UFC 220 to kick off 2018 PPV schedule in Boston

UFC 220 will begin the promotion's 2018 pay-per-view schedule Jan. 20 in Boston, Dana White told ESPN's Brett Okamoto.

No fights have been announced for the card.

A venue has not been confirmed either, though TD Garden would be assumed as it hosted the last UFC event in Boston, a fight night card in January 2016.

With the Irish background of Boston, Conor McGregor has named the city as one he would consider fighting in.
