Fertitta Promises “Epic” Series of UFC Events if NY Legislation Goes Through

“I’ve said it before but I want to say it again to be clear. The UFC is prepared to demonstrate its commitment to our New York fans, who’ve waited longer for legal professional MMA than our fans in any of the other 49 states. We are prepared to launch the most intense and epic series of major events over the next three years that the Empire State has ever seen.”

“If New York legalizes and properly regulates MMA in 2015, the UFC will hold a minimum of four events per year for the next three years. Yes, we will hold events in New York City – our fighters and our fans have been clamoring for the Garden and the new Barclays Center – but we are also looking forward to hosting at least three events annually in Upstate cities, where we will smash local box office records and bring in fans from Canada and states throughout the Northeast.”

UFC CEO Lorenzo Fertitta promises an epic series of UFC events in New York, should the state legalize and regulate MMA in 2015.
