<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>A UFC 83 event rumored to be taking place in England could instead take place in the U.S. The news comes from our friend Steve Sievert at the Houston Chronicle, who spoke to a source close to the event for his “Brawl Sports” blog. According to the source, the U.K. location has been scrapped, but the March 8 show — which will likely include Michael Bisping vs. Charles McCarthy and Houston Alexander vs. James Irvin — will go on.</div> Source: Houston Chronicle
MEH, I don't care where they fight, so long as they fight can't begin to imagine why they haven't gone back to Japan though.. seems plain silly that they let the Pride name die out like that.
I had read that Dana said doing business in Japan is way different and very complicated. They couldn't get a TV deal done and without a TV deal Pride was essentially dead as PPV isn't big, everything like K-1 and Pride are on Network TV.
