Shortly after Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed legislation that ended the ban on mixed martial arts in New York, UFC CEO Lorenzo Fertitta confirmed an event is scheduled to take place at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 12 — the 23rd anniversary of UFC 1.
Further details are awaited regarding the November event, but it's likely to feature the return of Ronda Rousey, who attended Thursday's signing.

"If Ronda Rousey fought here in November, that would be a hell of an event," Cuomo said, via the New York Daily News.
