Hi everyone,
Thanks to everyone who came out or watched me win the light heavyweight championship at UFC 128 in Newark! It was truly an honor and NY MMA fans are always incredible.
But as great as New Jersey was to visit, I wish I could compete in front of my friends and family in my home state of New York! Fighting in MSG would be a dream – it would be a feeling of making it. That’s why I need your help.
The New York State Senate has already passed the bill sanctioning MMA and the NYS Assembly passed it through the Tourism, Parks, Arts and Sports Development Committee, so we’re halfway there. I’ve been to Albany myself to talk to legislators, but I know that’s not enough. Elected officials need to know that their constituents want this bill passed. That’s where you come in.
Please call your Assemblyman or Assemblywoman by clicking here, and ask your friends to do the same.
If we can help push the bill through the Assembly, we’ll finally be able to watch fights in Madison Square Garden, my hometown of Rochester, and across this great state!
With only five days left before session ends, your calls are more important than ever. It only take a minute, we can do this!
Sincerely,
Jon
