Muhammad doesn’t think there will be any real MMA fans at the
UFC White House card.
The
UFC will host a one-of-a-kind event at the White House on
President Donald Trump’s birthday, June 14, on the South Lawn of
the White House. The card, billed as Freedom Fights 250, will be a
celebration of America’s 250th year of independence.
Muhammad recently compared the event to “The Hunger Games,” the
dystopian series of movies based on the books written by Suzanne
Collins. The movies portray a survival competition where
participants must fight to the death until the last man stands.
Muhammad recalls a scene from the first movie where the protagonist
Katniss Everdeen, played by Jennifer Lawrence, goes for her
tryouts, while uninterested rich patrons go on with their
discussions. Muhammad believes the White House crowd will also not
be paying much attention to the action inside the Octagon, barring
the occasional highlight-reel knockout.
No Real Fans
“It’s not open to the public, not open to real fans,” Muhammad said
