UFC 239 live blog: Some of the world’s top fighters featured on main card

No matter what event was on the schedule, masses of fans flocked there.

Any concern that this year’s International Fight Week would prove less attended than ones in the past was dropped days ago. UFC 239 doesn’t include the mega matchups or the accompanying Fan Expo of past Fourth of July weekend pay-per-view fight cards.

But that doesn’t appear to matter. Las Vegas is as packed as ever with fight fans, which is making for a lively environment at T-Mobile Arena heading into the main event.

While the event might lack a historic-type fight, UFC 239 certainly isn’t missing great fighters.
