Dana White Backs President Donald Trump’s Plan To Host Historic UFC Fight At The White House
Dana White and President Donald Trump have shared a strong friendship for years, often seen entering UFC arenas together to watch major events. Trump has consistently supported the UFC and its president, frequently attending fights and standing by White. Now, with plans for a historic UFC event at the White House, it looks like Trump is turning to White again to bring the vision to life, and the UFC boss seems more than ready to make it happen.
During a speech at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, Trump announced plans to host a UFC fight at the White House as part of the America 250 celebration. He mentioned utilizing the extensive grounds of the White House to build an arena capable of holding 20,000 to 25,000 spectators. The event will feature professional and amateur fights, with UFC president Dana White leading the organization.
Dana White appears to have approved, sharing the news on his Instagram story, suggesting he’s entirely on board. The UFC president has always been open to bold and unconventional events, previously coming close to booking a high-profile showdown between Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk.
“We’re gonna have a UFC fight on the grounds of the White House…Dana is going to do it. Dana is great, one of a kind, going to be UFC fight, championship fight, full fight, like 20,000 to 25,000 people, and we’re going to do that as part of ‘250’ also,” he said.

UFC Legend Pushes Dana White And Co. To Book Ilia Topuria vs. Paddy Pimblett
Michael Bisping believes the UFC should book Ilia Topuria vs. Paddy Pimblett next, despite Pimblett being ranked No. 10. He admits it would mean skipping contenders like Arman Tsarukyan and Justin Gaethje but says the intense rivalry could make it a massive draw. Bisping compared the tension to McGregor vs. Khabib and suggested Madison Square Garden as the perfect venue, with Gaethje possibly facing the winner.
Dana White and his team have been in the game long enough to understand the ins and outs of what makes a blockbuster event. With their experience and timing, it’ll be interesting to see what moves they make next. All eyes are now on White and Trump as they look to deliver something truly unforgettable.
