Dana White Reveals UFC 'Dream' Main Event Without Hesitation

The UFC has exploded in popularity over the last decade under president and CEO Dana White. Once a sport that few networks wanted to televise, it has now grown into one of the most watched and followed sports in the world.

With several blockbuster fights and stacked cards on the horizon—including UFC 318 next week, headlined by a BMF title bout between Max Holloway and Dustin Poirier, and UFC 319 in August, featuring a middleweight title clash between Dricus Du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev—the excitement around the promotion continues to grow.

However, all of that recently took a back seat to breaking news from President Donald Trump, who announced last week that a first-ever UFC event would be held at the White House in the near future. UFC CEO Dana White has since confirmed the development.

This week, White appeared on the "Full Send Podcast" and was asked about the potential event. He shared that fighters from all over the roster have been reaching out, eager to secure a spot on the historic card. If the event goes forward, White promised it would be "stacked."

Still, when asked about the biggest possible fight in the UFC right now, White didn’t hesitate to name his dream main event: rising star Tom Aspinall vs. the greatest of all time, Jon Jones—who recently re-entered the testing pool after briefly retiring.

When the fight is going on… one whole backdrop will be the White House, and the other side will be the Washington Monument,” White said. “We will absolutely, positively put on the baddest card of all time. Literally everybody wants to fight on this card. The dream main event right now would be Aspinall vs. Jones.”
