The event will be held outdoors on the South Lawn of the White House revealed White. The UFC, in conjunction with White House staff, have begun formulating the logistics. 'We're going to be on the South Lawn and literally when you're watching the fight it will be all the White House here and behind me will be the Washington Monument," White said.

UFC president Dana White commented Thursday on the proposed UFC event at the White House in Washington, D.C., next year.

White hinted that there “could be” a scenario where Jones and McGregor could fight on the same card. McGregor has not competed in a UFC octagon since losing to Dustin Poirier (twice) in 2021.
