If it's true , this is hilarious.


And MMA in New York is not even close to be a huge announcement.

What? Why would they vote it down? I am really curious now that I know the guy who introduced the proposal voted against it

Didn't he say it was already signed? This still might not be it.

So much for your HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!!! LOL! I tried to warn you guys it wasn't going to be anything big.

Five Ounces of Pain | 5 Oz. Exclusive: UFC’s huge announcement revealed; plans for New York regulation delayed

You seem genuinely happy that MMA was dealt a set back in the US.

Do you hate all MMA, or are you just a run of the mill UFC hater?

Yeah, I just saw this. Wonder why the committee had a change of heart and decided to vote on it again next week. Hopefully they pass it. It would be huge for the sport.

On inside mma the one with Jared shaw & Kimbo as guest, shaw was talking about doing shows in NY at the Garden in the future.
then inside mma showed along segment interviewing state officials & other politicians that were for mma in NY & basically they said it would be at least 2yrs b4 NY was sactioned. I know I am not suppose to believe every think I read or hear but that what inside MMA was claiming.

Hmm yeah but I guess if this was the announcement he assumed that it would have been passed.

it isn't NY regulation. That isn't UFC news to give. Dana couldn't keep that quiet until Tuesday.
