it’s because most of you are ufc casuals. only watching ufc while having no clue about other organizations & fighters. mma is not for you, ufc is for you
When he said British fighters doing well is good for the sport, I don't know exactly why, but he's right. It's such strong energy coming from that fan base and from those fighters. I honestly think it's just because they're all from blue collar working class scrums or tough upbringings of a society that has seen the working class robbed at every turn. When you take that energy and put it into the right place, it can really turn on strong and become a positive thing.
Man that hit when he said alot of family members who he rarely speaks to suddenly begins trying to talk with him. Seems like a geniune dude and hope he wins another one if thats his plans
If PFL do a live draw for the matchups I will 100% invest in watching the whole thing. Imagine all the fighters in attendance and they get drawn and then faceoff for the first time! That would be fantastic!
Been through it all this lad thrill and agony been watching him for time felt good to see him finally get that big pay day I actually felt proud for a man I’ve never met

@@PiffFighting not necessarily, he has to win multiple fights to get that 1 mil, might never get it again. If he believes he has what it takes to be a UFC Champ, he would probably get more money in UFC.
It was really irritating how the announcer somehow managed to suggest to every fight winner that took home a million dollars (well, won a million, based on NY taxes the take home is around $568k - then after the reality of the astronomical expenses that come along with fighting [trainers, coaches, not sure if managers would come into play with a PFL tournament like this, etc], VERY conservatively calling those expenses 15% would leave each million dollar winner with around $483k). That's still a LOT of money.. but not buy yourself and your mom a new house and ascend you into the upper echelon of society kind of money as some suggest. But back to the irritating part - how the announcer managed to suggest that the money was THE important part to basically every winner. Those people worked themselves half to death and literally fought themselves half to death to become champions. It seems a bit insulting to their integrity to just be like "yeah the belt is cool, but how about what REALLY matters, this giant gold Publisher's Clearing House check that's as much of a pat on the back to the PFL as it is a legitimate help to the fighter(s). The whole "richest night in MMA" thing is obviously an attempt to make PFL look like they're handling fighter pay better than UFC. I don't know what the breakdown is like all across the spectrum for the various promotions regarding how much people of varying success get paid from the duds to the champs, but knowing that certain individual fighters have in the past had more than the $6m total from "the richest night in MMA" lining their pockets just to set foot in the arena, regardless of the result.. the "richest night in MMA" thing is clearly a campaign, clearly an attempt to advertise their supposed goodwill just as much as it is to take care of their fighters - otherwise they wouldn't lean so heavily on the "wow, a million dollars, you're so luckyyy" schtick. At least not to the point of it being so cringeworthy.
Ufc champions earn at least 2 million a fight and can fight around 2 to 3 times a years. Pfl fighters that are actual contenders for the million dollar prize are top 15-8 ranked fighters at best in the ufc.
@@robertt8822 no it won't. Its £800k when transferred to UK currency. Say atlease 100-200k in expenses for last year, coaches cut, flight's, nutritionists, manager cut etc. Taxed in US and likely UK -400K minimum. hes left with about 2-300k. Still good but not set for life good.
Didn't know him before but wow, what a likable guy this is! So happy for him!

The Best fighters are often poor, hungry and have no education. Life has been a fight since birth.
him vs burgos is a great fight

Sad to say last week I didn't even know of Brendan (yep casual). But looking forward to following. Great interviews.

The fight was fireworks. The 1 million reward in PFL is superb...
@@Evl.28239 at the start of the video he literally says it comes off the semi and the final .
@@Evl.28239 He got a 1 million cheque for the whole competition

This guy's nasty. Him and bubba both gained a fan
same facts s/o to bubba takes 2 to dance and brendan is real deal
what a nice young man, hope to see him as a champion in the UFC
Would love to see him vs max holloway!
@@Maartun I think Holloway loses that fight
First time I've seen this dude fight was last weekend and I am already screaming for the UFC to sign him
He was on contender series and Dana didn’t sign him he’s better off getting paid a mill to win the pfl tournament than fighting in ufc
@@PiffFighting not necessarily, he has to win multiple fights to get that 1 mil, might never get it again.

@@liverpooljft9623 Dana said no
Dana didn't sign him, because He shot for a takedown in the 3rf round...buh he still won. Dana a bum
Congratulations Brendan! Was a really good fight and a well deserved win!
Enjoy bruv!
About time Ariel covers fighters from other promotions...
Was a great performance he put it on Jenkins
Im glad ufc didnt take him, enjoy the million bro
Duck me he would off had 30 fights in the ufc and still not earned that much
Nice humble guy deserves his success
It's crazy how many fighting leagues pay 1 million dollars to elite fighters then you have elite UFC fighters getting 70k
What a top bloke!
Impressed with Ariel and his football opinions.
What a guy
Shout out from M40 bro
Good Dude
