UFC eyes Germany, Australia
Posted: Friday May 16, 2008 07:52AM ET
The Ultimate Fighting Championship over the past year has made a significant move into the U.K. The promotion followed that up with a successful debut last month in Montreal where UFC 83 raked in a $5.2 million live gate. It's no surprise then that with all the success the promotion has had in expanding not only into new states across the U.S., but also in moving into the U.K. and Canada, the UFC will soon be setting up the Octagon in even more countries around the world. Next on the list is Germany. "We're focused on Germany, the Philippines, and Australia next," UFC president Dana White stated.
