An event unlike any other casts an enormous shadow over the entire Ultimate Fighting Championship calendar for 2026: UFC White House on June 14 in Washington, D.C.
Details around the show remain sketchy, outside of it taking place on the South Lawn as part of the forthcoming 250th anniversary celebration of the United States. No matches have been made official, though there may be only one worthy of headlining such a historic fight card: Jon Jones vs. Alex Pereira for the symbolic BMF championship.
Jones vacated the heavyweight title when his retirement was announced on June 21.
