sails into the sunset ...

Still to this day I cannot believe Bob Sapp knocked Ernesto Hoost out twice.

I was looking at the top 40 best paid MMA fighters in the world and one thing stood out. JDS has 10 million dollars and Cain Velasquez only has 1 million. I checked multiple sources. All had about the same figures. Both fighters have had 12 fights in UFC and CV is 11-1 with 2 wins over JDS and JDS is 10-2 with 1 win over 
Velasquez and 2 losses vs him. Their last fight was at UFC 166 at the Toyota center in Houston Texas. Anybody know the PPV buys for that event? You would think Velasquez as champion would have had the better PPV buy bonus. Did Cain sign a really bad contract? Don't get me wrong. I have no problem with JDS having 10 million in earnings but Velasquez only has 1 million?

good for him and he still has his wits to enjoy that money.

although what he probably means by "making smart investments" with guruwhothe****ishe was betting against himself in his last 10 fights

I honestly wanted to see how long of a losing streak he could keep going.
