UFC 249 will take place on 18th April. The main event will see Tony Ferguson fight Justin Gaethje for the Interim Lightweight Championship. The card also features a match between Jessica Andrade and Rose Namajunas.
Dana White has said he will hold fights every week at the secret UFC location. He also hinted at only United States-based fighters competing, as it will be easy for them to travel domestically. He will need to transport more fighters to the undisclosed location if he is to succeed in his aim to hold weekly fights and get normalcy back into the country.
Will White and Maynard consider PVZ’s tweet?
