UFC Plans Historic White House Event for 2026 Independence Day
President Donald Trump plans to celebrate America's 250th anniversary in 2026 with a historic UFC event on the White House lawn, which has generated significant buzz across the MMA community. UFC veterans Jon Jones and Conor McGregor have both expressed interest in participating, with Jones reportedly coming out of retirement to fight Tom Aspinall in the main event, while McGregor is envisioned as the co-main event against Michael Chandler. UFC Hall of Famer Michael Bisping has enthusiastically supported the concept and proposed a fantasy fight card featuring these matchups along with other notable bouts, including a women's flyweight title fight and a middleweight grudge match. Despite some speculation about potential fights such as Jones vs. Brock Lesnar, concerns about Lesnar's age and inactivity make that less likely. The event is seen as a unique blend of sport and national celebration, leveraging President Trump's close relationship with UFC CEO Dana White. While logistical challenges remain, the proposal has captured the imaginations of fighters and fans alike.
