Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) president Dana White is living on “Fight Island” for the entire month of July as the promotion unleashes four total events from inside Flash Forum on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi.
As White and company work tirelessly to keep the company moving and make “Fight Island” a smashing success, they are left to discover their own fun within the 10-square mile quarantined island. Luckily, UFC has constructed quite the setup for “Fight Island,” providing all who attend countless activities to distract them from the hot weather and ongoing COVID-19 protocol.
White, who usually follows local talent alongside former UFC fighter Matt Serra for his “Dana White: Lookin’ For a Fight” video series, released a new segment titled, “Dana White: Lookin’ Forward to a Fight,” earlier this week. The first episode, which can be seen above, follows White, Serra, and former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping as they dive deep into the offerings of “Fight Island.”
From the official YouTube description:
UFC President Dana White along with Hall of Famers Matt Serra and Michael Bisping explore Abu Dhabi in between UFC Fight Island events. On episode 1, the guys go pearl diving, rock climbing and indoor skydiving.
White may have enjoyed himself earlier in the week but the UFC president will have his hands full later tonight (Sat., July 18, 2020) at UFC Fight Island 2 live on ESPN+ from inside Flash Forum on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, as Deiveson Figueiredo and Joseph Benavidez collide for the vacant UFC flyweight title.
