UFC 254, which will take place on October 24 in Abu Dhabi, will be held without spectators. The lightweight champion of the organization Khabib Nurmagomedov told the press about this today.

“The tournament will be closed, there will be no fans. So my family will wait for me behind the arena, in the hotel,” the fighter said.

This tournament will be headlined by a lightweight title fight: champion Khabib Nurmagomedov against interim champion Justin Gaethje.
