  • Dana White mengumumkan UFC 261 yang akan digelar pada 24 April 2021 bisa dihadiri oleh penonton secara langsung.
  • Sejak pandemi Covid-19 melanda, ini menjadi momen pertama UFC menggelar duel di Amerika Serikat dengan kehadiran penonton.
  • Tiga laga perebutan gelar juara pun telah di-booking untuk mengisi fight card UFC 261.

SKOR.id - Upaya presiden UFC, Dana White, untuk kembali menggelar pertarungan yang bisa dihadiri penonton secara langsung di Amerika Serikat akhirnya menemui titik terang.

Pada Senin (15/3/2021), Dana White mengumumkan bahwa ajang pay-per-view (PPV) UFC 261 yang akan digelar pada 24 April 2021 bisa dihadiri langsung oleh penonton.

VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena yang menjadi venue pertandingan pun diklaim boleh menampung penonton dengan kapasitas maksimal, yakni 15.000 orang.

Ini bakal menjadi momen pertama, pascapandemi Covid-19, UFC menggelar duel di Amerika Serikat dengan kehadiran khalayak umum.

Sebenarnya UFC sudah memperbolehkan penonton hadir di sekitar octagon sejak beberapa bulan lalu, tepatnya saat mereka 'mengungsi' ke Fight Island.

Fight Island adalah pulau pribadi dengan fasilitas super lengkap yang terletak di kawasan Abu Dhabi, Uni Emirat Arab.

Dana White menyewa tempat itu setelah UFC kesulitan mendapat izin menggelar duel di Amerika Serikat, ditambah susahnya akses masuk petarung asing ke Negeri Paman Sam.

Pertarungan UFC yang bergulir di Fight Island pun berjalan relatif lancar berkat sistem bubble dan protokol kesehatan ketat yang diterapkan.

Selama pandemi berlangsung, UFC sebenarnya juga telah menggelar beberapa fight night di fasilitas tertutup bernama UFC Apex yang terletak di Nevada, Amerika Serikat.

Akan tetapi, UFC 261 yang akan berlangsung pada April nanti menjadi event pertama yang boleh dihadiri langsung oleh penonton.

 

Sebagai upaya memeriahkan momen kembalinya penonton ke pinggir octagon dalam UFC 261, tiga duel perebutan gelar juara pun telah direncanakan.

Juara kelas terbang putri UFC (53-57 kg), Valentina Shevchenko, dijadwalkan untuk mempertahankan gelarnya kontra Jessica Andrade.

Sementara pemegang sabuk kelas strawweight putri UFC (48-52 kg) asal Cina, Zhang Weili, akan menghadapi tantangan Rose Namajunas.

Sedangkan duel utama UFC 261 bakal mempertemukan juara kelas welter (71-77 kg), Kamaru Usman, dengan Jorge Masvidal.

Selain tiga laga perebutan gelar juara di atas, UFC 261 juga telah menjadwalkan duel kelas light heavyweight (84-93 kg) antara Anthony Smith kontra Jimmy Crute.

Fight card untuk UFC 261 masih akan terus disusun dalam beberapa pekan ke depan dan ada kemungkinan empat duel yang telah diumumkan bisa diganti.
