According to Dave Meltzer from WrestlingObserver.com UFC 72 will be in Belfast, Ireland on June 16th. Best of all, it is rumored to be shown for free on Spike TV on tape delay in a similar fashion to UFC 70 later this month. Here’s the quote:
Sherdog is reporting that there will be a UFC show on 6/16 in Ireland (I had heard a June show in Belfast for a while, but never a confirmed date) with Martin Kampmann vs. Rich Franklin as a main event. They also said Forrest Griffin vs. Hector Ramirez was in the process of being put together. This show would most likely air on Spike as a three-hour special, unless the HBO deal closes in time.
