Dana White defiant at final UFC Freedom 250 presser as troubling weather reports loom [View all]
The UFC has spent months making plans for one of the most unique events in MMA history, UFC Freedom 250 at the White House this Sunday in Washington.
The seven-fight show features fan-favorites Diego Lopes, Michael Chandler and Sean O'Malley in separate fights, a heavyweight interim title clash between Alex Pereira and Ciryl Gane, and a lightweight championship bout between Ilia Topuria and challenger Justin Gaethje. The card is stacked with big names and fights that promise finishes.
But there is one possible issue: Inclement weather.
At the time of publication Friday, The Weather Channel forecasts a 50% chance of rain for Sunday in D.C., with the "potential for severe thunderstorms."
