Dana White is kicking himself a little bit.

When 350,000 people got online to purchase tickets for UFC 134 at the 14,000-seat HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro, it was clear the UFC had underestimated demand. Needless to say, the Brazilian event sold out in short time.

“We probably could have done a little bigger arena, but we played it safe the first time down here,” White said today.
