Silva vs. Sonnen 2 - Rio soccer Stadium
Dana just announced at the Presser. Silva vs. Sonnen 2 will take place in a Rio Soccer Stadium with an 80k capacity.
Source: https://twitter.com/#!/ufc - up on the UFC twitter. Apparently will be in the Maracana Stadium. Should be the best atmosphere at a Fight Event of all time in my opinion..unless your Chael.

Who knows who wins, thats why they fight the fights. If it was a foregone conclusion that Silva wins the fight then Im not wiasting my money on the PPV, but its not a sure thing.

I'll bet the live gate brings in no more than the average Vegas show. Those are going to be some cheap tickets.
If this fight does take place, then win or lose, i hope everyone on this forum can admit that chael has the biggest balls (figuratively speaking, the poor guy) in the UFC bar none.

Is that because it is in Brazil and therefore they cannot afford what the prices are normaly?

Silva is going to murder Chael in front of 80,000 screaming Brazilians, and it will be the most epic moment in UFC history! I hope the UFC hypes the **** out of this fight.

I think it would be hard to find 80k who can afford the average priced vegas ufc ticket in any city anywhere, .... but yeah even more so in South America.
