Ordinarily when the UFC is overseas, in the absence of a government regulatory body, those duties are handled by Marc Ratner, former Executive Director of the Nevada State Athletic Commission and current Vice President of Regulatory Affairs with the UFC.
However, events in Brazil are now regulated by the Brazilian MMA Athletic Commission, or Comissao Atletica Brasileira de MMA (CABMMA) and at UFC Fight Night 28 which took place at Mineirinho Arena in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, every fighter on the card was suspended at least two weeks as a precaution.
