#3 UFC All Set To Put A Show In Hawaii
A week ago it was reported that the UFC will put on its first show in the province of Kansas in March, and when that demonstrate happens, it implies the advancement will have put on shows in 39 of the 50 US states. Now the majority of the significant states have been ticked off the rundown – aside from one, Hawaii.
Notwithstanding various incredible UFC warriors being created by the Aloha state throughout the years – BJ Penn, Travis Browne, Brad Tavares and KJ Noons for example – the advancement has still never visited the archipelago. In any case, we can foresee that 2019 is the year that this will at long last change, and we can figure two reasons will get it going.

Right off the bat, the UFC has another Hawaiian genius as present Featherweight champion Max Holloway. ‘Blessed’ as of late protected his title by decimating Brian Ortega, and he is well on his approach to turning into a veritable hotshot.
He’s not exactly on the dimension of BJ Penn right now, however he’s more predictable than ‘The Prodigy’ at any point was and we believe that is the reason the UFC would love to assemble a show around him in his home state.

Also, in spite of the presence of littler Hawaiian advancements like Icon Sport and Rumble on the Rock, it was never a given that a UFC show would do that well in Hawaii. In any case, the achievement of adversary advancement Bellator – who put on a generally welcomed show in Honolulu in December, featured by a Hawaiian star in Ilima-Lei Macfarlane who has a lower profile than Holloway.
We cannot envision a circumstance where the UFC would permit Bellator to set up a hotbed in Hawaii without needing to muscle in on them, so we can presume the advancement will report their first show in the state – likely in Honolulu – to be featured by Holloway eventually in 2019.
