As much of the US continues to ease COVID-19 restrictions, the UFC has found themselves back on the road. Over the years the world’s largest MMA promotion has built a reputation for constant travel, putting on events not just across the country, but all over the world. The pandemic stopped much of that cold, with the UFC relegated to their home Apex facility in Vegas and the ‘Fight Island’ campus in Abu Dhabi.
Starting back in April, however, the Endeavor-owned company was once again on the move, taking their UFC 261 PPV event to Jacksonville, FL. Last weekend the UFC was in Houston when Charles Oliveira bested Michael Chandler to win the vacated lightweight title.
