We are less than two weeks away from UFC 249, which Dana White has gone out of his way to preserve even in the middle of a rapidly worsening coronavirus pandemic.
While fans were hoping for Khabib Nurmagomedov to defend his lightweight title against Tony Ferguson on April 18th, the pandemic made Barclays Center in New York an impossibility, and it looks like Khabib can’t make the event because he’s locked down in Russia. We still don’t have a venue, we still don’t know who’s fighting on the card, but not to fear because Dana White says this event is still all systems go.
