What a way to kick off your first post.
There is an inside source in the web-site realgm.com (60th biggest forum on the net) and it's under the "UFC/MMA" thread on the Off-topic Canada board. The poster is an inside source, a moderator on the forum and has been posting for around 6 years.
The announcement has been post-poned until next week now because there was a vote a few nights ago and it was the majority against this "big decision" It should go through once they get to the tables again, then it will be announced.
They had SUPPOSEDLY passed the bill to
regulate fighting in New York and it was going to be announced today. But now, it's come out that the deal isn't actually finalized as the votes weren't in agreement...so the announcement will now be made next Tuesday.
Also... a day after reading "MMP"s post I came across this:
Dana White's Huge Announcement Revealed as the Legalization of MMA In New York
I guess it’s pretty big news, but kind of disappointed really.
