“I was happy when Dana [White] called me and told me about the Reebok deal, I’m like, great, I’m sick of dealing with all these scumbag sponsors.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“No disrespect to the females who are just off the show or whatever, who have one fight in the UFC, and they’re ranked No. 3, over a guy who has been ranked in the UFC for awhile. Let’s say a guy like [Quinton] ‘Rampage,’ [Jackson] who was on [UFC 186], he’s got a huge name, but you’ve got a 115 woman that’s just come up, and she’s going to get more from Reebok than a guy like ‘Rampage’?”<\/em><\/p>\n

Michael Bisping is just one of the many UFC fighters who are elated about the changes made to the UFC\/Reebok sponsorship payout system. The payout was originally based on the media rankings, but UFC officials recently changed the format so it pays out based on tenure.<\/p>\n

‘Ultimate Fighter’ veteran Michael Bisping is happy about the switch for a number of reasons. In an interview with MMAFighting<\/a>, he states that he is hoping this new format will prevent sponsors who cannot truly afford to sponsor a fighter from doing business.<\/p>\n
