UFC 311, the promotion's first Pay-Per-View event of the year, is set to go down on Jan. 18 from the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles... but will it, though?
There's been much concern around the UFC's return to L.A, as wildfires continue to burn through the Los Angeles area all this week.

"The NFL announced yesterday that they are moving the Rams x Vikings playoff game, scheduled for Monday at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood to Glendale, Ariz. As of right now, 311 is staying at Intuit. The hope is it remains there. But they are monitoring and ready to move the card, if need be. No talks of delaying the card. Obviously that call needs to happen soon. The event is eight days away."
"Vegas would be the frontrunner," Helwani said, if the UFC decide to move the PPV event entirely. "Worth noting: T-Mobile Arena is not booked next Saturday, Jan. 18."
