Overview
- Trump recently touted a June 14 South Lawn card with a temporary arena and “eight or nine” championship fights and large public viewing areas.
- Rogan questioned the math and feasibility on his podcast, noting the UFC’s divisional limits and calling the nine-title-fight idea “nuts.”
- Urging star power, Rogan said it would be a “travesty” if Jon Jones is not booked, despite Dana White’s public doubts about Jones’ reliability.
- Rogan also warned about unique pressures and logistics at the White House, citing security protocols and the risks of heat and humidity for an outdoor event.
- Oddsmakers at BetOnline.ag posted props projecting roughly 3–4 title fights, and despite prior logistics talk and a reported $700,000 lawn restoration pledge, the UFC has not announced matchups or validated Trump’s count.
