Overview
- Miami judge Beatrice Butchko Sanchez entered a final default judgment awarding Jorge Masvidal $5,315,268.64 plus post-judgment interest.
- The judgment enforces an arbitration award Fanmio did not contest, including $4.85 million in compensatory damages along with fees and pre-judgment interest.
- Masvidal’s deal guaranteed $6 million, rising to $7 million with a win, yet he received only $1 million and a $150,000 advance after the July 6, 2024 bout in Anaheim.
- In a parallel case, an arbitrator awarded Nate Diaz $6 million from Fanmio and a $500,000 penalty against founder Solomon Engel, plus attorney fees and interest, pending judicial approval.
- Based on the awards and court filings, reporting indicates Fanmio’s liabilities tied to the event now exceed roughly $11.3 million.
