For the 5th time in 2013 (second time in 32 days) , the Ufc is returning to Brazil for Ufc on FS1 #2.
"The UFC has reportedly made plans for yet another card in Brazil, this time in Brasilia, the nation's capital. Brazilian magazine Tatame originally reported the story, although it's not yet been confirmed. It should be noted that in a recent interview with our own Steph Daniels, UFC commentator Jon Anik made reference to this rumored event with the date included.
There are two separate reasons of importance for the Wednesday, September 4th date:
1.) It is on Independence Day week in Brazil. The national holiday is celebrated on September 7th, so the timing and location of this show is likely related to this.
2.) The Ultimate Fighter 18 premieres on the same night. During the Spike TV era, the UFC would frequently hold live events on the channel to serve as a lead-in to the latest season of TUF. The last time they did this was season 12, but with the UFC designating Wednesday as their flagship day for FS1 content, it looks like they'll be returning to the old format of a live fight card before a TUF premiere.
This would be the UFC's 5th event in Brazil this year and 9th overall since their return to the country in August 2011. It also comes 4 days after UFC 164 in Milwaukee."

Ufc on FS1 #3 returns to Manchestor, the 2nd show in jolly ol' England in 2013, maybe Bisping will headline against Okami, Le or Costa..
"It has been revealed today that the Ultimate Fighting Championship will be returning to Manchester’s M.E.N. Arena on October 26th, 2013 as they expand the number of events in the UK from one to two this year.
The news was confirmed by MMABay.co.uk who spoke to a source close to the situation earlier today. Various other UK publications had previously reported and hinted at the possibility including Fighters Only Magazine.
The last time the Las Vegas based promotion was in Manchester was way back in November 2009 and saw Randy Couture take on Brandon Vera in the main event of the evening, while Dan Hardy secured a title shot with a win over Mike Swick. Stay tuned to MMABay for more news on this situation as we get it."
