Construction has begun at the White House ahead of UFC Freedom 250. he promotion released renderings last week showing the planned setup, including "the claw," a massive lighting and cover structure that was built in Europe and shipped to the United States specifically for the occasion. Dana White's stated vision is to keep the White House visible as the backdrop for every fight. The venue will seat roughly 5,000 people, a mix of military members and guests invited by the UFC and the White House.
