Luke Thomas over at BloodyElbow.com has gotten his hands on the fighter payouts from the Strikeforce/EliteXC Judgment Day show last weekend.
-Frank Shamrock ($1.3 million) def. Phil Baroni ($75,000)
-Cung Le ($100,000) def. Tony Fryklund ($12,000)
-Murilo “Ninja” Rua ($50,000) def. Joey Villasenor ($32,000)
-Paul Buentello ($50,000) def. Carter Wiliams ($25,000)
-Paul Daley ($30,000) def. Duane “Bang” Ludwig ($15,000)
-Edson Berto ($25,000) def. Victor Valenzuela ($30,000)
-Josh Thomson ($15,000) def. Nick Gonzalez ($10,000)
With numbers like these it’s easy to see why guys like Nick Diaz, Sokoudjou, and many others are taking a long hard look at all their options before just “giving in” to the UFC.
