As far as UFC events are concerned, nothing can top UFC Freedom 250 taking place on the South Lawn of the White House – can it?
Fight fans could find out soon as UFC CEO Dana White on Tuesday revealed that the promotion's head of production, Craig Borsari, who was in charge of logistics and staging for UFC Freedom 250, has already started cooking up another big ideal.
"There will never be anything like the White House ever again," White said on "The Pat McAfee Show." "That night, we already had high expectations for it. I was blown away. It's the greatest thing I've ever been a part of. Being there live was amazing. But now my head of production, Craig Borsari, is so cocky after he absolutely killed that event, we are talking about something right now that he came up with. This was his idea, and I love it.
"I have to do some more groundwork on it and if I end up doing this, I'll announce it here first."
Production cost for UFC Freedom 250 was $60 million, with parent company TKO reporting a net loss of $30 million.
In the buildup to the historic event at the White House, White repeatedly said a show of that magnitude would be a once-in-a-lifetime venture.
Or perhaps Borsari will convince him otherwise.
