Saudi Arabia is ready to host a women's bout

Turki Al Al-Sheikh, a prominent Saudi official, has indicated a willingness to host a women's bout in Saudi Arabia as part of a UFC event.

"Dana, I'm in shock. I knew the UFC had a lot of fans. But there are 12,000 spectators in the arena, even though it's nighttime. So we want to get 30,000 for the next tournament. We'll be looking forward to it. Plus we want to see a women's fight," - quotes the official Bloody Elbow.

Recall, June 22 in Saudi Arabia held the debut tournament UFC - UFC On ABC 6. In the main fight of the evening Robert Whittaker already in the first round knocked out Ikram Aliskerov.
