White House cage fight is ‘going to happen,' says UFC boss
A cage fight at the White House? It sounds like a columnist's crazy fever dream, but the president's already suggested it—and his pal Dana White said it's very real. 'That is going to happen," the UFC maestro-slash-manosphere whisperer told me Monday. I'd gotten on the phone with White to talk about his gargantuan new deal with Paramount, which promises the UFC a spectacular $7.7 billion over seven years. True to form, the 56-year-old promoter was touting his next project, which would be surreal, unprecedented and maybe entirely predictable: A major UFC card of mixed-martial arts—blood and sweat presumably included—at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. They'd do it right there on the South Lawn, home to Marine One landings and gentle Easter egg rolls. 'We have a lot of land there," President Trump said in July. The event would be part of the country's 250th anniversary celebration in 2026. 'Probably on CBS," White said, which will surely thrill new Paramount owner and CBS caretaker David Ellison, even if it makes the ghost of Edward R. Murrow reach again for his trusty pack of Camels. How can anyone be shocked? By now, the UFC's assimilation into the culture—or perhaps, the culture's assimilation into the UFC—is old news. Once a rogue in the corner, demonized by politicians, the UFC today is the preferred sport of a chief executive who flocks to fights with close associates, neo-emperors drawn to spandexed gladiators. The UFC is a global behemoth, a pillar of a publicly traded company, about to wrap a $550 million a year deal with Disney's ESPN. Now it moves to Skydance acquisition Paramount, home to '60 Minutes" and Masters golf. Multiple media players wanted a piece of the UFC's future, White said. Consideration was given to splitting the events among several carriers, as the NFL and NBA have done, until Paramount intervened, he said. 'Last minute, these guys came in and said, 'You know what? We don't want to share. We want it all.'" White said. Under the new arrangement, a Paramount+ streaming service subscriber will have exclusive access to all UFC fights—including premium ones that historically required additional fees via 'pay-per-view." Selected fights will also be simulcast on CBS. 'What I do love about [the deal] is that the product is much more affordable for everybody," White said. The move means UFC will bid adieu to its high-profile deal with ESPN. White and Disney may have started as odd partners, but White often raved about the impact when the sports giant's brand and personalities got behind his events and fighters. I asked if he worried about losing that ESPN fire hose of attention. 'No," he said. 'It's part of growing. We said goodbye to Spike. We said goodbye to Fox. And now, ESPN." Did the Paramount+ subscription deal mark an end to pay-per-view in sports? White—who's also promoting the upcoming Canelo Alvarez-Terence Crawford fight on Netflix—pooh-poohed the suggestion. 'You get the right fight with the right guys at the right time, it could be a pay-per-view," he said. Unlike most major sports, the UFC doesn't have an athletes union; fighters are independent contractors. When I asked if the megadeal could motivate UFC fighters to organize in order to collectively bargain, White deflected. 'I can tell you this—since day one, fighter pay just continues to go up," he said. 'Every new deal we get, it's definitely good for the fighters. What's obvious is that the UFC sits at the grown-ups table in televised sports. The deal makes the UFC an essential partner of Paramount+ under the Ellison era, joining SpongeBob and all those horsey Taylor Sheridan dramas. David Ellison attended fights in the run-up to the acquisition, and Ellison's father, Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison, is a longtime fan, White said. 'He's been to many fights," White said of Larry Ellison. Still, nobody's attended anything like what the UFC's planning for the president and the 250th birthday celebration. 'Fighters will be warming up in the White House," White says. 'It's incredible." There are logistical challenges, White said. 'My Octagon is like 25,000 pounds," he said. A UFC card typically packs a stadium, but seating could be limited. 'I don't give a s—if there's only one seat at this thing," White said. 'This is so monumental and historical and just such a cool thing. All I care about is the Octagon on the lawn and the fight happening with the backdrop being the White House and the Washington Monument." Were UFC fighters already clamoring for the gig?'Hell yes," White said. So there you go. Dana White has a giant new TV deal and White House match on the way. When I first heard about it, I naively thought: no way that's happening. Of course it's happening. Write to Jason Gay at

Veteran Quarterback Russell Wilson leads the New York Giants but NFL defensive coaches warn: 'He is just declining'
Russell Wilson suits up as the New York Giants' starter but not all in the league believe he's still got what it takes. New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen made quarterback decisions a key focus of the NFL offseason, bringing in veteran quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston while also drafting rookie Jaxson Dart from Ole Miss. For now, the kudos go to Wilson — he's been named the starter as the Giants prepare to open the season against the Washington Commanders. However, some NFL defensive coordinators believe Wilson's heyday is behind him, questioning whether he can still be the dynamic playmaker he once was. Russell Wilson brings experience but critics believe his best days may be behind him Russell Wilson comes in at 36 years old, with a career that includes ten Pro Bowl selections and a Super Bowl victory. His leadership inside the locker room is as good as it gets. But his performance has dropped enough that a recent The Athletic poll ranked him in Tier 4, placing him 26th among NFL quarterbacks. One defensive coordinator, in terms of anonymity, said, 'He can still do some things, but I think he is just declining. Some of the throws he was good at are not there for him anymore… Even his deep throws were like airball stuff, hoping George Pickens makes a play.' Another added, 'What he had that was magical about him – the ability to create plays on the move – is gone.' Training camp shows some sparks and coaches still trust the experience he brings to the field Wilson has, however, flashed glimpses of his old play during training camp. One head coach offered a rather balanced view, 'He has pelts on the wall for two-minute offense, and you have to give him credit for that. I think he is a legitimate starter. I wish he would play better, but he's been in three offenses in the last three years. You know how that goes.' For now, Wilson seems comfortable with head coach Brian Daboll and has built a good connection with offensive coordinator Mike Kafka, who are both counting on him this season. The path ahead for Russell Wilson and the New York Giants remains uncertain For now, the Giants are leaning on Wilson's veteran presence to lead the offense, with Winston and Dart available in the wings if things don't click. If Wilson can consistently deliver, New York might have found stability. If not, fans may soon demand a change. Also read : Fans feel Travis Kelce's 13th NFL season will be ruined because of Taylor Swift Can Russell Wilson once again command the field and steer the Giants through the full 17-game regular season?
