“It has been almost two months since I fought for Karate Combat, and I still haven’t been paid,” Sordi wrote on X. “After multiple false promises of payment, the CEO of the company stopped responding altogether. I did my part. I trained, I showed up, and I fought. I’m still waiting for them to honor what they owe. This isn’t just about me. Fighters deserve respect, professionalism, and to be paid on time. Honoring contracts is not optional.”
Recently, there have been rumors that Karate Combat is struggling to keep the ship afloat. The promotion has quickly built a following online, but they also pay far more than the average regional striking show. Just about two weeks ago, the highly-anticipated Karate Combat 58 event was delayed for several hours after the pit was not built in time, lending credence to the idea that all might not be well.

It’s insane this isn’t getting more coverage, especially since KC has become one of the most popular and well known promotions over the last 2 years. It’s like nothing exists outside of UFC and to an extent PFL.
