UFC SUING THE AXE MURDERER

By David Tees on 7/30/2015 9:34 AM

The Ultimate Fighting Championships (UFC) is taking Wanderlei “The Axe Murderer” Silva to court as they are suing the now retired competitor for defaming the promotion and disparaging their business. The two sides have been at odds for a long time now, with Silva recently making allegations during interviews that the UFC fixes fights. Zuffa Inc., the parent company of the UFC, is looking for an excess of $10,000 for damages from the former fighter. Silva, who currently lives in Brazil, has twenty days to respond to the suit before more possible legal action is taken.
