The UFC's new CFO is currently in a legal dispute with a former UFC exec, after a friendly basketball game grew heated.
Bloody Elbow has learned that the UFC's newly appointed Chief Financial Officer, Nakisa Bidarian, is currently in a civil dispute with former UFC exec Don Gold, stemming from a pick-up basketball game that apparently turned violent.
Don Gold held the title of Executive VP of Entertainment before leaving the UFC last year. During his time with the company, which began with UFC 1 before leaving and returning in 2001, he oversaw the UFC's home video business, their move into video game licensing, helped develop the UFCFit home workout program, and organized the infamous annual Christmas party.
