When the UFC debuts in the Middle East this weekend, the octagon will be outdoors in the heat. The raucous, skin-baring show in the temporary arena built around it is sure to raise a few eyebrows as well. The outdoor temperature and humidity should be tolerable, although the UFC is a bit concerned about wind and sand. And to answer the questions most commonly posed to UFC officials, the venue, which is located in the United Arab Emirates, will sell alcohol, and the UFC’s Octagon Girls will be allowed to perform in their skimpy two-piece outfits.
