SEEMS like the UFC (ultimate fighting/mixed martial arts) is quite popular in Vegas based on reading the Las Vegas Sun online...

Anyone who is in Vegas follow the UFC much? Is it mostly popular in the newspaper because most of the events are taking place in Vegas?

Any UFC fans in the Vegas forum?

Seemed like any major sporting event taking place in Las Vegas at a major Hotel/Casino got alot of space in the Sun.

When I lived there, the first match between Ortiz and Shamrock took place at the MGM. Got plenty of local coverage. I was there for the match, what a bummer that Shamrock lost!!

The owners of the Las Vegas Sun are also part owners of the UFC empire. They do not own a majority, and I am sure how much they own.

It is popular here. Here kids can sign up for MMA lessons, and many do.

I'm a MMA fan, not a UFC clone.

Since Fedor, Carwin, and Sonnen lost in the last two months (along with Carwin's alleged steroid use), my interest took a hit.
