  • Presiden UFC Dana White menyatakan bahwa tiga event menuju UFC 249 akan ditunda.
  • Tiga event itu adalah UFC Fight Night 171: London, UFC on ESPN 8, dan UFC Fight Night 172.
  • UFC 249 yang mempertemukan Khabib Nurmagomedov dengan Tony Ferguson pada 18 April 2020 (19 April 2020 WIB) akan tetap dilaksanakan. Namun, ajang ini tak akan digelar di Amerika Serikat.

SKOR.id - Laga UFC Fight Night 170 menjadi pertarungan terakhir yang digelar sebelum pelaksanaan UFC 249.

Ya, Presiden UFC Dana White mengumumkan bahwa tiga pertarungan di antara UFC Fight Night 170 dan UFC 249 ditunda.

"Tiga pertarungan UFC yang dijadwalkan digelar pada 21 Maret, 28 Maret, dan 11 April akan ditunda," tulis Dana White dalam rilis yang dikutip dari ESPN.

Tiga event itu adalah UFC Fight Night 171: London, UFC on ESPN 8, dan UFC Fight Night 172.

UFC Fight Night 171: London seharusnya digelar di The O2 Arena, London, Inggris, Sabtu (21/3/2020) atau Minggu (22/3/2020) WIB.

UFC Fight Night 171: London seharusnya mempertemukan Tyron Woodley dan Leon Edwards pada kelas welterweight (71-77 kg) sebagai main card.
 
Ajang kedua yang ditunda adalah UFC on ESPN 8 yang seharusnya digelar di UFC Apex, Las Vegas, Amerika Serikat, Sabtu (28/3/2020) atau Minggu (29/3/2020).

Laga main card UFC on ESPN 8 adalah kelas heavyweight (93,4-120,2 kg) yang mempertemukan Francis Ngannou melawan Jairzinho Rozenstruik.

Event ketiga adalah UFC Fight Night 172 yang seharusnya dilaksanakan di UFC Apex pada 11 April 2020 (12 April 2020 WIB).



Sebelumnya, Dana White sempat menyatakan bahwa ketiga ajang itu akan tetap digelar.

Namun, kondisi AS dan Inggris yang tak kondusif terkait pandemi virus corona, maka Dana White mengumumkan penundaan laga.

Meskipun begitu, Dana White sangat senang dengan hasil pelaksanaan UFC Fight Night 170 di Nilson Nelson Gymnasium, Brasilia, Brasil, Sabtu (14/3/2020) atau Minggu (15/3/2020) WIB.

Main card yang mempertemukan Kevin lee vs Charles Oliveira di kelas lightweight (66-70 kg) itu dimenangkan oleh Charles Oliveira.

"UFC Fight Night 170 menjadi salah satu trending topic dan para penggemar UFC sangat menantikan laga-laga ini," kata Dana White.

"Namun, tiga laga selanjutnya tak akan digelar," ucap White.

Selain alasan keselamatan, pemerintah AS juga memberlakukan peraturan ketat tentang pelaksanaan event yang akan mengumpulkan banyak orang.

Seperti dilansir BBC, pemerintah AS melarang segala kegiatan yang mengharuskan 10 orang atau lebih untuk berkumpul di satu tempat.

Meskipun begitu, White tetap yakin bahwa UFC 249 akan tetap diselenggarakan.

"Kami berharap semua hal akan lebih baik pada April dan pertarungan ini (UFC 249) akan tetap digelar," kata White.

"Apapun akan dilakukan untuk melaksanakan ajang ini dan mungkin tak akan dilaksanakan di AS. Laga ini akan tetap digelar," ujar White.

Ya, UFC 249 adalah salah satu laga pamungkas musim ini.

Main card UFC 249 adalah kelas lightweight yang mempertemukan Khabib Nurmagomedov dengan Tony Ferguson pada 18 April 2020 (19 April 2020 WIB).

Barclays Center, New York, seharusnya menjadi arena pelaksanaan UFC 249. Namun, hal itu tak mungkin dilakukan terkait kebijakan pemerintah AS dan pandemi virus corona.

Hingga Rabu (18/3/2020) sore WIB, UFC belum memberikan kepastian tentang arena yang akan menggelar UFC 249 atau apakah pertarungan ini digelar dengan atau tanpa penonton.
