How many people watched UFC101 at the Wachovia Center?
Saturday night marked the next chapter in this time-honored tradition, when the Wachovia Center played host to UFC 101 — a mere six months after Pennsylvania became the 37th of the 44 states with athletic commissions to legalize mixed-martial-arts events. A sellout crowd of nearly 18,000 fans packed the home of the 76ers and Flyers to see B.J. Penn defend his lightweight belt against Kenny Florian and middleweight champion Anderson Silva build on his legend with a first-round knockout of Forrest Griffin at light heavyweight.
