Fanmio CEO responds to Nate Diaz lawsuit, says 'the truth will triumph'

Nate Diaz has a new adversary, but in the courtroom and not a ring, and he has promised “justice will prevail.”

Diaz on Monday filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Miami claiming Fanmio CEO and founder Solomon Engel went back on an agreement to pay him $10 million for his boxing match against Jorge Masvidal earlier this month.

Diaz said he was paid only $1 million, and according to the suit Engel told him he couldn’t pay the full $10 million because the fight did not meet financial expectations.
