But if ever one of them suffered serious injuries $3500-9,000 payment for one fight is just not enough to cover, they should have at least medical insurance, this is a maiden venture but they cannot continue paying that low amount, and once they established superstars on their league, they should also start increasing the fighter's payout or the people will criticize Dana's organization for too much profiteering.
They must have health insurance to protect their health if, after the match, they experience minor or serious injuries so they can be treated by a doctor as soon as possible. And their income in the match can be big because they provide entertainment for the audience, and if the match can increase television ratings, their pay will be even bigger.
The fighters who compete in this competition are professionals and know the consequences so they are also aware of that I think. Apart from anything this is another tough type of fight apart from UFC because when we talk about dangerous then I think the conditions are a bit the same but because there is the word "professional" there this kind of danger doesn't really matter.
This is a business and money as long as this battle can bring in money for businessmen, this is clearly an opportunity, right?
It may look dangerous for us but not for them because they have trained well and prepared for a long time. The business has been doing well in providing entertainment for the audience, and of course, they make a lot of money from the event.
There may have been some fighters who had suffered injuries after the fight was over, but they still seemed to be able to handle them just fine. They are professionals who are experts in their field, so that it won't be too dangerous for them.
Did you two watch any slap fight competitions? There is no "professionalism" in slapping each other, you just need a strong hand and a hard head, but even that will not save you from the consequences... serious head/brain/neck injuries, and it doesn't matter how strong someone is, after a while the brain turns into a trot from so many "direct" hits! This is a brutal "sport" (if we can call it that), there is no technique or strategy, you just need to be strong as a bull and insanely crazy to do this!
I don't like this slapping at all, and I will never watch it again let alone bet on it! For sure someone made a business out of it (it's insane what we can see on tv or online), I guess it's not so hard to find some people with a mental diagnosis to slap each other and be proud of that, while others are making a profit on that! This world is crazy!
But they can still be professional in providing entertainment to those who watch it so that people will think it is a serious game. This is part of a reality show trying to get a large audience. Still, unfortunately, it contains scenes of violence that are inappropriate for young children to see. And all of this is because of the huge amount of money around the game and probably the many sponsors that will support it.
