The founder of the fighting promotion PFL, **Don Davis**, has proposed hosting a tournament in front of the White House on July 4, 2026. The main event would feature a fight between Cameroonian **Francis Ngannou** and Russian **Vadim Nemkov**. Additionally, he suggested a rematch between **Usman Nurmagomedov** and **Paul Hughes** as the co-main event of the evening.
“MMA at the White House. What a fantastic idea, Mr. Trump. July 4, 2026. PFL presents an incredible fight card for mixed martial arts fans to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States!” Davis wrote in a post on his X (formerly Twitter) account.
It is worth noting that just a few days earlier, the President of the United States announced that a UFC tournament would take place on July 4, 2026, in front of the White House. Former MMA fighter Jon Jones has already expressed his desire to participate in the event.
