The dispute between UFC and its heavyweight champion, Randy Couture, to an unfortunate turn as UFC's parent company sued Couture for breach of contract and causing UFC harm by his public statements. Interestingly, the lawsuit also "alleges conspiracy, stating that several unnamed parties to be identified at a later date worked with Couture to intentionally inflict harm on the UFC." In addition to damages, UFC is asking for an injunction to prevent Couture from fighting for any rival promotions. If successful, this may prevent Randy's team from competing in the IFL (not to mention Randy's potential fight with Fedor).
