One of the most unique events in sports history will take place on Sunday, when the UFC Octagon lands on the South Lawn of the White House for UFC Freedom 250.
The event will not only take place at arguably the most unique venue to ever host a major sporting event, but features a card loaded with big names and exciting fights.

In the main event, Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje look to settle their differences with the undisputed lightweight title at stake. Gaethje earned the interim title in January with a thrilling win over Paddy Pimblett while Topuria stayed out of action for a year to deal with personal issues at home. Now, the two have ramped up the trash talk during fight week and are ready to get the action going inside the Octagon.
The in the co-main event, a new interim heavyweight king will be crowned when Alex Pereira takes on Ciryl Gane. Pereira is looking to make history as he pursues a championship in a third division, something that has never been done in UFC. Gane, meanwhile, looks to claim the interim title for the second time in his career and in the fifth UFC title fight he has participated in.
