UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev said he wants to participate in an event held at the White House, but his team does not agree to this.
Idman.Biz reports that the UFC event at the White House will take place on June 14.
"This is a big event at the White House. This is the biggest event in the organization's history, or one of the biggest. I would like to fight there, but my team doesn't support this idea that much. Habib and I still have to sit down and talk. He said in an interview somewhere that he doesn't want me to fight there.
Why? I don't know. Maybe the date is not suitable. We haven't discussed this yet. I think it would be great if the date was fighting in that building. This may be the first and last time.
Of course, the UFC is interested in me. But there will be seven or eight more title fights. This date is ideal for me - immediately after Ramadan," Makhachev said.
