TL;DR Summary

The UFC plans a June 14 White House event to mark America’s 250th anniversary, with an estimated $60 million spend described as a long-term investment for earned media rather than profit; corporate partners are expected to offset about $30m. The event would host around 5,000 spectators on the South Lawn and about 80,000 more at the Ellipse, while bouts are not yet confirmed though several big-name fighters have shown interest.
