Dana White, UFC sued by convicted extortionist in sex tape case

On April 3rd, Dana White and the UFC were named in a Clark County District Court of Nevada lawsuit that has roots in a notorious 2015 blackmail case involving a then-unnamed Las Vegas “businessman.”

That businessman has now allegedly been identified as UFC president Dana White.

Back in 2015, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported on an extortion scheme that had been investigated by the FBI and resulted in the suspect, Ernesto Joshua Ramos, entering into a plea bargain.

According to the prosecutors, Ramos had obtained a video recording of his live-in-girlfriend having sex with the unnamed businessman, whom she had met while working as a dancer at a Las Vegas strip club.
