Ultimate Fighting Championship chose the Air Canada Centre to make the announcement, but they chose the Rogers Centre to make their Toronto debut and it will happen April 30 2011.
UFC president Dana White made the announcement during a Tuesday morning news conference at the ACC, ending months of speculation about exactly when the world's biggest mixed martial arts promoter would host an event in Ontario.
The UFC has grown exponentially in the 10 years since White and investors Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta took over the struggling brand, using a reality TV series, relentless marketing and monthly pay-per view events to push a once-fringe sport into the mainstream.
White thinks the Toronto show will mark yet another high point in the popularity of both the sport and the UFC brand.
I have a feeling that this one will be the most memorable event of my career, White said. People have been dying for this thing in Toronto. Now were finally coming and we expect it to be massive.
