Not too much to report today on the progress of the bill to legalize MMA in New York, but there was a press conference today up in Albany with New York State Senators and Assemblymembers who are in support of the bill to legalize MMA in New York.
Lawrence Epstein, Executive Vice-President and General Counsel of Zuffa LLC d/b/a The Ultimate Fighting Championship, participated as well.
Still no word on whether this bill will make it through the remaining committee votes in the Assembly, i.e. Ways & Means and then Rules, and get to a full floor vote, but give those in support credit for continuing to fight as we near the end of the legislative session.
I will continue to monitor.
