Sounds like Bodog is trying to go out of business.

That is a lot of money. I could have sworn though that your first post can't be a thread. Oh well maybe I'm wrong.

With that much money in one fighter, how are they supposed to surround him w/ a decent card? They'll barely be able to bring in decent challengers. I hope he enjoys those paychecks, cause they won't last long.

It doesn't really matter who Fedor fights, we've already determined that he can beat all comers 100 percent of the time no matter what, right? You obviously weren't paying attention to the conversation after the Lindland match.

The fact that he's almost assured to smash anyone in front of him doesn't mean I want to see him in there w/ crappy fighters.

And as great as he is, I'd rather not pay for a ppv on which he's the only decent fighter. Paying him that much leaves almost no budget to pay other quality fighters.

Well I knew they were paying him a lot and I know Bodog can afford it because the owner has very very deep pockets. In Fedor's most recent interview he mentioned Bodog's upcoming cards but he said he was not going to be fighting on them. You can catch all that and more on the thread I posted the other day titled "New Fedor Interview"

Calvin Ayre, the owner of Bodog is a billionaire, he has deeper pockets than ZUFFA. He wipes his ass with $3 million, bodog is not going anywhere unless they choose to.

You have a good point. I would not blame Fedor if he did take it. That would suck though.
