Cavax88, 12/11/2009 21.51: Negli ultimi ranking di vari siti che ho visto Werdum non c'è mai nella Top 10 invece. Anzi, ora ho visto e c'è in qualcuna, ma oltre il 9°-10° posto non va.

Ganjapeople, Inc., 12/11/2009 22.31: Tra l'altro auguri UFC, se non era per Cavax non ne avrei avuto idea. (E chissà che quel 17 non sia un po causa della sfortuna di quest'annata ?
E.Ganzerli, 13/11/2009 1.27: Contando che han fatto il buyrate più alto di sempre per UFC 100 proprio sfortunatissimi non sono :)
Cavax88, 13/11/2009 9.09:UFC 105 snobbata ma e' anche normale, e' su Spike e va bene come card per quello, pero' dovendo essere sinceri mi interessano solo Couture vs. Vera e Hardy vs. Swick che in un PPV normale non sarebbero assolutamente da main-event (e neanche da co, forse Couture vs. Vera, ma solo perche' il pur bravo per la sua eta' ma sempre "coccolo di Dana" Randy).
The Promotional Agreement. (Fedor-Affliction) --Fedor is to be paid a $300,000 purse per fight. --The contract arranges for four first class tickets and three coach tickets from St. Petersburg to wherever the fight is. It also arranges for four first class hotel rooms for up to five nights, round trip transportation on the ground, and meal allowances. This section is more extravagant than equivalent UFC contract provisions for its top stars. -- The contract calls for three fights under the Affliction banner, and makes Affliction the exclusive home of Fedor fights in the United States. However, the contract states that any fight between Fedor Emelianenko and Randy Couture is excluded from the contract and can take place elsewhere. It's clear that when this contract was signed Fedor and M-1 were still shopping around a potential Couture fight incase he ever got out of his contract. This also further confirms that Affliction never had the rights to this fight. --The contract states that it ends on the earlier of two dates: March 31, 2009 or after Fedor's last fight, unless the contract is extended. This will be a serious litigation battleground; M-1 will argue that Affliction extended the contract by promoting a third show. I find this argument fairly convincing. --Affliction agreed to make all efforts to feature a M-1 logo on the mat. Fedor was allowed to choose any sponsor as long as there was no conflict with Affliction. --Fedor Emelinaenko reserved all rights to distribute and exploit his bouts in Russia and Asia. He had the right to retain all revenue from the sale, license, or any other exploitation of his reserved rights to market the broadcast. There are other specifics regarding Affliction's responsibility to provide Fedor and M-1 with a high definition feed. The rights include streaming rights, and extend beyond Fedor's fights to the undercard and preliminary fights. You can imagine the UFC would never agree to such a term. The Consulting Agreement (Affliction-M1) --M-1 was to provide consulting on all the following topics: International bout consulting, international television, fighter scouting, location for future bouts recommendations, television-related opportunities, international sponsorships, and bout tourism. --M-1 was also required to fully cooperate and assist in the advertising and promotion of each fight. --In exchange for these consulting services, Affliction agreed to pay M-1 a consulting fee of $1,200,000 per fight. --Affliction was required to promote the M-1 Global brand through promotional activities including: Articles in event programs, M-1 Global's logo incorporated into Affliction advertising, M-1 logo recognition with event advertising, public address announcements during the bouts, the airing of M-1 videos announcements during events, and the creation and sale of co-branded M-1 and Affliction event posters. I believe there is still one more consulting agreement out there based on my reading of M-1's lawsuit, but Affliction did not disclose it here. Just counting these two agreements, Fedor Emelianenko received $300,000 per fight while M-1 Global received 1.2 million. Fedor Emelianenko is a 20% owner of M-1 Global.
