The relationship between Al Iaquinta and the Ultimate Fighting Championship seems to get worse by the day and now it might be close to breaking point after the New York native pulled out of his most recent fight with Justin Gaethje at UFC Lincoln.
Iaquinta revealed that an injury to his shoulder was the primary reason he withdrew from the fight but said his real estate business is doing well enough that he’s getting the same pay that he would if he were fighting Gaethje (via MMAFighting.com).
“Basically, in the time that I would have trained for that fight, I made as much money selling real estate,” Iaquinta said.
