This, 380k for RDA and you can expect that he’ll get 500k for the Woodley fight.He made 71k for his fight with DHK (33k/33k plus reebok)
He made 83k for his fight with Maia (39k/39k plus reebok)
He made 380k for his fight with RDA (350k show plus 30k for fight week)
So, I would say yes the trash talk paid off.
He's made a lot of noise within the MMA buble, but as far as I'm aware, hasn't really made any progress outside it. His twitter/instagram numbers, which are fairly good indicators of mainstream popularity, are not all that high.
Fighting for the title helped him get paid, but the trash talk for sure didn't hurt.This, 380k for RDA and you can expect that he’ll get 500k for the Woodley fight.
#NerdBash2018 has already been a success for him. If he someone beats Woodley there is no doubt all this cringe was worth it.
Has nerd bash been a success though? He still has an embarrassing amount of followers. He was stripped instantly after being interm champion because he didnt generate enough attention. Him getting a big pay day for a title fight is sweet though. But honestly the guys got a good style to beat lots of WW. I think he would have got that money and that fight without embarrassing himself and the 12 fans who think nerdbash isnt actually about them.This, 380k for RDA and you can expect that he’ll get 500k for the Woodley fight.
