The UFC has a "very unique" event in the works, Dana White said after UFC 333 in Abu Dhabi, and he saw renderings of it before he flew out for the card.

"We're working on an event right now that will be very unique," White said at the UFC 333 post-fight press conference. "I already started to see renderings of what we could possibly do before I flew to Abu Dhabi, and I look forward to announcing that soon." He did not say what the event is, where it will be held or when it will take place.

UFC 333 was headlined by Alexander Volkanovski keeping his featherweight title. At the same press conference, White said the UFC's events in Qatar and Saudi Arabia on 21 November and 5 December will go ahead despite the war in the region.
