Rain or Sandstorm, UFC 112 is Happening (P.S. there isn't a Plan B)

(Is it just me or are these two events polar opposites? Maybe they should be in a J-Lo romantic comedy...)
UFC 112 will mark the first time that Zuffa will hold an event outside and Dana White wants you to know that the weather won't be a problem but if it is, there isn't a back-up plan...
"If it starts raining and the wind starts blowing ... right now there's no Plan B."
"The high possibility of rain happening... it's not gonna happen," White said. "It's not gonna rain there; we know it's not gonna happen. It would have to be crazy for it to rain in Abu Dhabi."
"Wind could be a factor. It's very dusty and sandy there. I'm worried about the wind."
Nothing like fighting in the rain. Well, unless it is fighting in a haboob (yes, this is a real word).
Speaking of the arena at UFC 112, tickets are going fast and Flash Entertainment has released additional tickets due to the "overwhelming demand". Of course, judging by the latest stadium photograph (seen below) the stadium doesn't exactly appear to be a 20,000 or even 15,000+ venue. Still, it is going to be very interesting to see what kind of crowd is in attendance this Saturday.
