State of New York earns big money in MMA, boxing and wrestling

[Alexandoy]

I was surprised to learn that New York had legalized fights for mixed martial arts only 2 years ago and in that short period had earned $79 million already. It is a fact that mixed martial arts particularly UFC and One FC fights have a big following worldwide that it is much bigger than boxing and wrestling now because the excitement is real with the real fights in the octagon.

I have known this for a long time now as a wrestling fan, looking at the number of fans that buys tickets for each pay per view shows how much money that's being made in the sports which the government has its own shares in form of taxes and so on.
