That’s what Dana says…
According to mmajunkie.com, Dana White confirmed the UFC's plans to make a return to Boston in 2013.
"We'll be going back to Boston this year. We'll do Boston this year. ... I said it recently, but it'll be sooner than people think. I just can't announce it yet."
At this time, there is no date confirmed. The UFC first ran Boston for UFC 118 at Boston's TD Garden and featured a headliner and rematch between then-lightweight champion Frankie Edgar and ex-titleholder B.J. Penn as well as Randy Couture vs. James Tony. That show drew 14,168 spectators for a live gate of approximately $2.8 million.
