After over 10 years away, the
Ultimate Fighting Championship
will be heading back to the “Las
Vegas of the East.”

Per the organization on
Wednesday night, a UFC
Fight Night event on Nov. 23
is planned for the Galaxy Arena in
Macau, China. This non-pay-per-view offering will serve as the
organization’s first trip to the special administrative region in
China since UFC Fight Night 48 in 2014. While that last event was
held in the Cotai Arena, the promotion has upgraded to the Galaxy
Arena, which
serves
as Macau’s largest indoor arena sporting 16,000 seats.
No fights have been announced as of yet.

Once in 2012 and twice in 2014, the company traveled to Macau to
stage an event. Cung Le sparked
Rich
Franklin
in the inaugural Macau show, which also was the first
UFC event in China. It came back to pit Dong Hyun
Kim
against John
Hathaway
to conclude the Chinese season of “The Ultimate
Fighter,” and then the most recent card saw Michael
Bisping
dismantle Le. All three of the previous UFC Macau shows
have concluded with headliners scoring “Performance of the
Night”-worthy knockouts.
