‘Safest place in the world’ - Dana White says Abu Dhabi is Plan B if Nevada shuts down

Early this week, UFC president Dana White left the “safe zone” of “Fight Island” to film a show with Hall-of-Famers Matt Serra and Michael Bisping. That caught the attention of reporters, who brought it up during Tuesday’s media scrum.

“We went out and we did some fun things,” White told the media (via MMA Fighting).

“We knew we were doing that when we came. Same protocol. Everybody that we were in contact with and everybody that had anything to do with us was tested multiple times. Realistically, Abu Dhabi is the safest place in the world,” he said.
