Quick read

Dana White discussed contingency plans for various weather conditions during the upcoming UFC event at the White House. White stated he dislikes outdoor events due to unpredictability but confirmed the show will continue through rain or snow, with only lightning capable of stopping the event. The UFC is working with military weather experts who will provide updates every two hours starting ten days before the event and hourly within seven days. White mentioned they can shift the event timing by two hours in either direction if needed. He compared the situation to Abu Dhabi events where weather is more predictable. The UFC is also collaborating with a company experienced in outdoor concerts to manage weather-related challenges.
