UFC headed back to Japan this year according to Dana White

UFC President, Dana White has today confirmed the promotion are headed back to Japan in what will be a sensational move and to cap it all off it will likely happen in the next six months.
Speaking at the UFC 132 pre-fight press conference, Dana said:

“The rumor is true. We’re going to come to Japan, and probably soon.”

Just how soon?

“This year.”

The UFC have found it notoriously difficult to break into the Japanese market over the past few years, something that was expected to be a done deal under one guise or another once they bought PRIDE and their crop of superstars. Stay tuned to MMABay to find out whether this becomes a reality or whether it’s just a pipe dream for Dana and the UFC.
