File this under ***. I don't know much about Crocota, I don't think I remember his UFC fight. But this story is just too good not to pass long.  Good nickname, crocota.

Great.  More awesome advertisement for MMA.  No wonder NY is still holding out.

Theres **** ups in every sport especially the lower levels of it.  NYC will fall in line, i think the 55000 tickets sold for the toronto show is just too much for them to miss out.

But every other sport is already considered main stream in the US.  We still have hold outs here about MMA, even though huge strides have been made.  I hope you are right!
