UFC
Making up for lost time (and canceled fight cards), UFC will shoehorn its “Smith vs. Texeira” event into the Wednesday night line up, sandwiched between UFC 249 and the upcoming “Fight Night” card on May 16. All three events will take place in Jacksonville, Florida, as a result of coronavirus restrictions that have most of the world locked down. Remember to sign up for ESPN+ to catch all of the hard-hitting action from “The Sunshine State!”
