Bellator Attorney: UFC 'Trade Secrets' Lawsuit Unmerited

By: Loretta Hunt

Zuffa LLC, the parent company to the Ultimate Fighting Championship and World Extreme Cagefighting, filed suit against prominent fighter agent Ken Pavia and Bellator Fighting Championships last Wednesday in Clark County District Court in Nevada.

In the complaint, which was first brought to light by Yahoo Sports on Thursday, Zuffa accuses Pavia, Bellator, and other unnamed defendants of conspiring to and misappropriating documents and information it has deemed as "trade secrets" to the rival promotion for its own personal gain in the MMA market. Zuffa's complaint seeks unspecified damages, as well as injunctive relief preventing all defendants from using said information moving forward.
