Bringing you the weird and wild from the world of MMA each and every weeknight!

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Dana White remains fairly secretive about the upcoming Noche UFC event from inside The Sphere in Las Vegas, Nevada, but at least fights now know how many fights will be taking place.

While speaking on the “The Pat McAfee Show,” White revealed that Noche UFC will have a total of 10 bouts. Obviously that could change with potential injuries or dreaded weight misses, but as of now White is expecting to run a lean and mean card for UFC’s pricey one-and-done inside of The Sphere. One that will feature a Mexican-heavy lineup.

“We’re going to do 10 (fights),” said White. “There will be a main, co-main, and obviously this card will be very Mexican-heavy.”

As for the cost of UFC’s innovative trek into the next stage of live combat sports, White claims to have already spent $17 million on the upcoming event. Considering there’s still two months before Noche UFC actually sets sail, White and company are expected to spend even more.

“I’m already $17 million into this thing, and we’re not anywhere near September yet,” said White. “… I keep telling you guys: It’s gonna be the most unique, badass show you’ve ever seen in sports.”
