Report: Fertitta Brothers sell remaining UFC stake to WME-IMG

It looks to officially be the end of an era for the UFC.

According to a report from Forbes, brothers Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta have sold their remaining stake in the company, one year removed from WME-IMG’s acquisition of the UFC for $4 billion. This concludes a run of sixteen years for the Fertittas, who bought the promotion for a mere $2 million back in 2001.

The brothers sold their remaining equity—about 5.8% between them—last month to WME-IMG, which acquired the company in August 2016, a source with knowledge of the sale told Forbes.
