This new drink driving police test for fighters that's being enforced tonight has gotta be a knock on effect of the new insurance laws for combat sport in NYC that came into play last year surely?
A way of promoters lowering the odds of fighters getting hospitalised on their card/reducing the chances of them having to pay out $$$$$$$

In April, the New York State Assembly legalized mixed martial arts in the state following years of lobbying efforts by UFC. Part of the bill included higher insurance rates for all combat sports. They went from $10,000 to $50,000 for general medical coverage per fighter on each card. Most don't view that as overly problematic, but the bill also included a new $1 million minimum requirement for each fighter in the event one suffers a traumatic brain injury. That does happen -- Magomed Abdusalamov's high-profile case comes to mind -- but it is rare.
