Josh Hockett will meet Derrick Lewis at UFC White House on June 14, as announced by Dana White during a live broadcast. The matchup was initiated by President Donald Trump, who watched Hockett's performance from the front row. Hockett accepted the fight immediately before being transported to the hospital following his bout with Curtis Blaydes. The announcement represents an unusual circumstance where a sitting U.S. president directly influenced UFC matchmaking.
