    One revelation in this article is that the fighters pay for their own uniforms out of the endorsement contract, including trainers and coaches. Coaches with multiple fighters on the same card pay for multiple duplicate uniforms. Also coming out of the money are employees of Reebok who are present to enforce the uniform code.

    Hey, remember when DFW said "100% of the money" was going to fighters?
