Ultimate Fighting Nearing "OK" in Illinois

The Illinois Legislature appears on the verge of lifting a ban on ultimate fighting, and Ultimate Fighting Championship president Dana White said Wednesday he hopes to hold a UFC card in Chicago by the end of the year.

''I'm excited,'' White said. ''We should have been in Chicago a long time ago. We're going to rock that town -- blow it out.''

For all of you UFC fans in Illinois it looks like you might have the opportunity to see a UFC card held in your home state.
