Where in the world will UFC 249 take place? These are your betting odds

So far, there’s been a whole lot of aggressive and loud barking from Dana White about UFC 249, which he’s hell-bent on still making happen April 18 despite what feels like a global lockdown during the coronavirus pandemic.

Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Tony Ferguson means so much to the UFC president that he’s willing to take the risk of spreading COVID-19. Since there’s no safe or sane reason to do this, what else could it come down to but that?

One thing’s for sure: Joe Rogan will not be sitting cageside to commentate UFC 249. What’s not for sure is where in the world this pay-per-view will take place. That’s because White refuses to provide details, and the latest from an interview with Mike Tyson is that the UFC boss has “four to five locations” he’s working on.

Keeping all that in mind, the folks over at gambling site SportsBetting.ag have come up with these odds you can wager on for where UFC 249 will take place.

UFC 249 Location

Florida +225
United Arab Emirates +300
Mexico +500
Saudi Arabia +800
South Africa +1000
Nevada +1400
International Waters +2500
Area 51 +8000
North Korea +10000

Hey, Area 51 would be cool. All that’s missing is The Moon and Somewhere In Outter Space.

At any rate, if you miss being able to bet on sports during this coronavirus lockdown period, here’s another chance to go nuts.
