Maracanazinho Gymnasium The UFC is targeting a March 21 visit to “The Marvelous City,” as Rio de Janeiro’s Maracanazinho Gymnasium has been tentatively selected as host of UFC Fight Night 63. News of the intended destination was first revealed by Hotel Urbano , a partner site of the UFC that sells tickets and travel packages to UFC events, when an ad for the event was placed on the site. The ad has since been removed. MMAjunkie subsequently confirmed with multiple sources close to the promotion that UFC officials are indeed targeting the venue for the event but that contracts have not yet been signed and that while not necessarily likely, there is a potential the show could move to another venue. The sources spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss such matters.
