UFC president Dana White says bigger paydays are on the way for WEC
fighters, at least for the time being.
On Saturday, the UFC’s sister organization asks fans to pony up $44.95
for WEC 48 at the ARCO Arena in Sacramento, Calif. – the same price as a
UFC pay-per-view card.
Many observers have noted a disparity in pay between WEC fighters and
UFC fighters. However, White said that gap will narrow Saturday – at
least temporarily – as the WEC moves from the smaller money in cable
television to the dynamic and potentially lucrative world of
pay-per-view.
