UFC veteran Jorge Masvidal has achieved a significant victory in his legal battle against the online platform Fanmio. A Florida judge ruled in favor of Masvidal, granting him a default judgment exceeding $5 million.<\/p>\n
Judge Beatrice Butchko Sanchez approved Masvidal’s request, following the ruling of an arbitrator who awarded the former BMF champion the sum of $5,315,268.64, in addition to post-judgment interest related to his boxing match.<\/p>\n
Masvidal sued Fanmio in January, arguing that his agreement for the fight against Nate Diaz included a $6 million purse, plus an additional million if he won the fight. Masvidal lost the fight by decision and claimed to have received only a $150,000 advance and a $1 million payment.<\/p>\n
The referee ruled in favor of Masvidal, and with the final approval, this matter has been resolved.<\/p>\n
Despite this victory for Masvidal, Fanmio still faces other lawsuits from other fighters.<\/p>\n
Nate Diaz filed a lawsuit against Fanmio two weeks after the Masvidal case, claiming a debt of over 9 million dollars. An arbitrator ruled in favor of Diaz, awarding him 6 million dollars, plus attorney’s fees. This case is still awaiting final approval.<\/p>\n
In March, Fanmio filed a lawsuit against Golden Boy Promotions and Ryan Garcia, due to a canceled exhibition match with Rukiya Anpo, scheduled for December 31, 2024. Garcia chose to fight Rolando Romero in May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
