MMA fighters don't make as much money as they probably should. Although companies like UFC don't normally disclose how much money fighters are paid for participating in fights, it's safe to say that the biggest names in MMA aren't making anything close to what the biggest names in boxing are making. Hell, they're probably not even making what the lower-tier boxers are making. So what can they do in order to earn bigger purses and get more rights within the MMA community?

It's not going to be easy. But Cage Potato just put together a piece that explores this very issue. They break down what MMA fighters need to do in order to get a bigger piece of the MMA pie. If you're an MMA fan, it's must-read material. Go check it out over here.
