“It makes sense that we’ll do a stadium show,” White said after Silva knocked out Vitor Belfort at UFC 126. “It totally makes sense. and you know, if there was ever a fight where we were going to do Dallas’ [Cowboys] Stadium, this would be the fight.”
Cowboys Stadium is the home of Sunday’s Super Bowl, but White has met with its executives in the past about possibly holding an event there. He got his first taste of the showcase stadium when he attended a Manny Pacquiao fight, and became convinced that a UFC show would make sense there.
“When I saw that stadium I said, ‘we can definitely do this,'” White said. “It’s a great atmosphere for a fight.”
