Mixed martial arts regulation is finally coming to Massachusetts.
Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick today signed into law a bill, versions
of which were previously approved by the House and Senate, that calls
for the Massachusetts State Boxing Commission to become the
Massachusetts State Athletic Commission and oversee MMA events.
The move opens the door for the UFC to host a long-anticipated event in Boston.
