## Resource

Months and months. The UFC spent months hyping the release of its White House event fight card. Back in July of last year, Dana White said it would be the “Sphere on steroids.” In December, the President of the United States promised “eight or nine championship fights.” Basically every UFC fighter begged to be involved. Imagine our surprise, then, when the promotion finally released the full list of fights last Saturday and it looked like … just another event? Not BAD by any stretch, but also not the super-mega-MAGA jerkfest we were promised. Now fans are upset, and Jon Jones is having an existential crisis. So we ask: Is this the biggest whiff in UFC history? Did the UFC keep the White House card sealed in a giant egg only to watch it fall flat when it finally hatched at Survivor Series 1990? Also, Charles Oliveira and Max Holloway kinda underwhelmed and Francis Ngannou is fighting on Netflix … against Philipe Lins??? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
