Good to see another lawyer on an MMA site - us attorneys have to stick together! And from NY, no less. Check out my blog if you have a free moment - MMAOP.com. It's not as focused as your blog in terms of refined subject matter, but I'll most likely put up some thoughts on the pending UFC litigation. Just a quick question about that: any reason why Bones is the first named Plaintiff? Because he's from NY? Because he's the newest, rising star? Because the UFC didn't want their organization put first on the lawsuit so it will be forever referred to as the Jones lawsuit? Things that make you go hmmmm ... enjoy the weekend of great fights!
