UFC auction for Australia flood victims

As the UFC heads to Australia for the record-breaking UFC 127: PENN v FITCH event, the organization wants to give back to Australia by helping raise money for the Premier’s Disaster Relief Appeal.

The Appeal has been set up by the Queensland government to assist those who have lost so much in the recent flooding and cyclone disasters. Over the end of 2010 and the start of 2011, Australia saw some of the worst flooding in its history. 35 people have been confirmed dead and over US$30 billion damage was done.

The UFC and its fighters are donating unique UFC 127 memorabilia including the actual octagon canvas from the show, plus the Ultimate Aussie UFC 127 experience. The items are avalable BY AUCTION with live bidding now.

The UFC encourages fans to give whatever they can to the PDRA at http://www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html.
