Kortet innehåller sex eller sju matcher mitt i spekulationer kring Conor McGregor och Jon Jones.

UFC-presidenten Dana White bekräftade vid presskonferensen inför UFC 326 i Las Vegas att den kompletta line-upen för White House-kortet – tidigare beskrivet som ett evenemang den 14 juni 2026 på South Lawn för att fira Flag Day, USA:s 250-årsjubileum och president Trumps 80-årsdag – kommer att annonseras under UFC 326-sändningen (CBS 20-22 ET, sedan Paramount+).  nnI en intervju med Piers Morgan avslöjade White att kortet inkluderar sex matcher, potentiellt sju, och sade: ”Jag tittar på det just nu. Jag stirrar på alla sex matcher.” Han betonade hemlig daglig matchmaking och avfärdade online-rykten som roliga läckor.  nnPlaner för arenan visar skillnader: Trump föreställer sig en stadion med 100 000 platser, medan TKO:s Ari Emanuel beskrev 3 000–4 000 på South Lawn plus visning vid The Ellipse, med kostnader upp till 60 miljoner dollar.  nnSpekulationer kring fighters fortsätter, med McGregor som hävdar en ”done deal” 2025 (förhandlingar pågår enligt White) och Jones i samtal för att delta igen. Alex Pereira ryktas. Kritiker som John Pavlovitz fördömer det som ”insanity”.

Vad folk säger
