One of the most promising regulatory trends in the last year are numerous state, tribal, and provincial athletic commissions sharing key information with the industry about concussion and CTE, two of the biggest occupational hazards professional fighters face. It makes perfect sense that regulators, who are in charge of health and safety issues, share this crucial information with athletes.

Recently, the Wyoming Combat Sports Commission became the latest to share posters co-created by the Association of Ringside Physicians and Fighting Foundation about these important topics.

Thank you Wyoming for your leadership!
