Okay, there must be something in the water here in New Mexico. Not only was Waterson well off her usual game, but
@SeverianB just openly admitted to not being imprezzed by her performanz (even going so far as to bringing her career into question.) Never thought I'd see the day! Perhaps the real
@SeverianB has been abducted by aliens.
The posted purses are rather grim. If that's all fighters are getting paid, I certainly don't feel like UFC is any better than other organizations. Bigger, yes. Better? Sure doesn't sound like it. Fight once or twice per year for chump change? There's no way fighters can make a living with that. Perhaps Waterson is tired from working the drive-thru at Golden Pride to make ends meet. *Kidding. I haven't actually seen her there.*
It makes me wish I could still buy Invicta fight cards directly from Invicta. I'd rather more of my funds go directly to that organization (as opposed to one or two kernels from a Fight Pass sub.) Even if it would make no difference whatsoever, I could at least let myself believe that it would benefit fighters who put so much on the line.
