The UFC is getting closer and closer to setting the absolute record for attendance ever achieved by an organization event. According to information from the Australian newspaper “Herald Sun”, UFC 193, which will be held in a football stadium in Melbourne, is expected to have a full house, as all 70 tickets are expected to be sold quickly.

Tickets went on sale this Monday (28), and demand was huge. All the most prestigious seats in the stadium, priced at US$468, were sold out within minutes.

According to the “Herald Sun”, the visit of Ronda Rousey to the country last week helped increase public demand for the event, which resulted in greater ticket sales.

UFC 193, headlined by Rousey against Holly holm for the women's bantamweight belt, will be held on November 15th, early morning of the 14th in Brazil. In addition, you will also be in the attraction Joanna Jedrzejczyk against Valerie Letourneau, for the strawweight belt, and Mark Hunt before Antonio Pezão.

The UFC's record attendance was in 2011, when 55 people packed the Rogers Center in Toronto, Canada, to watch Georges St Pierre defeat Jake Shields.
