It’s taken nearly 13 years, but the Ultimate Fighting Championship is finally headed back to the boardwalk.
The UFC’s recent rush of event announcements continued on Thursday afternoon at the promotion revealed that it will bring a UFC Fight Night card to Jim Whelan Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J., on April 21. The event has not been numbered but projects to be UFC Fight Night 128.
Press of Atlantic City was first to report the event’s scheduling.
It will be the UFC’s first card in Atlantic City since July 2014’s UFC Fight Night 45 at the ill-fated Revel Casino Hotel, where “Cowboy” Donald Cerrone knocked out in the main event.
