UFC possibly headed to Philadelphia

Phillycheesesteak_medium

Less than two weeks after Pennsylvania passed new rules governing mixed martial arts, the UFC appears headed to Philadelphia.

Dana White said this in a recent interview,

“I’m not saying no to Pittsburgh, but we’re going to Philly this year,” said White.”It’s a big fight town, always has been.”

“When you talk about Las Vegas, you talk about New York, Philadelphia is one of them too,” White said. The Blue Horizon, I saw some of the best boxing ever from the Blue Horizon in Philly. It’s a big fight town.”

I don’t think we’ll see UFC in Pittsburgh until the Consol Energy Center is finished. Personally, I’d love to see the UFC be the first event in that arena.
