## Resource

A Korean War hero and U.S. Navy veteran, Royce Williams, walked out UFC fighter Michael Chandler at a historic UFC event held on the White House South Lawn — a first for the sport, timed to coincide with the president’s birthday and the nation’s 250th anniversary. Williams, who downed four Soviet jets in a secret 1952 dogfight and later received the Medal of Honor, became a symbol of American grit amid the spectacle. Despite legal challenges and lawsuits claiming the event prioritized private interests over public good, a judge blocked efforts to stop it. The night ended with Justin Gaethje claiming victory and the president and First Lady entering the cage to celebrate — blending military legend, MMA drama, and presidential pageantry in one unforgettable night.
