UFC: Welcome to Ontario!

Late news today reports that Ontario is now set to sanction legalized MMA matches, beginning in 2011.  The UFC has been pushing for several years now to get MMA legalized in Ontario, seeing that Toronto alone could be a huge venue and draw bigger crowds than many locations.  Up to now, the government in Ontario has put regulating MMA on the back burner, saying that safety and regulation issues would need to be worked out first.  As always, money talks and they have quickly pushed through the laws needed, realizing how far 6 million in taxes could go.  Look for an announcement by the UFC, as soon as they can get the details worked out, for GSP to be headlining a UFC event in Toronto!
