Charles Oliveira, former UFC lightweight champion, demanded that the promotion's management hold a stadium tournament in Brazil.

“I've said this before and I said it after my last fight - Brazil deserves this. Now is the time to do it. Now is the time to bring this to life. Hold a tournament in a stadium. Brazil deserves this. The Brazilian people deserve this. Place the octagon in the center, and we will do our job, namely - fill the stadium to capacity. Listen, Dana, Hunter, Sean Shelby - let's make this happen. The Brazilian people deserve it, and we will do it brilliantly,” Oliveria is quoted as saying by the Bloody Elbow portal.
