While the MMA community is picking up potential fights for the planned event of the US President in the White House, a UFC employee is concerned about logistics.
Donald Trump recently announced a UFC fight to take place at the Witte House Lawn as part of the celebrations of next year July 4.
The plan quickly attracted widespread reactions and attention, including a number of remarkable UFC hunters who want the 250 -year anniversary of the signing of the declaration of independence with octagonal action.
Conor McGregor wants to make his comeback in the White House, while the colleague -for example champion Jones van de Irish has plagued a return for the occasion.
But Daniel Cormier thinks that everyone might run for themselves.

Daniel Cormier is not sure if the UFC Witte Huis event 'De Squeeze is worth'
During a recent episode of his Good Guy/Bad Guy show on the YouTube channel of ESPN MMA, Cormier responded to Trump's plan to have UFC promotion take place outside of one of the world's most famous buildings.
'DC' revealed the extra steps that UFC employees must go before Pay-per-View events that the President attends, and wonders whether it would be possible to replicate for more than 20,000 people outside the White House.
“When he said,” We're going to do a UFC event in the White House, “I thought,” Oh my God, that's exciting. ” Then I started to think …
“For him to just argue, all the hoops we go through as people who work for the company (UFC), right? The secret service is in the arena the day before. We all have to do so many other things – background controls and all these things – because the president is going to be there.
“Imagine trying to place 25,000 in the White House. They go all those steps for all those people?” Cormier added. “I think that we as a country can do what we want … (but) I don't know that the effort needed to make that happen will be worth it.
“And it will be outside? In July? It will be hot in Washington in July!”
Daniel Cormier supports Jon Jones for UFC White House Main Event
If the event continues, Cormier does not want to see surprisingly that an American has lifted his hand during the national celebration.
And when it comes to selecting the best 'bad American' to get the job done for his country, 'DC' would look at his old arch rival.
“It needs a bad, bad American who is going to win,” Cormier said during the same video. “It hurts me to say, if we have to send a bad American to get the job done … Call Jon Jones.
“I would cheer so hard for him! I would cheer in the White House so loudly for him. I know you are always saying that I am hard for Jones, if we have to send an American hunter to the White House to get a Dub -Dub, man, Jon Jones there.
“I call him to ask him,” Cormier added. “I love Colby (Covington), I love Michael (Chandler) … If we have to do an American guy, man, you can better put Jon Jones to get a dub as a country.”
Given their heated history, it might be the only scenario that Cormier Jones would support.
