Further confirmation that UFC 114: "Rampage vs. Evans" is primed to do big business for Zuffa, the event, set to go down tomorrow night (May 29) from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, tickets have officially sold out.
At the UFC 114 pre-fight press conference, Dana White stated that never before has there been so many ticket requests for a UFC event and that the hype and buzz surrounding UFC 114 was similar that of UFC 100 last July.
While UFC 114 is unlikely to approach the type of staggering numbers that UFC 100 did in terms of pay-per-view buys, with all the media work Dana and company have put in over the last week on ESPN, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, The Dan Patrick Show, etc., coupled with the release of the uber popular UFC Undisputed 2010 video game, this event certainly has the chance to reset the bar in terms of PPV business for 2010.
UFC 114 will run in conjunction with this year's Fan Expo at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center, which is currently taking place, and will feature a 205-pound grudge match between former light heavyweight champions and Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 10 coaches "Sugar" Rashad Evans and Quinton "Rampage" Jackson.
