Dana White announced a fight between Derrick Lewis and Josh Hockit for the upcoming White House event during the UFC 327 broadcast. The matchup was made following a direct request from Donald Trump, who was sitting ringside next to White during the announcement. This represents an unusual situation where the sitting president directly influenced fight booking at a live event. The White House UFC event has been previously announced, and this will be one of the featured bouts. No specific date for the event was mentioned in this post, though it appears to be firmly scheduled.
