Dr. Hal Singerās expert testimony has been cited as key evidence in support of certifying a class of MMA fighters in the well-known monopsony case against Zuffa, doing business as the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). The newly certified class alleges that Zuffa engaged in unfair anticompetitive behavior in the MMA market from 2010-2017. Dr. Singerās work included a multivariate regression analysis of input foreclosure from exclusionary contracts that was used as evidence that Zuffa had unlawfully suppressed fighter wages.Ā The court concluded in its class certification order that āDr. Singerās reports and testimony are reliable sources of proof as to antitrust impactā[1] and that ā[t]he Court finds that Plaintiffsā expert Dr. Singer has presented a sound and reliable model that satisfies Plaintiffsā burden for class certification for the Bout Class.ā
