Every Wednesday, Administrative Editor Jordan Breen welcomes a member of the mixed martial arts media into “Press Row” on the Sherdog.com blog. This week, Breen is joined by FightOpinion.com founder Zach Arnold.

Last week, California State Athletic Commission Executive Officer George Dodd's was censured by the state's Department of Consumer Affairs. Following up on this growing political brouhaha, Breen and Arnold discuss Dodd's predicament, how it relates to his predecessor Armando Garcia's past, what the in-state squabbles are really about and how it could impact the immediate future of Californian MMA.

Breen and Arnold examine the political issue in its larger context, looking at what it means for regional promoters as well as the UFC running in “The Golden State,” as well the development of local Californian fighters trying to start their careers.

Grab your credential and get a seat in “Press Row.”
