ABU DHABI – Casey Kenney spoke to the media Tuesday ahead of his fight with Nathaniel Wood at UFC 254.
Kenney (15-2-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC) discussed his 140-pound catchweight fight with fellow prospect Wood (17-4 MMA, 4-1 UFC), why leaving “Fight Island” for a 10-day camp and returning made sense, and missing out on a fight with Thomas Almeida.

UFC 254 takes place Saturday at Flash Forum at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN2/ESPN+ and early prelims on UFC Fight Pass/ESPN+.
