While once expected to take place at an outdoor stadium and challenge the UFC’s all-time attendance record – thanks to a since-rescheduled Anderson Silva vs. Chael Sonnen title rematch – the June 23 event is officially headed indoors.

UFC executives today confirmed it’ll take place at “Mineirinho” (Estadio Jornalista Felipe Drumond) in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
