Maybe the $2,000 is in addition to what his Strikeforce purse would have been?

if its reported he “Mousasi” got $2,000 then thats all he his gonna get and we have to believe it. there is no promise of bonus money or side deals or under the table deals right??? What kind of idiot fighter would do something like that (before i get blasted thats sarcasms)

… but M-1 will co-promote, so it’s a win for him.

I would bet they didnt have a finalized deal in place for the set amount of money per fight, remember they got him with little notice. They probably promised a lot of bonus money and after this he will get a pretty good set amount.

Looking into the suspect Mousasi payday as we speak. I’ll keep you guys updated.

Please do Cory. If he gets say 10 grand over this amount I still see it as a complete slap in the face to him.

yea there’s definatly something up with the mousasi payday. 2000$ and not even a win bonus for a title fight knockout? seems fishy. I’m interested to see what fedor’s will be in the upcomming month’s, see what all the hype is about.

What’s that, $467,500 (just doing the math in my head).

Isn’t Mousasi with M-1 Global? There has to be something going on under the table, or as a side deal. $2000 can’t be his payday.
