Dana White: The UFC’s Deal With Paramount Includes Four Big Events in 2026, Including A Fight Card At The White House
Dana White wants to go all out with the new deal.
On August 11th, Dana White, the President of the UFC announced that the leader in MMA would be inking a deal with Paramount/CBS Sports for the next several years, including $7.7 billion dollars in it, which is a huge boost from the signing they made with ESPN in 2019 that was for five years and worth only a billion dollars for the UFC.
White spoke with CBS Sports where he informed them that he plans on doing four big events, including a PPV or Fight Night at the White House in Washington, DC.
White also claims this deal could lure back former champions Conor McGregor and Jon Jones to the UFC. However, current UFC Heavyweight Champion Tom Aspinall has already declined a meeting with Jones for the gold after being held off for so long when Jones held the Heavyweight Championship. McGregor, on the other hand is still dealing with legal problems, including sexually assaulting multiple women, as well as assaulting innocent bystanders in the last several years.
