UFC will have a press conference at MSG Thursday afternoon along with MSG officials to get the ball rolling. I really don't expect it to be legalized anytime soon because Sheldon Silver is against it and even though we have a new Governor, Silver is set in his ways.

UFC just announced a press conference for 2 p.m. on Thursday in Madison Square Garden. Before getting too far ahead of things, this will not be the announcement of a first show in the venue as there are a number of legal hurdles to clear first.
Dana White, Lorenzo Fertitta, Frankie Edgar and Rashad Evans will be appearing along with Scott O'Neill, president of Madison Square Garden Sports, to make an announcement that UFC will come to MSG as soon as the sport of MMA is legalized in the state.
They will also unveil an economy study to talk about how much economic impact on the area such a show would bring when it comes to things like tourist revenue.
