“We’ll see you soon. We will be the first event back. We’ll be the first sport back still.” -Dana White
Here we are. The man was true to his word. After an almost two-month hiatus during the coronavirus pandemic, the UFC is officially back. With “Fight Island” on ice for events in June and beyond, UFC 249 will take place this Saturday live from Jacksonville, Florida, and I’ll tell you, the card is stacked.
There are 15 ranked fighters sprinkled across the card, two titles will be up for grabs and the main event will be absolute fireworks.
