White House Card Loses Fight Days Before UFC 326 Reveal

Dana White announced that one of the six fights originally planned for the UFC White House Card on June 14 has been cancelled. White revealed the news during UFC 326 ceremonial weigh-ins, telling Nina-Marie Daniele that a fight "literally just fell out" as he arrived. The event, officially titled "Freedom Fights 250: The White House," will take place on the South Lawn of the White House to celebrate America's 250th anniversary and features two title fights. While the specific fighter who pulled out remains unclear, speculation among fans has centered on potential withdrawals by Jon Jones or Alex Pereira. White indicated he may add a seventh bout to the card to compensate for the cancellation, with the full lineup to be announced during the UFC 326 broadcast.
