Held this last Saturday, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, in Las Vegas, UFC 92 saw a total crowd of 14,103. The event headlined by title bouts between Frank Mir against Rodrigo Minotauro and Rashad Evans against Forrest Griffin, as well as the bout between Rampage and Wanderlei Silva, collected a total of US$ 3.47 million at the gate.
Although UFC president Dana White considered it to be a great night, other events at the same venue had brought in more and the end-of-the-year show did not meet expectations, which were to break records. The previous event, UFC 91, featuring a main event pitting Randy Couture against Brock Lesnar, drew a greater audience and revenue.
