"UFC 127: Penn vs. Fitch" in Australia equals fastest sellout in UFC history UFC president Dana White long has labeled Canada as a "mecca of a mixed martial arts," but Australia doesn't appear to be too far behind. UFC officials today announced that tickets for the promotion's return to Australia at UFC 127 sold out in just 30 minutes, equaling a record set this past June at UFC 115 in Canada. "UFC 127: Penn vs. Fitch" takes place Feb. 27 at Acer Arena in Sydney, Australia. The same venue also hosted the UFC's Australian debut, UFC 110, which took place this past February. "We're ecstatic," UFC exec Marshall Zelaznik stated in today's release. "Tickets sold out literally as quickly as the Ticketek phone lines and website would allow, and that's despite us working with our partners at Acer to add an extra 600 seats to the in-arena configuration we had at UFC 110. "We will have just over 18,000 fans in attendance at UFC 127 in nine weeks' time and expect to blow the roof off." UFC 110 also was a rousing success with an announced attendances of 17,831. Zelaznik said the rapid sales prove how popular the sport has become Down Under. |

my prediction is we will get a 2nd ufc event in aus before the end of 2011... i just have a feeling... it might not be a ppv... might just be a fight night or versus... but i get the feeling we will see the ufc back in aus twice in 2011...  plus the rumour of a tuf uk vs aus could mean a fight night or finale here... |
