UFC on Fuel TV 10: Nogueira vs. Werdum Attendance Figures
UFC on Fuel TV 10 delivered in a big way last night, showing an exciting display of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and fighting skills. The event tied the record for most finishes on a card (10) and broke the record for most submission wins with eight finishes by tap or sleep.
The official attendance figures for the evening stand at 6,286 attendance and an unreleased live gate figure. The event, which went out from the Paulo Sarasate arena in Fortaleza, marked the first time that a Brazilian UFC had been aired live on Fuel TV. It was not a PPV, it was the TUF Brasil 2 Finale and it also lacked the Anderson Silva/Vitor Belfort‘s of it’s predecessors. Everyone came out and put on a really great show last night, it really was a great card.
