SINGAPORE – The official media schedule for UFC Fight Night 111 actually kicks off on Thursday, but fighters were busy going through their pre-fight routines today as the MMAjunkie team visited the host hotel. The iconic Marina Bay Sands is serving as home base for UFC operations this week, with Saturday’s UFC Fight Pass-streamed card taking place at the nearby Singapore Indoor Stadium. Former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm (10-3 MMA, 3-3 UFC) meets onetime title challenger Bethe Correia (10-2-1 MMA, 4-2-1 UFC) in the evening’s main event. MMAjunkie’s own John Morgan ( @MMAjunkieJohn ) and Ken Hathaway ( @kenshathaway ) are on scene for the event, and they had a chance to speak with a few of the card’s featured participants ahead of official media activities. Take in the latest sights from Singapore as fighters continued the final prep for this weekend’s event – including photo shoots, video interviews, uniform fittings and more – in the bustling metropolis that sees the UFC octagon visit for just the second time.

SINGAPORE – While the UFC’s marketshare in Asia has been questioned, the company recently released findings from a third-party study that concluded the world’s leading MMA promotion is also “the leading provider of MMA TV content across Asia.” Commissioned by the UFC, research firm Futures Sport + Entertainment looked at several of the biggest commerical markets in Asia, including China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea and Thailand, as well as the host of this week’s UFC Fight Night 111 event, Singapore. “The appeal of UFC’s content is such that the number of hours watched far exceeds that of regional MMA promotions,” Futures Sport + Entertainment Head of U.K. Steven Adamson stated.
