Massachusetts inches closer to MMA regulation, UFC at Fenway Park nearing?

In a move that could soon bring the Ultimate Fighting Championship to Boston, Massachusetts state representatives passed a bill earlier this week that calls for the regulation of mixed martial arts.

The bill calls for the Massachusetts State Boxing Commission to expand to a general athletic commission and oversee MMA events.

The bill passed by an overwhelming 144-10 vote and simply awaits a signature from Governor Deval Patrick to go into effect.
