(Argh!. That Free stream you watched a few months back might end up costing you a hell of a lot more than $39.95.)
Apparently Zuffa isn’t f-ing around when it comes to enforcing its copyrights.
According to a report by newteevee.com Ustream.com has complied with a request by UFC parent company Zuffa LLC to hand over the Internet protocol addresses of members who broadcasted the promotion’s events via the popular Internet streaming site.
Last week, Zuffa subpoenaed both Ustream and Justin.tv, demanding that both sites provide them with the IP addresses of individuals whom it says, quite simply, are infringing on its intellectual property rights.

An attorney for the Bellator Fighting Championships is confident a lawsuit filed against the promotion and MMA agent Ken Pavia by Zuffa LLC will prove to be little cause for concern – ultimately.
As first reported by Yahoo! Sports’ Kevin Iole on Thursday, Zuffa, parent company of the UFC and WEC, filed a suit against Bellator and Pavia, as well as unnamed co-defendants, in Clark County (Nev.) District Court claiming Pavia gave proprietary documents to Bellator on request from Bellator founder and CEO Bjorn Rebney.
The suit alleges Bellator and Pavia were conspiring to essentially steal trade secrets from Zuffa through the exchange of confidential documents in e-mails. Pavia, head of the MMA Agents representation firm, handles dozens of MMA fighters, including many under the Zuffa umbrella.
Speaking to MMA Fighting on Friday, Rebney said the promotion’s attorney, Patrick English, had instructed him to not discuss the suit publicly. And Pavia, also reached Friday, said he, too, was unable to discuss the pending litigation.
But English said he believes if the two sides come together, Zuffa’s concerns will be alleviated.

King Mo Lawal who has been helping the champion boxer turned mixed martial artist prepare for his UFC debut, admitted on his facebook page that Toney did in fact submit him in training.
“Yeah, it’s true… I got tapped by Toney in training. It’s just training… no more questions!!! Lol… Subs happen…”
Toney who is supposed to be facing UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture in his debut UFC 118, which is set for August 28, in Boston, Massachusetts, has still not signed the contract for the fight. It is hard to tell if Tony is trying delay the fight or if he is having seconds thoughts on how prepared he is to make the transition to MMA.
