Brazil largest TV network will broadcast live UFC events

[from UFC page in Portuguese:  http://br.ufc.com/news/Transmissao-do-UFC-na-Rede-globo?nd=4]

I know everyone is very busy in other threads discussing BE's staff changes, but this is worth a couple of minutes of your time.

Rede Globo, Brazil's largest network, will broadcast live UFC events starting with Cain x JDS. Deal also includes exclusively broadcasting locally all events held in Brazil and 3 other events held in other countries.

Globo will also air the first The Ultimate Fighter - Brazil.

This is very big news! Globo has at least 5 times larger ratings than 'RedeTv!', the network that aired UFC134 and that was a big hit already. I hope they go full steam ahead with promoting all of these, they have the potential to reach out to a very large chunk of the Brazilian population and to make it one of the largest markets for the UFC outside North America.

Cheers,

Gabriel
