As ‘Strikeforce: Tate vs. Rousey’ nears, Pat Healy stumps for fight-night bonuses
Pat Healy is happy being a Strikeforce fighter and said he now has the financial freedom to travel and train in different locations.
But there’s one little incentive that would be nice to have in the promotion: bonuses.
“Strikeforce guys have been asking about it since the (fighters) summit,” Healy told MMAjunkie.com Radio. “I know it’s a hot topic on a lot of people’s minds. I really could see them doing it this fight.”

Strikeforce CEO would like to see “Fight Night” bonuses
In the past, Strikeforce fighters had their win bonus, the roar of the
crowd and a smiling promoter to look forward to if they gave their all
inside the cage.
But that promoter would like to give them a little extra incentive – like extra cash.
Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker said he’s lobbying for “Fight Night” bonuses
at future events, and the promotion’s new owner, Zuffa, LLC, could make
that happen.
