NAC meeting with WSOF's Abdel-Aziz over 'operational and administrative concerns'

A lot of MMA regulation seems to be murky business. It's a sport filled with far more guidelines than actual hard and fast rules and governed by a more or less entirely un-knit network of athletic commissions and regulatory bodies.
