Wow!

MMA is definitely surpassing boxing not only in popularity but in salaries as well.

I would've thought that a boxing veteran like B.J. Flores would be making way more than 12,500 dollars.

It's a sign of the times indeed.

Those are some of the lowest boxing salaries EVAR!

Only the top guys in boxing ever made any money... and MMA isn't even close to paying anything near what they make.

Um, the top two salaries at the event are boxer salaries. And even Lashely (a wrestler) is making more than a veteran like Monson. Sorry, but boxing dosen't seem to be going anyhere just yet.
