UFC 217 Main Event May Lack a ‘Rush’, But Stacked Card Will Steal the Show

We are less than a week away from what is set to be another big UFC Pay-Per-View card: UFC 217. It will be a very special card for the promotion; the second UFC event ever at one of the World’s most famous sports’ venues: Madison Square Garden. The Garden has hosted many sports and non-sports events before, from Professional Wrestling events to Hockey games, Boxing matches, concerts and everything in between. However, for the young sport of MMA, this is only the third major event to take place at the Garden. The first was UFC 205 less than a year ago -quickly followed by Bellator 180- after the state of New York lifted its ban on MMA.
