Dana White sued for allegedly breaking hush money deal in extortion case

A man at the center of a 2015 extortion case against the “part-owner of a well-known business” has named UFC President Dana White as the central figure and alleges he was wronged by the promoter in a new lawsuit.

The suit, filed this past Friday on behalf of Ernesto Joshua Ramos in Clark County (Nev.) District Court, alleges White and UFC attorneys broke a contract to compensate Ramos for signing a non-disclosure agreement that shielded the promoter and the UFC from potential financial losses and embarrassment months before the company was sold for over $4 billion.
