Possible Change of Event Venue: UFC President

The president of UFC, Dana White, has responded to questions regarding the potential change of venue for the lightweight championship fight between Islam Makhachev and leading contender, Armenian fighter Arman Tsarukyan.

“If the fire worsens, we will move the event to Las Vegas, but we will only do that if the situation becomes very bad. At this moment, everything is under our control. There is currently no plan to change the venue of the event,” stated Dana White.

It is worth mentioning that the Tsarukyan – Makhachev fight is scheduled to take place at UFC-311, set for January 18 in Los Angeles.
