According to UFC co-owner and CEO Lorenzo Fertitta, the Ultimate Fighting Championship promotion is looking at the month of April for it’s first ever Toronto event, and it’s looking to smash all MMA attendance records.
Fertitta spoke about the promotions plans during a Q&A session at the London UK UFC Fan Expo.
“We’re looking at I think sometime in late April,” Fertitta said of the company’s plans for a show in Toronto. “We’ll be in Toronto.”
“It looks like we’re going to try and do the Rogers Centre,” Fertitta said. “We looked at [the Air Canada Centre], too, but we want to break the record for attendance to MMA.
“We’ll try to get about 40,000 to 50,000 people there.”
