Has anyone heard any news on if UFC will be coming to maryland? I wanna see a live event but I dont wanna fly to Vegas or the west coast for that matter.
Dana was on 98 Rock a few months back and he said that the UFC would be coming to Maryland. But then again, he was doing a promo on there, so......
Would be nice, but right now Washington, DC or Northern Virginia is a safer bet. Not sure if pro MMA is legal in MD, I think it is in DC, it definitely is in VA.
I know its not real close but 96 is in ohio.
There's also a UWC event in Fairfax (George Mason Univ.) on February 21, it's likely going to feature some former TUF contestants-I think Antwain Britt is headlining again. Might want to check that out in the meantime.

MMA is legal in Maryland.
John Rallo led a big push to get it legalized. Maryland legalized it earlier this year. That's why Dana came on to 98 Rock and made that comment.
Pro MMA is not leagl in DC. Amatuer MMA is but nor pro. Go figure
