New details have been released regarding the UFC's potential White House tournament. According to available sources, this was reported by Red Corner MMA.
According to reports, the octagon is planned to be installed on the South Lawn, and the fighters will train inside the White House. It was noted that the weigh-in ceremony is expected to be held on the eve of the battle, the day before, near the Lincoln Memorial. At the same time, special events for fans, fireworks, and drone shows are planned to be organized on the territory of the National Park.
Star fighters such as John Jones and Conor McGregor have expressed interest in participating in the show. UFC President Dana White stated his determination to hold the fight night despite logistical difficulties. He emphasized that the decisive factor will be clear planning and systematic cooperation, not superstitions in a large format.
As previously reported, the tournament, which is expected to take place on the territory of the White House, is scheduled for July 4, 2026. It was noted that this date has symbolic significance in connection with the 250th anniversary of the USA. It was noted that the preliminary statement in this direction was made by UFC head Dana White.
Final confirmations regarding technical and organizational aspects have not yet been released, so it is possible that some details will change. However, if this project is implemented, the octagon on the White House lawn will become a historic stage, a unique spectacle for fans, and a memorable day.
