Pit wants the UFC Empty
PostSubject: Pit wants the UFC   Pit wants the UFC EmptyFri Apr 30, 2010 9:53 am

From Georges St-Pierre fighting for the welterweight title in Montreal, to Rich Franklin competing in Cincinnati, all the way to the success shown by Urijah Faber as a huge commodity in the Sacramento, Calif., area, the hometown fight is a dream for many mixed martial artists.

The latest city to start getting the attention of fighters from the UFC specifically is the Steel City of Pittsburgh, which opens a new arena later this year, The Consol Energy Center.

Greg Sirb, Executive Director of the Pennsylvania Athletic Commission
"UFC in Pittsburgh would be huge. I am sure it would sell out 15,000 plus. The Philadelphia UFC was the largest grossing event this commission ever had, people are still talking about that night."

Josh Koscheck
"I'd love to be on that card. Hopefully, I'll be the main event on that card. Pittsburgh, that's my place, I grew up there. I'm a Steeler. I'm part of the Steel Curtain."

Phil Davis
"Pennsylvania wrestling fans, I'm trying to tell you, it's not a game with them. Wrestling is not a game. You ever seen somebody get stabbed over wrestling? I have! I have! It's not a game!"

Rothlisberger vs Cyborg

Make it happen Dana. If you can steal Jake, you can steal Cyborg.

Yeah this time it will be Ben with the knot on his head claiming sexual abuse. Cyborg will walk out smiling smoking a cigar.

I hope they wait until I get back from China, but I'm from the Pittsburgh suburbs so I'd be there for sure.

People might not boo during lulls in the action because we have the Pirates and we don't even boo them Laughing
