The UFC may have found a location around that time next year, because President Donald Trump has announced a special UFC event on the White House site.
That's right, President Trump said that a UFC fight in 2026 will be from the 250th birthday of the US, and many hunters such as Superster Conor McGregor have shown their interest to fight about it.
