UFC CEO Dana White has put an end to the talk about Jon Jones who fights in the White House.
The UFC is celebrating the 250th birthday of the US with a show in the official residence of President Donald Trump on July 4, 2026.
Jon Jones has conducted a public campaign to head the UFC card of the UFC.
The greatest MMA hunter of all time ended his short retirement to compete in the White House, but that does not seem like an option that his boss is now considering.

Dana White's White House -Update
Dana White answered questions from collected media after UFC 319 on Saturday evening.
The MMA Mogul recently claimed that a lack of trust prevents him from enabling Jones to head in the White House.
According to White, there is nothing that Jones can do to earn his trust and a place on the unique fight card.
“What do you think Jon would do in the coming months, which I trust in placing him on the map of the White House?” He then said a reporter asked what Jones should do to fight in the White House.
“I said I don't trust him and you ask me:” What could he do for me to trust him for the next three months. You don't trust him!
“I didn't speak to him at all. I wouldn't bet on it. If I had to make opportunities, it's a billion for one that I have placed Jon Jones on the White House card.”
Why doesn't Dana White Jon Jones trust?
Dana White spent most of 2025 to argue between Jones and Tom Aspinall.
The 56-year-old thought he had closed a deal with 'Bones', who withdrew at the last minute.
It is understandable that the entire testing White hesitates to trust the former two-weight UFC champion.
In July Jones admitted that he was 'disappointed' when his boss ruled him for the first time for the map of the White House.
It is unclear whether he still wants to make a comeback after White has revealed the chances of him that changed his mind.
