After all, this is an exceptional venue that we’re talking about here – and the potential when it comes to the production value is massive. There are lots of big names who are rumored to be appearing but for now, there’s been no official confirmation.

What we do know, though, as per Dana White himself, is that we’re only going to get a total of ten fights on the card.

White reveals Noche UFC plans

“We’re going to do 10 (fights),” White told McAfee. “There will be a main, co-main, and obviously this card will be very Mexican-heavy.”

“I’m already $17 million into this thing, and we’re not anywhere near September yet,” White said. “… I keep telling you guys: It’s gonna be the most unique, badass show you’ve ever seen in sports.”
