President Donald Trump on Thursday night announced that he would host an Ultimate Fighting Championship fight at the White House next year as part of the United States’ 250th birthday celebration.
Trump is known to support the sport and has been spotted at multiple matches in the past. He is also a friend of UFC CEO Dana White.
“Every one of our national parks, battlefields and historic sites are going to have special events in honor of ‘America250’ and I even think we’re going to have a UFC fight,” Trump said in remarks at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. “Does anybody watch UFC? The great Dana White? We’re going to have a UFC fight. We’re going to have a UFC fight — think of this — on the grounds of the White House. We have a lot of land there.”
