Merry Christmas sherdoggers:
I'm wondering if anyone from the UK can explain how sports (in general) or MMA is regulated in the UK? Is there broad regulation or is it left to the individual countries (i.e. England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland)? Is there any regulation by local governments?
Just curious, I know the UFC self-regulates their events when they go to the UK using the Unified Rules - I assume its because the government isn't doing it.
Also, if anyone knows of any good online sources that explain the regulatory framework, I'd appreciate them.
Thanks in advance for any helpful insight/information - cheers!
