Sammelklage gegen die UFC eingereicht

[Nefercheperur]

Die UFC hat nun die New Yorker Firma Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP angaciert um sie in dieser Klage zu vertreten. Diese Firma war zum Beispiel in der Bush vs Gore Klage vertreten, und vertrat auch die NFL in einer aehnlichen Klage.

Ausserdem gab die UFC folgendes Statement bekannt:

“We have built a popular business from modest beginnings by meeting the needs of fans and fighters. Millions of people have watched our bouts, we have instituted leading health and safety measures for our athletes, and fighters are free to negotiate contract terms.

We will stand up against the plaintiffs in this litigation every step of the way, and have engaged attorneys from Boies, Schiller & Flexner LLP with a depth of experience in antitrust issues.

We are proud of the company we have built, confident in our legal position, and intend to prevail in this lawsuit.”
