UFC in the Windy City: A Tale of Two Thumps
So, you wanna know when the last time the UFC threw down in Chicago was, huh? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because we're about to dive into the murky waters of MMA history.
The Golden Age of Chicago UFC
Let's get one thing straight: Chicago is a FIGHT CITY. We're talking deep-dish pizza, towering skyscrapers, and a love for seeing people punch each other in the face. So, it’s no surprise the UFC has graced our fair city with their presence on multiple occasions.
But when was the last time? Ah, that's where things get a little hazy. It's like trying to remember what you ate for breakfast three Tuesdays ago. But fear not, intrepid MMA fan, I've done the dirty work for you.
The Last Stand
The last time the UFC made Chicago its battleground was on June 8, 2019. That's right, folks, it's been a hot minute since we've had the Octagon in our midst. The event was UFC 238, and if you weren't there, you seriously missed out. We had Cejudo vs. Moraes, Shevchenko vs. Eye, and a whole lotta other bone-crunching action.
Where's the Beef? (Or, Lack Thereof)
Now, you might be wondering, "Hey, smart guy, why hasn't the UFC been back?" Well, that's a great question. Maybe they're scared of our deep-dish pizza? Or perhaps they're intimidated by our love for the Bears? Who knows! All we can do is hope and pray for a return to the Windy City soon.
