Dana White announced during UFC 327 that Derrick Lewis will fight Josh Emmett at the upcoming UFC event at the White House. The fight was organized following a request from Donald Trump, who was sitting next to White at the time of the announcement. This brings the White House card to seven total fights. The announcement came immediately after Emmett's Fight of the Night performance against Curtis Blaydes. The post notes that Trump's direct involvement led to this matchup being added to the historic event.
