Hardly a day goes by that UFC president Dana White isn’t asked about his
promotion’s progress on helping the sport of mixed martial arts gain
regulation in the state of New York.
One of the few remaining North American outposts that doesn’t regulate
MMA, New York has appeared close on several occasions to reversing its
position on the sport, but ultimately, the legislature has yet to act.
Much of the opposition has been led by New York Assemblyman Bob Reilly, and he doesn’t appear to be softening his stance.
