Dana White reveals first look at ‘Fight Island’ ahead of debut at UFC 251

Two weeks away from the UFC officially setting up shop there for four cards in July, the UFC president revealed a first look at the construction taking place on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.

The photo from White’s Instagram shows an octagon built on the beach, which will serve as a training facility for the fighters traveling over there next month.

The actual fights will take place in an arena being built for the events on “Fight Island” but White has said numerous times that the athletes will be able to train on the beach.
