The event scheduled for June 14 has already been dubbed a "unique event." The main fight of the first show in January will be a meeting for the interim lightweight title between Justin Gaethje and Paddy Pimblett. After this show, the UFC will focus more on fight matchmaking, and working on the card for the event at the White House will become a top priority. According to the new schedules, most participants will be selected by the second week of February, significantly earlier than initially planned.
Additionally, Dana White commented on rumors about potential fights at this event, including the matchup between Conor McGregor and Jorge Masvidal, which arose after the cancellation of McGregor's fight with Michael Chandler. The UFC president dismissed these rumors, emphasizing that much of the discussion online does not align with the organization's actual plans.
Thus, UFC fans are now actively interested in which fighters will be featured in one of the most significant fight cards in the promotion's history. The accelerated preparation process for this event will allow for a careful selection of participants and make the show as spectacular as possible.
