Tall order. Very tall order.



Mma in Japan back in the day was like a family past time

For real -- I don't really go to live MMA events anymore unless a friend of mine is competing, but I feel as though I'd enjoy one in Japan back in the day. I love their crowd. They'd roar at big moments, and during other moments you could hear a pin drop.

Stadium capacity is just a hair over 60k so no chance it will get to Number 1.
Could get to 2.
 
Maybe if they had Max vs Volka in there instead of wasting everyone's time with that awful UFC 240 they would.

Shockwave will probably never be broken. But they could stretch that 61k with a buttload of floor seats

No one knows who Volkano is though (generally speaking) an he certainly won't be putting up big numbers against Max
 
Someday I expect we still see it broken at Wembley Stadium, they put 90k bums on seats for Anthony Joshua
 
71k for an MMA fight... that's insane. I'd love to see it in a Western arena where folks are loud and shameless.

probably run into rules like fire safety and shit before you run into actual human space constraints.

Capacity 56,347 (venue capacity) is the listing for marvel stadium so im sure it be close to ufc 193 since ufc 243 i think is sold out already
 
I remember when Dana used to talk about holding an event at Cowboys Stadium (AT&T Stadium). The maximum capacity of the stadium with standing room is 105,000.

WrestleMania 32 supposedly set the attendance record. The attendance announced was 101,763.
