Nate Diaz’s former management firm is suing the popular UFC fighter for more than $1 million, MMA Fighting confirmed Wednesday.
The Ballengee Group filed the lawsuit Tuesday in Dallas County (Texas) District Court, claiming that Diaz committed theft, breach of contract and fraud, among other charges, according to the complaint obtained by MMA Fighting. TMZ was the first to report the news.
The plaintiff claims in the complaint that Ballengee negotiated Diaz’s agreements with the UFC for his fights with Conor McGregor at UFC 196 and UFC 202 last year and never received their contracted compensation for it.
