Dana White rules out future UFC fight nights at White House

White also condemned comments made by fighter Josh Hokit after his bout, during which Hokit made controversial remarks about former First Lady Michelle Obama. White stated he hates 'nasty and false things about people’s families' and 'that kind of nonsense.'

White indicated that the construction of the massive structure housing the octagon for the event cost $60 million, a cost that UFC absorbed. While the event was associated with President Trump and coincided with 'America 250' celebrations, White aimed to present it as a unifying event celebrating America rather than a political statement.

Despite White's decision not to repeat the White House event, there are ongoing discussions about potentially staging future military-themed UFC events at U.S. bases.
