Bellator vet Lucas Pimenta finally has received his pay from an ill-fated event in Texas. “He almost quit MMA, and he’s back and focused and training again,” Pimenta’s manager, Wade Hampel, said. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation confirmed that Pimenta was cut a check for $14,800, which was close to the maximum he could receive when the Ultimate Warrior Fighting promotion went belly-up. “There was $200 paid to another person who didn’t receive monies owed for the event and the rest was paid to Mr. Pimenta,” wrote Susan Stanford in an email to MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com)
