In a video posted to the official UFC Instagram page, Dana White said that even though UFC 249 was cancelled, the island he bought to hold the event is very real.
He said: “Fight Island is real. Fight Island is a real thing. The infrastructure is being built right now on the island. I’m ready to go. All the fights that you wanted to see are coming. I respect ESPN. They’ve been an amazing partner to us since Day One. Them asking me to stand down, there is no way I would not do it. The fight (UFC 249) is not canceled, the fight is postponed and being pushed back. All my fighters that are nervous and freaking out. Don’t be. Don’t be worried about the money, it’s coming. We’re going to hold our schedule. All these fights are still gonna happen. We’re getting ready for Fight Island. Fight Island is where it’s all gonna happen. Fight Island is coming. Infrastructure is being built. We’ll be back soon. We’ll be the first sport back, still. Thank you all.”
