ESPN to run classic fights on ‘UFC Day,’ full schedule

With the sporting world effectively on hold due to coronavirus concerns, ESPN is devoting an entire day to the UFC.

The promotion’s broadcasting partner announced that Saturday is “UFC Day” and ESPN is commemorating the occasion with a full schedule of classic fights starting at noon ET. Among the fights to be aired are both Conor McGregor vs. Nate Diaz encounters, Jon Jones’s first meeting with Alexander Gustafsson, and last year’s epic interim title fight between Israel Adesanya and Kelvin Gastelum.

UFC Day on ESPN begins at noon and ends at 11 p.
