UFC At The White House Will Happen On Donald Trump's Birthday (June 14th) Next Year

During his speech at Naval Station Norfolk this week, Donald Trump announced that the UFC White House card will take place on his birthday, June 14th. It was originally set to take place on the Fourth of July to celebrate the country's 250th birthday, but it had to be moved due to scheduling/logistical reasons - so now we've got something even better: Trump's birthday! 

It is pretty hilarious that now it's like Donny is throwing himself an all time birthday barbecue in the backyard, but instead of a bouncy house, they've got an octagon! Dana White also clarified that despite Conor McGregor claiming his return at the White House is a "signed....DONE DEAL" - they won't be starting any fight negotiations til February....

Not exactly the most shocking news if we're being honest.

This should be an all-time card stacked with potential of multiple superfights (Conor McGregor vs Michael Chandler/Jon Jones vs Tom Aspinall/Kayla Harrison vs Amanda Nunes??) but like UFC Noche at the Sphere or even the Times Square Ring Magazine card, I think everyone's more curious about what this will look like over anything else. If they get even close to the renderings it's gonna look like an outrageous level in a fighting game....
