About Me

Lorenzo Fertitta and his brother, Frank, made the bulk of their fortune through mixed martial arts promoter UFC. They bought UFC for $2 million in 2001; an investment group led by WME/IMG bought it for $4 billion in 2016. They sold their remaining stakes in UFC in August 2017 at a $5 billion valuation. The Fertittas took public their casino business, Red Rock Resorts, in 2016. It was founded by their father. They each pledged $7.5 million in 2016 to NYU's Stern School of Business for a scholarship for veterans.
