Jon Jones After UFC fighters and their reps reportedly voiced opposition to rankings-based pay, the promotion has shifted gears on how the money from from its deal with Reebok will be distributed. Now, a fighter’s share of the sponsorship pie will be determined by their experience in the UFC’s octagon, according to a Sports Business Journal report.
