SUNRISE, Fla. – The UFC’s return to South Florida was five years in the making. Unfortunately for area fans, it might be another five before the next visit – if not more.
UFC president Dana White, following Friday’s UFC on FX 3 card, said he was disappointed in the turnout – and that continued trouble with ticket sales in the Florida market have him perplexed.
When reminded at the post-fight news conference that it had been a while since the UFC had been to South Florida, White quickly quipped, “It’s going to be a while again.”
