*Updated* JoJo post on Instagram after UFN89 win “broke as hell”

On the same night that Donald Cerrone won a performance bonus and spoke out about his pay during the UFC Fight Night 89 post fight press conference  

“(The bonuses) all sound nice – according to my pay I don’t mean (expletive) to the UFC,” Cerrone told MMAjunkie at UFC Fight Night 89’s post-fight news conference. “But we’ll see. (I’m) going to talk to Dana after this and figure that out.”

Joanne Calderwood posted on Instagram mentioning that she is strapped for cash


Despite a great finish on the night JoJo didn’t receive a post fight bonus and took home according to figures released $26,500. Having only fought once since last July 26k to live, travel and pay for training camps doesn’t go far.
