UFC 112: Invincible was a mixed martial arts event held on April 10, 2010, on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The event was the first held in the Middle East following the purchase of a 10 percent stake in the UFC parent company Zuffa by Abu Dhabi government owned Flash Entertainment. It was also the first UFC event to be held outdoors in an open-air arena. Vitor Belfort was expected to fight Anderson Silva for the Middleweight Championship; however, Belfort injured his shoulder during training and was unable to fight at the event.[5] It was thought that Silva would instead take on Chael Sonnen, but he was ruled out due to a large cut suffered at UFC 109 in his fight with Nate Marquardt. Silva ended up fighting Demian Maia. A bout between Paul Taylor and John Gunderson was cancelled on the day of the fight because of health issues that Taylor faced after cutting weight.
