Tickets for the UFC’s first FOX Sports 1 card in Brazil, which features a light heavyweight main event between Ryan Bader (15-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) and Glover Teixeira (21-2 MMA, 4-0 UFC), go on sale Friday. UFC Fight Night 28 (formerly UFC on FOX Sports 1 3) takes place Sept. 4 at Estadio Jornalista Felipe Drumond in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. It will be the UFC’s second visit to the city after first visiting for UFC 147 in 2012. UFC officials recently announced ticket prices for the event will be available starting at 10 a.m. in Belo Horizonte through ticketsforfun.com.br , and will range in price from $75 Brazilian Real ($34 US) to $450 Real ($202 US). In the main event, Brazilian fan favorite Teixeira looks to stay perfect in the UFC and run his win streak to 20 when he meets Bader, who got back in the win column in January with a 50-second stoppage of Vladimir Matyushenko . “It’s a dream to make a major fight in the UFC,” Teixeira stated, “(especially) in the state where I was born.
