UFC CEO Dana White insists that he has nothing to do with the impending antitrust lawsuit the promotion is currently facing.
In December 2014, a group of current and former MMA fighters, including Cung Le, Nathan Quarry, Jon Fitch, and Brandon Vera, filed a Class Action lawsuit against the Ultimate Fighting Championship and its parent company Zuffa, LLC. The claim is that the UFC used improper strategies to dominate the market, allowing it to pay its fighters significantly less than what they would have otherwise earned. The fighters also claim that the UFC violated the antitrust laws to the detriment of all mixed martial artists.
