Alright, let’s talk about this Alex Pereira fella and how much money he’s making. You know, these young folks fighting, they make a whole lot of dough, more than we ever did back in the day, that’s for sure.
This Alex Pereira guy, he’s a big deal in that UFC thing, you know, the fighting on TV. They punch and kick each other, and folks pay good money to watch it. Crazy, if you ask me, but hey, that’s how they make their living.
Now, they say this Pereira, he got the biggest payout at somethin’ called UFC 307. Two point seven million dollars! Can you believe that? Two million, seven hundred thousand smackeroos! Lord have mercy, that’s enough money to buy a whole farm, and then some! Back in my day, we worked our fingers to the bone for a few measly dollars. These young’uns, they get rich punchin’ each other. Go figure.
- Two point seven million is a big number, ya hear?
- That’s more than most folks see in a lifetime.
- Guess punchin’ pays pretty good these days.
They say four of them fighters got over a million dollars at that UFC 307 thing. A million dollars! For one fight! It just boggles the mind, it really does. And then there were some others, they got fifty thousand. Fifty thousand ain’t nothin’ to sneeze at, mind you, but compared to two point seven million? It’s like comparing a chicken to a cow, you know? One’s a whole lot bigger.
This Pereira fella, he wasn’t always makin’ millions, though. When he first started out, they say he got fifty thousand just for showin’ up, another fifty thousand if he won, and then some extra for, I don’t know, fightin’ good or somethin’. And then four thousand for, uh, sponsorship, whatever that is. Sounds fancy, but back then, fifty thousand was probably a big deal to him. Now, shoot, fifty thousand is probably chump change for him.
Now, there’s talk about another fight, UFC 303. They say Pereira’s gonna get even more money for that one. Seems like he stepped in for some other fella, McGregor, who broke his toe. Tough luck for McGregor, good luck for Pereira, I guess. That’s how it goes sometimes, one fella’s misfortune is another fella’s payday.
They say this UFC 303 fight is gonna be Pereira’s biggest payday yet. Makes you wonder how much money these fellas are gonna be makin’ in a few years. Millions and millions, probably. It’s a whole different world than the one I grew up in, that’s for sure. We used to work hard for a few dollars to buy food for the table, now these guys are punching each other and raking in fortunes.
So, this Alex Pereira, he’s makin’ a whole lotta money punchin’ folks. Two point seven million dollars at UFC 307 and it sounds like he might get even more at UFC 303. Good for him, I guess. He’s workin’ hard, even if that work is punchin’ people in the face. And people are willin’ to pay money to watch it, so that’s how the world is workin’ now. It’s all a bit crazy to me, but hey, that’s how the world turns. Times have changed, ain’t they?
One thing’s for sure though, that fella ain’t hurting for money. Two point seven million dollars… land sakes, that’s a lot of money. Enough to buy a whole bunch of cows, and a new tractor, and maybe even one of them fancy cars the city folk drive. Yep, that Alex Pereira fella, he’s doin’ alright for himself.
But you know, money ain’t everything. You gotta have your health too. Hope he don’t get his head knocked off too much with all that fighting. Money is good, but getting your brain scrambled ain’t worth it, no matter how many millions you got.
