The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) has released the inaugural images of the Freedom 250 fight kits, specially designed for the upcoming event at the White House. These commemorative kits are set to be unveiled just weeks before the June 14th spectacle, which will take place on the South Lawn of the White House. Fans eager to get their hands on this exclusive merchandise can now purchase it online.
Venum Designs Patriotic Gear for UFC’s White House Card
The concept for a UFC event at the White House was initially proposed by President Donald Trump during a rally in Iowa in July of the previous year. He envisioned a full UFC card, attended by 20,000 to 25,000 spectators, held on the grounds of the White House to commemorate America’s 250th anniversary. UFC CEO Dana White subsequently confirmed the event following discussions with the Trump administration. The chosen date also coincides with President Trump’s 80th birthday.
Venum, the official outfitter for UFC, has crafted these special fight kits using a classic American color palette of red, white, and blue. A prominent White House emblem is featured on the front of the gear, accompanied by an exclusive “USA 250” patch. This patch is a collaborative effort involving Fanatics, the White House, and the America 250 initiative. The fight kits will be available for purchase on ufcstore.com, venum.com, and fanatics.com. Additionally, for those in Washington D.C., the merchandise will be accessible at the Lincoln Memorial press conference on June 12th, at The Ellipse Park on June 13th and 14th, and through a pop-up store located at 1099 14th St NW from June 11th to 14th.
The main event of the Freedom 250 card will feature Ilia Topuria defending his lightweight championship against interim champion Justin Gaethje. In the co-main event, Alex Pereira will face Ciryl Gane for the interim heavyweight title. The fight lineup also includes Sean OโMalley versus Aiemann Zahabi in a bantamweight clash, Mauricio Ruffy against Michael Chandler in a lightweight bout, Bo Nickal facing Kyle Daukaus in the middleweight division, and Diego Lopes competing against Steve Garcia in a featherweight contest.
The complete card will showcase a total of 14 fighters, as revealed during the initial press conference. Winners of the bouts will receive a custom championship belt adorned with an American flag design and the Roman numeral “1776.”
