UFC Pay-Per-View Card Coming to England
UFC president Dana White has revealed some exciting pay-per-view plans for a numbered card fight taking place in England. In an exclusive interview with Adam Catterall for TNT Sports, White discussed the success of Tom Aspinall and Leon Edwards, which made it impossible to ignore the prospect of having another stacked card on English soil.
White expressed his enthusiasm for the English fighters, stating, ‘I have an English heavyweight champion [Aspinall] and lots of other European stars. There are two champions now out of England, so we have these teams that build all their different pieces to the puzzle. Then we come together with me, and then I start trying to fit the pieces of the puzzle together. I have got great fights lined up for the UK fans, and I’m excited to get back there.’
When asked about the timing of the announcement for the English card, White mentioned that they are working on the details and it will be revealed soon. He added, ‘It’ll be a numbered, pay-per-view card.’
Tom Aspinall’s Next Steps
During the interview, White also discussed the future of Tom Aspinall, the English heavyweight champion. He did not rule out the possibility of an interim heavyweight title defense for Aspinall, considering Jon Jones’ current injury. Although Jones holds the UFC heavyweight title, his fight against Stipe Miocic for the title defense is yet to be rescheduled. White stated, ‘Who knows when they [Jones and Miocic] will fight? It’s not right to let Tom sit, and if he wants to defend the title, we’ll absolutely do it.’
UFC 300 : The Greatest Combat Sports Card
White also provided insights into the highly anticipated UFC 300 card in Las Vegas. The event will feature Alex Pereira’s light-heavyweight title defense against Jamahal Hill. White emphasized the magnitude of this card, stating, ‘When you look at UFC 300 , we have 12 former and current UFC champions or interim champions. There are seven pound-for-pound fighters, and almost every single fight features a rank contender. There are 16 ranking fighters in total, and it’s expected to break every record at the T Mobile Arena with a $15 million gate. So, UFC 300 is the greatest combat sports card ever assembled.’
