FAIRFAX, Va. – The Ultimate Fighting Championship’s first trip to
Virginia proved to be a smashing success, though it fell just short of
the live-gate revenue record for a UFC Fight Night event.

UFC Fight Night 20, held Monday at the Patriot Center on the
campus of George Mason University in Fairfax, was announced as a
sellout with 8,500 attendees, though the 10,000-seat arena used a
modified seating configuration.

UFC officials confirmed the attendance and a $730,000 live gate with MMAjunkie.com after the show.
