One of UFC's most colourful characters, Dan "The Beast" Severn competed at a time when bareknuckle boxing was common and MMA judging didn't even exist.
He spoke recently with MMAmicks.com to offer his view on fighter pay, judging and the new faces in the UFC more than 20 years after he made his own debut.
On fighter pay, Severn said fighters are doing better than in his days, but UFC could afford more.
I would hope to see MMA eventually rival the pay days of boxing. These athletes, sure they are making more money now then we used to.
