"The suit alleges the UFC impairs the ability of would-be UFC competitors to attract a critical mass of top-level MMA fighters necessary to compete with the UFC at the top tier of the sport."
"We intend to prove that the UFC engaged in a predatory scheme to undermine would-be competitors to the UFC, which the suit claims had the effect of maintaining and enhancing its monopoly."
Veteran mixed martial artist Phil Davis has filed a new antitrust lawsuit against the UFC in Nevada, alleging the organization unfairly limits competition by making it difficult for other promotions to attract top talent. The lawsuit follows a substantial previous settlement involving a class action for fighters from 2010-2017. It claims both contracted and non-contracted fighters suffer under UFC's practices, leading to unfair wage distribution and a lack of competitive balance in the MMA landscape. The case highlights ongoing legal challenges UFC faces related to its business practices.
