    Jesus! Sonnen will need one hell of a security team to stop that many Brazilians rushing him during his entrance!

    They'll need 20 screens around the place. The atmosphere will be unreal. Boxing shows have good atmosphere but trying to watch the ring is ****ing awful. Boxing kills it with production, never enough screens. Practically given up on going to boxing fights now because I actually want to SEE A FIGHT!

    It's not 80,000 capacity, more like 55,000-60,000.

    I was going to make a post about TUF Brazil. It's available free on UFC.com for everybody outside of Brazil. I saw the first episode, and the fights were much better than TUF live IMO.

    Not particularly excited about the fight in a vacuum. Meaning that the fight by itself in an empty room wouldn't do much for me. But the atmosphere for that, and Wand vs Vitor (scared for Wand) will be out of this ****ing WORLD.

    Exactly. The context makes the fight. Going to go over for this, come what may.
