the Head of the ultimate fighting championship (UFC) Dana white has accused journalists of trying to disrupt the tournament the organization held in may. About it reports The Guardian.
According to officials, the American press has published a large number of notes, authors are urged to prohibit the carrying out of the competition due to a pandemic coronavirus. This has complicated the work of the organization at UFC events. White said that the UFC has done a lot of work to make the tournaments were safe for the participants.
the Organization has held three tournaments in Jacksonville (USA, Florida) in the period 9 to 16 may. The competitions were held without spectators. The main fight of the week was the match between the Americans Tony Ferguson and Justin Gati ended in victory for the latter.
Originally a rival of Ferguson was to become the champion of UFC in lightweight Russian Habib Nurmagomedov, but the fighter could not fly from Russia because of the restrictions on air traffic.
