UFC 257 is a known Pay-Per-View, and by now if someone is an MMA enthusiast and not living under a rock then must be aware that the event is set to take place on January 23 at UFC 257.
Now, with just a week left to the first PPV of 2021, the flow of promotions is at large, and though it is a known fact that the main event and the subsequent co-main needs no advertising yet, anything that can add value to the number (Buy-rate) which is already expected to pass the million mark, would be largely welcomed. However, the element that can give the marquee show its biggest push is its official press preference and up until now, there was no knowledge of whether the segment will take place or not.
