UFC Fight Night: Dern vs Yan's Wikipedia's page edited to poke fun at Mark Zuckerberg.

The edit came after Zuckerberg was seen in attendance for UFC Vegas 61 with his wife. Dana White and the UFC had earlier announced that the UFC Apex Facility will be closed off to media personnel and fans on Oct. 1.

Although no official reason was given, rumors started flying that it had something to do with the Meta CEO.

MMA journalist Ariel Helwani delved into the issue and shared his thoughts on the logic behind the decision:

"I was told that it had to do something with Mark Zuckerberg. Now, is he renting it out just for him? ... Are they renting it out to do something? Some sort of metaverse event?... We'll see.

"Maybe that's why Dana White was being coy about it. You know when he has an announcement to make, you know, when he has something up his sleeve, he doesn't just like to blurt it out."

UFC president Dana White denied the rumors, saying Zuckerberg had not rented out the Apex facility for UFC Fight Night: Dern vs. Yan.

But the billionaire's appearance at the event appears to be in contradicition with White's words.
