Matt Brown: White House card won't be 'biggest ever'

Retired UFC welterweight Matt Brown expressed doubts on February 15, 2026, about UFC delivering the 'biggest card ever' at the White House event on June 14, citing diminished star power without active Conor McGregor or Jon Jones reliability. He confirmed Ilia Topuria vs. Justin Gaethje title unification as likely main event but warned of hype disappointment like UFC 300. Brown's view highlights promotion challenges in stacking historic cards. It tempers fan expectations for landmark lightweight unification. Solid fights possible, but mega-stars scarce.
