Hmmm they were actually good salaries overall.

Do you know if Jen's original salary was that? or is there a bonus included already???

**edit

I already checked, there's a 30 grand bonus included already

Swanson only $5K for that fight and waited almost 6 months?

That would blow.

Indeed. That is such a long haul compared to what his opponent Jens Pulver got paid.
