More than 50 former UFC fighters submitted letters of support for the proposed $375 million settlement agreement in the Le vs. Zuffa antitrust class-action lawsuit.
According to online records, the letters were filed Monday by plaintiffs as part of a memorandum in support of settling. The letters come 12 days after the agreement proposal was filed Sept. 26. News of the filings was first reported by journalist John Nash.
The proposed $375 million settlement comes less than two months after U.S. District Court judge Richard Boulware denied an initial proposal of $335 million, which also included Johnson vs. Zuffa under its umbrella. The current proposal is strictly for Le vs. Zuffa.
