Give me 1 market that they havn't been to yet that you would like the UFC to go to. Make a case as to why they should. Please something better than because its my home town.
For me Louisville, KY
1. Its my home town
2. 2 hrs away from indy and cincy, 3 hrs from nashville. 4 hrs from st. louis, chicago, memphis. that is a huge popluation area that could easily get there. sell out would be easy
3. The Kentucky Derby is the first saturday in may, here in Louisville we have two weeks of festivities leading up to it. Add a UFC event to all the hooplah.
4. Its a fight town. 3 former heavyweight boxing champs hail from the Derby City. Greg Page, jimmy Ellis, and some guy you might have heard of muhammad ali.
5. Bellator has been here once and got a good reception, they are coming back in late september.

Scotland.
After so many shows in England, and even Ireland getting two events, we deserve an event in Scotland. I'd event take a Fight Night or Versus event, just bring the UFC to my damn Country!!!

Doubtful as many in the US think "England" means the whole of the British isles.

I want UFC in Syracuse NY. I know NYC would be first but we have no idea how much bigger UFC can get so if the volume of shows increases so do my city's chances for a FN or better. Reasons:
1) It's my city, and the Carrier Dome and SU campus is nice. Except when Syracuse won the NCAA championship in 200-w.e., I got a bottle thrown near me, but there were many bottles, and snowballs. And a couple boobies.
2) WWE comes here all the time! Lol, I think they've even been to the Turning Stone Casino about 40 minutes from here, that would be another place UFC could go.
3) It's my city.

Smaller than Texas actually.
Texas is 5 times the size of Scotland. I think. And the UK isn't 5 Scotlands.
But in fairness it's a lot easier for Americans to travel around America to see an event than it is for British people to travel to America.
