The UFC will stage a championship event at the White House this June, with President Trump unveiling a special America 250 belt during an Oval Office visit with fighters and managers.
Trump, flanked by UFC personnel, called the upcoming competition "the biggest," according to social media footage.

What the White House championship means for UFC scheduling
The June date positions the White House event during the summer stretch of the UFC calendar, though the promotion has not confirmed whether the card will be a numbered pay-per-view or a standalone exhibition format. Trump has maintained close ties to UFC president Dana White for years, attending multiple fight cards and hosting events at Trump-branded properties before entering office.
Details on fighters, weight classes, and whether the America 250 belt will be a one-time presentation or part of a recurring series remain unannounced. The UFC's next scheduled pay-per-view lands in April with UFC 329.
