The pandemic situation has left a mark on the world. People and organizations had to find alternate ways of working. During such a time, it became very difficult for even MMA promotions to function. Because of the nature of the sport, it would have been quite a laborious task to host such events. However, UFC President Dana White succeeded in conducting several amazing events.
The promotion left no stone unturned to entertain its audience. Now, as the year 2021 comes to an end, White is ready to make 2022 a rocking year. He tweeted a few inspirational tweets about life and adversities.
He wrote, “What covid did for the UFC was give us the opportunity to prove that fear, hardship, and uncertainty are actually opportunities to grow. We crushed 2020 and 2021. It is time for everything to get back to normal. Make 2022 your year. JUMP IN AND SWIM!”

The pandemic forced UFC to change several aspects of how it worked. However, it was able to capitalize on the dire situation. With everyone stuck inside their homes, UFC and, in general, MMA became much popular.
While the audience might have been absent, fighters entered the octagon and faced each other even during such a critical time. Thus, the promotion stood up to its name- Ultimate Fighting Championship.
