| China has had their own UFC Unleashed kind of show for a while now but MMA isn't very big there yet despite it being one of the birthplaces of martial arts (WWE is freaking huge though).
Dana's talking about going to the Venetian in Macau though. Calling Macau part of China is a huge stretch. Macau is basically a 12 square mile resort town full of casinos. A lot of things that are legal in Macau are punishable by life in prison in mainland China. Macau is self-governed and has their own currency even.
I suspect an actual Chinese Expansion (as in actual People's Republic of China) is quite a ways off. | |
