BREAKING: U.S. President Donald Trump just announced that a highly anticipated UFC event will take place at the White House on June 14, 2024, coinciding with his 80th birthday. During a speech in Norfolk, Virginia, Trump declared, “On June 14, next year, we’re going to have a big UFC fight at the White House, right at the White House grounds.” This event promises to be a historic celebration, marking the upcoming 250th anniversary of American Independence.

The UFC has not yet confirmed the date or details, but insiders indicate the event will occur on the South Lawn. UFC CEO Dana White has previously outlined ambitious plans for the event, including official weigh-ins at the Lincoln Memorial and a staggering cost of $700,000 just to replace the grass afterward.

Fans are already buzzing with excitement, especially as Conor McGregor has expressed interest in a showdown against American fighter Michael Chandler during this landmark event. Additionally, Jon Jones, who retired earlier this year as one of the greatest fighters of all time, is reportedly considering a comeback specifically for this UFC card.

The UFC is set to begin booking fights in the first quarter of 2026, but the anticipation surrounding this event is already reaching fever pitch. With UFC fighters expected to make their way to the Octagon directly from the Oval Office, the spectacle is anticipated to draw significant media attention and fanfare.

As details continue to unfold, fans and critics alike are eager to see how this unprecedented event will reshape the landscape of sports and politics in America. Stay tuned for further updates as the UFC and the White House finalize arrangements. This is a developing story that promises to capture the nation’s attention!
