Ben Askren-"That $5000 Reebok bonus is cute"

[D241]

Ben Askren got this as a gift from ONE Championship after his fight Friday.
This is the SECOND sweet ride he’s received from the promotion.

18-0
MMA Champion in two major mma promotions
Lost 1 round his entire career

I just noticed I now have an ability to "tag" post. That is AWESOME. This site really is modern.

Good for Ben.

I wish that he hadn't have gotten into a pissing contest with Dana and then had Bjorn kill pretty much any leverage he had in trying to get an offer out of the UFC just so that we could have seen what would have happened if he had fought better competition.

But going to One definitely worked out well for him. It may sound terrible but Chael always joked that he wanted to fight the weakest competition that he could for the most money possible. Ben put that into reality.

Hey, anybody catch the latest episode of INSIDEMMA?

Here's his other one.

Fought in a promotion that paid him well, rewarded him with a couple high priced cars, and took hardly no damage while traveling the world and going undefeated in the process. I'd say Ole Ben did okay for himself.

Ben would've never made this kind of money... they would've shelved him. the UFC is a joke

Hope he made enough to pay insurance and maintenance on those bad boys for the next -0 years.

Ben is fronting. He knows he wants to be the champ in the Big Show, like it or not. He's still playing basketball in Lithuania until he's in the UFC.
