1. Tokyo, Japan. Specifically Saitama Arena.
PRIDE!

2. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Gracie family home base.

3. Las Vegas, Nevada. MGM Grand specifically. Biggest fights are usually there.

4. Southern California. This is what originally got me thinking about this question. There are so many fighters and camps here, you would not believe.
 
1. Hard to schedule fights.

2. It's Brazil......

3. Venue is outdated, got replaced by T-Mobile arena.

4. No venues to book it possibly???

Fighters from Rio created vale tudo which became the UFC, and the city had many incredible champions.

canada , not for talent but for name recognition and fanfare
 
I agree with TS. Tokyo and Rio both have a long tradition of MMA/NHB/Vale Tudo.


It was already an established sport in Japan, Brazil and Russia before the UFC was ever born. America was late to the party. UFC was actually orchestrated by Brazilians anyway.

The first few UFCs were mostly one dimensional fighters and was promoted as something "new" and "raw" whereas fighters were already cross training and were far more advanced in other parts of the world.
 
Always feels like Vegas to me

Fuck do I miss that place

Don't become dads guys
 
Brazil... hmm yeah I heard some good things about that country, but also some bad things in regards to the hygiene standards.
