Record: Dana White zegt dat UFC 189 is "The Biggest Gate In U.S. History"

Dana White was te gast bij The Jum Rome Show en zei toen dat zodra bekend gemaakt werd dat Aldo uitgevallen was, en Mendes hem ging vervangen, nog meer tickets verkocht werden.

“What’s crazy is, that fight [Aldo-McGregor] gets canceled. We bring in Chad Mendes, the gate in Vegas at the MGM $6.8 million, we put in Mendes, the gate went to $7.1 M. We actually had to add bleachers in there. The event is the biggest gate we’ve ever done in the U.S.”
