I guess a better question would be--why didn't they just plan an event in Korea and hold off on China? MMA is still in the incubator in China whereas Korea is already well-established in the sport. And not like China's going anywhere.
Just wondering if anyone else is confused by this--yet another--strange move by the UFC.

The Sweden card worked because it was very cosmopolitan and they knew everybody would turn out for Gustafsson. But if they had signed a bunch of Danes and put Gunnar Nelson in the main event, I don't think it would have gone over.
