After more than a year and much public frustration, Sarah Kaufman and Jessica-Rose Clark revealed today that they’ve finally received payment from Battlefield FC for their March 2017 bout.

Kaufman (19-4) beat Clark (9-4) by unanimous decision in the co-headlining bout at the event, which took place in Seoul, but months of frustration followed as both fighters tried to collect their contracted purses.

Both fighters hounded the promotion behind closed doors, in interviews and on social media, but Battlefield FC officials didn’t acknowledge the situation. Apparently the company has now made things right, though, as Kaufman revealed today (via <a href="

“Here’s a #throwback to the time @missjessyjess and I fought in Korea and got PAID A YEAR AFTER! Today is the day @battlefield_f_c made right on our contracts and paid both jessy and myself. While still professionally unacceptable, I am very happy they have worked hard to make right on the situation. #betterlatethannever”

Clark weighed in on the situation, as well (via <a href="

“It only took them a year but better late than never I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️

Success!”

Despite the issues, Kaufman, who is scheduled to fight Katharina Lehner for the vacant Invicta FC bantamweight title at Invicta FC 29 in May, has said in interviews that should would consider competing under the Battlefield FC banner again. However, she said she’d need “multiple assurances,” including completion of payment, before she steps in the cage.
