The UFC needs to come back to moheagan sun in ct,to hold one of their fox events,they always used to come around 03,04.They should put machida vs hendo as a main event for one of their fox cards,that will be sick.Hopefully 2013 will be a better year,this year was good but had a shitload of setbacks.the best years the UFC had,me personally was 07,and 2011.looking foward to a better year in 2013.
