The Ultimate Fighting Championship on Wednesday announced that it has sold out its Jan. 17 event at the O2 Arena in Dublin, Ireland. The UFC released a statement saying it had sold more than 6,000 tickets in the opening week of ticket sales for UFC 93, with the full inventory of more than 10,000 tickets sold out less than two weeks later.
“This is our seventh successive sell-out in the British Isles since April of 2007," said UFC UK Division President Marshall Zelaznik. "We now hold records in six of the biggest arenas in all of Europe. We have the most dedicated and passionate fans in sport and we are thrilled to be bringing some of the biggest names in the sport to the Emerald Isle early in the New Year.”
UFC 93 is slated to feature a light heavyweight main event between Rich Franklin and Dan Henderson, as well as another 205-pound feature bout pitting Mark Coleman vs. Mauricio "Shogun" Rua.
