After days of publicly downplaying the risks of holding UFC events in the face of the coronavirus outbreak, UFC president Dana White is falling in line with the rest of the sports world.
White reportedly sent an email to UFC employees on Monday to inform them that UFC events on March 21, March 28 and April 11 have been indefinitely postponed.
The next three UFC events - 3/21, 3/28, 4/11 — have officially been canceled. Dana White officially made the call to employees earlier today. UFC 249’s fate has not been decided. Unclear if the fighters scheduled to compete on those cards will be compensated in any way.
