Bellator files lawsuit to stop UFC from obtaining legal information

Bellator MMA, one of the UFC’s rival organizations, filed a lawsuit Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California in attempt to stop the UFC from obtaining legal documents to use to its advantage. SportingNews.com first reported the news.

A class-action, antitrust lawsuit was filed against the UFC, the leading mixed martial arts organization in the world, by Cung Le, Nate Quarry and Jon Fitch, among others, in summer 2015 for monopolization.

Today, the case is still ongoing, despite the fact that the UFC requested the case to be dimissed in September 2015.
