Jimmy Fallon took aim at the UFC’s ambitious White House event during a recent episode of The Tonight Show, mocking the visual renderings released by Dana White. The designs, which hint at a grand spectacle including Conor McGregor’s long-awaited return, were described by Fallon as “ridiculous” while being shown on screen to the audience.
The UFC event, still in early planning stages, has already sparked conversation beyond the MMA community, drawing attention from mainstream media and late-night hosts. While fans and fighters await further announcements on fight cards, Dana White has expressed hesitation about including Jon Jones, citing trust issues stemming from the former champion’s inactivity and handling of his final months in the sport. The White House event remains a highly anticipated but still uncertain milestone for the UFC.
