But now with Jake co-promoting the first-ever female main event at MSG was even more significant.

“Until today, my career highlight was selling UFC for Lorenzo Fertitta. But to think Jake and I are promoting the first-ever event at MSG where two female fighters(boxing or MMA) are headlining, that tops it all. Amanda and Katie are making history, and I am honored to work for them,” wrote Bidarian.
It is indeed a huge event and the world is extremely excited to see it. And the event taking place inside the iconic MSG stadium just adds volumes to it. For fight fans, it will be a great showdown to watch.
