Jorge Masvidal just scored a huge win, but not in the boxing ring. He got a big payout from a company called Fanmio. A judge in Florida said Fanmio has to give Masvidal over $5 million. This is because of a fight he had with Nate Diaz in 2024. The judge made this decision after someone called an arbitrator said Masvidal should get the money.

Masvidal and Fanmio had a deal. Masvidal was supposed to get $6 million for the fight. If he won, he would get even more. But he lost the fight and said he only got a small part of the money he was promised. Fanmio did not pay him what they agreed on. So, Masvidal took them to court. The arbitrator said Masvial was right and Fanmio had to pay him.

This is not the first time Fanmio has been in trouble. Another fighter, Nate Diaz, also sued them. He said he was owed over $9 million. The arbitrator said he should get $6 million. But that case is still not finished.

Masvidal's win is a big deal. It shows that fighters can stand up for themselves. But it also shows that companies like Fanmio might not always keep their promises. Fighters need to be careful about who they work with.
