Backstage, Madison Square Garden, New York City,

before the fights on the 30th anniversary of UFC

with the man who runs at Dana White.

Happy anniversary?

Thank you.

30 years?

30 years tonight.

How many years in New York?

So we've been in New York, funny, saying that, six years ago, 2016, seven years ago, we just got sanctioned in

New York.

We couldn't get into New York for a long time and it had nothing to do with the UFC was about the culinary union if you can believe that I can believe it

Yeah, the Fertitas were my partners in and this back then and the culinary union from Las Vegas was keeping us out of New York

remember that criminal Sheldon Silver? Very well.

Shelly Silver, Sheldon. Yeah, yeah. He was blocking us from coming to New York and

apparently I was the only guy in the world

that knew this guy was a crook and a criminal.

Nobody here knew but they ended up finding out.

Anyway, we get into New York and tonight as we sit here tonight we're going to do a 12.2

million dollar gate we are number one number two and number three all time at

Madison Square Garden in just seven years.

That's unbelievable.

It's awesome.
