Explanation For Fedor Emelianenko's Affliction "Banned" Salary
Posted by Dustin James on 07.26.2008



After the Affliction "Banned" PPV last weekend, it was reported that Fedor Emelianenko only earned $300,000 for his 36 second victory over Tim Sylvia (who earned a reported $800,000). However, NBCSports.com has revealed the reason for Fedor's salary and needless to say, it's not as bad as it sounds:

"Emelianenko received a sizable part of his Affliction contract up front in the form of a signing bonus, and added that Emelianenko also owns the rights to his fight footage in several European countries. That second part may not mean much right now but if Affliction chooses to hold an event in Europe, they would have to pay him for the footage."

And thats why Fedor will probably never be in the UFC.

Oh crap! So does that mean if I download the Fedor/Sylvia fight, Fedor has the legal right to come to my house and remove one of my limbs!!!!

Oh crap, my downloading days are gone forever... and I'm okay with it.

1)Fedor will destroy me
2)I wouldn't want to hurt his pocket book in any way.
