HuffPost
Sean Strickland said he'd take part in the fighting event on the South Lawn under one condition.
UFC star Sean Strickland, who backed President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign, doesn’t appear interested in a fighting event planned to take place at the White House next year.
Strickland, while discussing the event in a recent livestream with controversial streamer Adin Ross, brought up an unnamed fighter’s reservations about fighting “in front of billionaires.”
“I think I’d want to do the White House... if there was some kind of inclusion for fans,” he explained.
“So if there was some kind of inclusion for fans, it’d be more — but like, just to go hang out with the fucking Epstein list? I’m good, dog. I’m good, dude.”
The UFC is expected to host its event on the South Lawn on June 14, 2026, as part of America’s 250th anniversary celebration.
