UFC boss White said: "This card was a lot more difficult to put together than we had anticipated, but we got it done."

The card will be headlined by Ilia Topuria taking on Justin Gaethje, with the former defending his undisputed lightweight belt.

Meanwhile, the likes of Alex Pereira, Sean O'Malley, Michael Chandler and Bo Nickal will also be in action.

Speaking previously to Paul, White revealed that the fighters would be walking out of the Oval Office.

He said: "The fighters are going to walk out of the Oval Office."

At this point, Paul was left stunned as he simply said: "Oh!"

White continued: "They're walking from the Oval Office."

Paul then said: "Bro, just for like American history, this will be looked back on forever."

White added: "If anybody, the fighters, their corner men, my production people, my pr people. This is a one-of-one, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that will never happen again.

"There won't be a yearly fight at the White House. This is going to be a one-and-done."

Speaking about the fight card, White said: "We're in a unique position here where we have these guys like Pereira, who has the opportunity to become a three-way champion, and Ilia Topuria is one of those guys, too. But right now, the timing is right for him and Justin Gaethje and that should be explosive.

"A fight fell out last night; the matchmaking team was literally in the office all night last night working on this thing. It's done, we're ready to roll. Here we come, Washington, D.C."
