UFC set to fight with Fighters Uncaged

A fight is brewing in a fighting game, only this time, it involves real lawsuits in real life. UFC's not all too happy with Fighters Uncaged, but over what?


 

The UFC is suing Fighters Uncaged because the catchphrase for the game scrawled on the boxart supposedly resembles the group's ID.  The catchphrase is: "Become the Ultimate Fighting Weapon". UFC stands for "Ultimate Fighting Championship".


 

Their beef with this is that Fighters Uncaged is not officially licensed by UFC, but given the use of the first two words, this might lead UFC fans and game consumers alike to believe that it is so.



This probability does not sit too well with UFC. After all, they're not profiting from the game anyway. It's still unknown how much damages they're asking for, but it's fairly easy to see that it will be nothing less than seven digits.
