Okay, so I was curious about how much those guys who patch up fighters in the UFC, the cutmen, actually make. It’s not something you think about every day, right? So, I decided to dig in and find out.
My Little Investigation
First, I hit up the usual spots – Google, you know, the basics. I typed in stuff like “UFC cutman salary” and “how much do cutmen make in UFC”. I figured there had to be some articles or forum discussions about it.
I spent a good chunk of time sifting through search results. I found some news, forums. I skimmed, I read, I clicked on anything that looked remotely promising. I even watched a couple of videos of guys who claimed to know their stuff. I ignored stuff that only mentions boxing, focusing only on MMA and specifically UFC. I kept a list of numbers mentioned in those fourms or news, and tried to average them.
I made sure to note down any names mentioned, any specific numbers thrown around, and the websites where I found the information. I wanted to be able to go back and check things if I needed to, just to be sure. Then I tried to do some math, calculate the average of salaries, tried to exclude outliers.
It took me a while, maybe a few hours of really digging, but I finally felt like I had a decent handle on the answer. It wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it would be, but hey, that’s how these things go sometimes.
