Quick read
UFC is reportedly bypassing Conor McGregor for the June White House event celebrating Trump's birthday, opting for other matchups as per Ariel Helwani. The decision prioritizes more enticing fights over McGregor's anticipated return, potentially saving him for a lucrative International Fight Week slot. This shifts focus in the lightweight and welterweight divisions, where McGregor's absence opens opportunities for rising stars. The White House card lineup is expected next week. Fans await confirmation, but it underscores UFC's strategic booking for high-profile occasions.
