UFC ban vuvuzelas from UFC 116

UFC President Dana White has confirmed that they have decided to ban vuvuzelas at the MGM Gran Garden Arena in Las Vegas this Saturday.

The vuvuzelas has been made famous by South African fans at this year’s football World Cup.

“This decision was pretty simple for me,” White is quoted as saying in a press release sent out by the UFC today.

“Vuvuzelas make the most horrific sound I’ve ever heard. I’d rather let Brock [Lesnar] punch me in the face than hear 15,000 people blow on those things.

“This is the biggest heavyweight fight we’ve ever done. We’ll make enough noise this weekend when Brock and Shane [Carwin] finally step inside the Octagon.”
