The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has been told that UFC 249 will not happen Saturday, April 18.

UFC President Dana White has been trying to keep UFC 249 on line for that date but has been informed from Disney and ESPN that the event should not go on as planned.

The main event was canceled when the coronavirus hit New York where it was scheduled and one of the fighters couldn't get out of Russia due to travel restrictions. 

There will be no events happening over several weeks.
