The relationship between light weight To the fifth and the UFC is not good at all. After the fighter cursed the organization on social media, an employee of the organization, who preferred not to be identified, stated that the North American is prohibited from earning the US$50 bonuses given to athletes after the events. According to the employee, the punishment is the result of three episodes of bad behavior by Iaquinta. The fighter, however, denied the information, through a post on a social network.
