Fans book flights, hotels get reserved, and anticipation builds for months before major events. But sometimes the best-laid plans go sideways, and that appears to be exactly what&rsquo;s happening with UFC 320.<\/p><p>The September 14th event was supposed to celebrate Mexican Independence Day in style. The <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/mma\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC<\/a> was bringing the octagon to Arena Guadalajara for what promised to be an electric atmosphere.The plan seemed perfect. Hold the event in Mexico, feature Mexican star Yair Rodriguez in the main event, and give fans south of the border a championship fight to remember. Unfortunately, this may be in jeopardy now.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">UFC 320 May Have A Change Of Venue<\/h2><p>The problems started when Arena Guadalajara ran into serious construction delays that forced them to cancel all events through September 4th. This puts UFC 320&rsquo;s September 14th date in serious jeopardy, even though it falls just outside that cancellation window. According to Ariel Helwani, the promotion is seriously considering moving the entire event back to the United States rather than risk any last-minute complications.<\/p><p><strong><em>&ldquo;They [Arena Guadalajara] have according to reports cancelled events upto first week of September. I know for a fact that there have been talks of moving the event to the US<\/em><\/strong>.<strong><em> I heard Las Vegas.&rdquo;<\/em><\/strong><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#128680; There have been talks of moving <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/UFC320?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#UFC320<\/a> from Mexico to the USA, amid reports that construction delays have forced Arena Guadalajara &mdash; the planned Noche UFC venue &mdash; to cancel events through September 4<br><br>(per <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/arielhelwani?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@arielhelwani<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ArenaGdlMx?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@ArenaGdlMx<\/a>) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/yO0zb5M2C1\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/yO0zb5M2C1<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Championship Rounds (@ChampRDS) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChampRDS\/status\/1927512052278473196?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>May 27, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>The UFC doesn&rsquo;t like to take chances when it comes to venue readiness. This is especially true for pay-per-view events that generate millions in revenue. If the event were to change location, it would create a domino effect that goes far beyond just changing zip codes. Actual fights on the card would be subject to change as well.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will Movsar Evloev Finally Get His Title Shot?<\/h2><p>The main event was apparentlly supposed to feature Alexander Volkanovski defending his featherweight title against Yair Rodriguez in a rematch of their UFC 290 encounter. That first fight wasn&rsquo;t particularly close. Volkanovski dominated Rodriguez, winning by unanimous decision. The rematch made sense primarily because of Rodriguez&rsquo;s Mexican heritage and the event&rsquo;s location, but take away the Mexican venue and suddenly the matchmaking logic starts falling apart.<\/p><p>The talk of moving UFC 320 has reignited conversations about undefeated contender Movsar Evloev finally getting his deserved title opportunity. The Ingushetian fighter has quietly put together one of the most impressive resumes in the featherweight division. He has remained unbeaten through 18 professional fights. Volkanovski himself seemed open to facing Evloev after his recent victory over Diego Lopes at UFC 314. That was before the UFC hinted at the Rodriguez rematch. <\/p><p>If UFC 320 does end up moving to the United States, it could provide the perfect excuse to scrap the Rodriguez rematch. This could give Evloev the shot he&rsquo;s earned through consistent performances against tough competition.<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: Stephen R.
