Battlefield FC has failed to pay the bulk of its fighters.

-Joe Ray, Igor Svirid, Jeff Glover, and Sarah Kaufman among them

-Ticket sales were said to be at around 800,

-High profile guests Bendo and Cyborg.


The following day things got worse after Battlefield executives forced fighters to sign new contracts agreeing to have their fight purse transferred electronically within two weeks.


To make matters worse, Kolesnitchenko told The Fight Nation that Igor Svirid’s US$10,000 purse was to be used for his wedding, which has now been called off.

“Ten thousand dollars might not be a lot of money for them, but in Kazakhstan it’s a significant amount.

“Igor’s life has gone downhill. The wedding is off, his girlfriend’s parents have put a big shame on him and the love of his life is never going to be his wife.”



-Outstanding amount approx 100K.

-Supposedly they wereally going to have 7 events this year.



-“Battlefield 2 will be in court,” said one manager, legit lul'd at that.

Sucks when this kind of thing happens and the fighters get screwed over.
