Wow, judge really fast tracking things. Will be a jury trial next spring if the court doesn't take up the UFCs appeal.
Jury trial is the last thing the UFC wanted for this suit. It'll definitely shake things up and could force big changes to the entire industry.
Cliffnotes? Is this the case that Cung Lee started? I'm getting confused with what the UFC is facing exactly
We talking more pay for fighters finally?
In December 2014, a group of current and former MMA fighters filed a Class Action lawsuit against the Ultimate Fighting Championship (the “UFC”), and its parent company Zuffa, LLC. The Class Representatives for this lawsuit include Cung Le, Nathan Quarry, Jon Fitch, Brandon Vera, Luis Javier Vazquez, and Kyle Kingsbury. The Class Representatives claim that the UFC used improper strategies to dominate the market for MMA fighter services, allowing it to pay its MMA fighters less than half as much as they otherwise would have received. The fighters also claim that the UFC violated the antitrust laws to the detriment of all MMA fighters. These Class Representatives filed the lawsuit not only for themselves but also seek to represent about 1,200 other current and former UFC fighters. One of their goals is to recover money for all 1,200 fighters. Another goal is to force the UFC to change the way it does business
Yeah the Cung Lee case. Basically the judge looked over the case and pointed out that the UFC is truly a monopoly and that they hold and maintain sole power not by their "great promotion skills (UFC stated this)" but because of dirty practices and unfair contracts.Cliffnotes?

I actually agree he should probably move up anyway and just try to change your bodyAt this point I think Aljo is at minimum 2 fights away from another BW shot especially with Suga as champ. I'd like to see him test the waters at FW against a Holloway, Ortega, etc. One big win could put him into a ts.
