UFC to make New Brunswick debut in October

The premier MMA promotion is headed to Hub City.

The UFC is set make its debut in Moncton, the largest city in New Brunswick, Canada, later this year. Officials announced the card Thursday.

The event, which takes place Oct. 27 at Moncton Events Centre, is expected to be a UFC Fight Night on FOX Sports 1 and TSN. No bouts have been announced for the card at this time.

The brand-new venue that will host the card is set to open this fall.

Dating back to 2008, Moncton will mark the 11th Canadian city the promotion has visited.
