UFC White House Card Is ‘Built’ as Dana White Heads to D.C. for Trump Sign‑Off

White plans to seek presidential approval this week on production details for a compact, UFC‑funded South Lawn show.

Overview

  • White says matchmakers have laid out two versions of the lineup and clarified the card is “built,” not officially finalized.
  • Dana White and UFC content chief Craig Borsari will brief the president and his team on the proposed fights and three production approaches.
  • No bouts are announced, with negotiations and public lobbying continuing as Colby Covington confirms talks and Nate Diaz names preferred opponents.
  • Some stars report no contact for the limited slots, with Sean O’Malley saying he has not heard from the promotion about June 14.
  • Executives describe a costly, UFC‑paid spectacle with a smaller slate of fights and a CBS/Paramount+ broadcast, while public statements differ on crowd size and the number of title bouts.
