UFC To Host Hockey Fight Tournament

The Ultimate Fighting Championship has emerged as one of the most entertaining sports organizations in recent years. Dana White has generated a competitive fighting league that has a WWE entertainment style but with actual combat. He is now attempting to take hockey fighting to the big screen.

There has been a decrease in fighting in the NHL over the past few decades. Education regarding concussions combined with a faster, less violent game has naturally eroded the quantity of fights. However, the level of excitement has not decreased when fans see players drop the gloves. Dana White and the UFC are now trying to capitalize on this entertaining style of fighting.
