UFC women’s fighter Sarah Alpar recently started a GoFundMe asking fans for donation

Sarah Alpar’s recent GoFundMe has once again blown open the UFC fighter pay issue. The women’s fighter recently started a GoFundMe asking for donations from fans to cover her training camp and other fight related expenses.

Alpar had set a goal of $30000 on her GoFundMe. In the most unexpected of moments, she received a whopping $5000 from YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. A stupefying 1/6th of the goal.

Paul let the world know that he had donated Alpar $5000, while also taking a dig at the UFC’s pay structure.

He wrote:

“SMH… Imagine a rookie in the NBA had to start a GoFundMe to play.. I let Sarah @TOOSWEET_Alpar know she has my support and contribution It’s my honor and privilege to help fellow fighters in anyway I can.”

Probably more then Dana will pay her for the fight

That's pretty cool of you.

I know it's a backhand to Dana White but you still helped someone out in the process. Sounds like a win win.

And, there were a few salty ones as usual:

Its really a good move. But it just was to fuck up dana.. Would U do this donations in secret just to feel u better..? That makes u a better person bra not acting like beeing a better person like someone else..
