Quick read
Dana White showed how the arena will look for the UFC event at the White House. The stage is being built in Europe and will be shipped to Philadelphia before being trucked to Washington, where it will be erected on the South Lawn with the White House as the backdrop. White emphasized that UFC is paying for everything with no taxpayer money being used, calling it a gift for America's 250th anniversary. Over 70,000 people have applied for tickets on UFCfreedom250.com, with free tickets available at the Ellipse park across from the arena. More than 100,000 fans are expected to attend fight week events including a two-day fan festival, press conference, and weigh-ins, with the Zac Brown Band performing all day.
