One of the major story lines heading into next weekend’s UFC 249 fight card in Jacksonville, FL is training. With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, social distancing and self-quarantine measures (as well as non-essential business closures) have put a serious crimp in the ability for fighters to stay sharp. For the rare few with home gyms, and/or those fighters who live with other fighters, they may be able to get by. But for many others, creativity is going to rule their camps if they want to compete any time soon.
In that sense, Uriah Hall may be ahead of the game.
