Is this really this big in the USA? We only know the McGregor memes over here XD. I don't want to sound stupid; I just don't know. But is this just a private for-profit company, so they do what every company does to make a profit? Or is this a regulated sport association where not one company or person has full control, and any organization can join (if they qualify), like other regulated sports?

It sounds like a guy had the idea, "I'll let people fight for money" (in a sport that's not regulated by anyone than hinself), also get powerful investors on your side so that you can monopolize the market.
