Interesting find and it would sort of make sense logistically since they're in Rio the week before for UFC 224.

There will be a UFC in Chile?

I honestly think Peru should be the next spot if they're going to explore South America.

For sure. Peru has better talent than Chile and arguably Argentina making them #2 in South America behind Brazil.

Yeah, not too many fighters in Chile.

No doubt in terms of pure talent Peru is stronger than Chile or Argentina (which I'm pretty sure I read they are looking at booking a 2018 event in too). But obviously there are other factors in holding events; logistics, arenas, altitude, visas, taxes, distribution deals etc. 1 for 1 on fights I care about in Chile though, Botelho and Kondo is a great fight.
