UFC Freedom 250 Headliners Meet President Trump, USA Belt Unveiled

UFC Freedom 250 comes next month on June 14, 2026 on a special Sunday event. Headlining the card will be Ilia Topuria vs. Justin Gaethje for the UFC Lightweight Championship. In the co-main event, Alex Pereira and Ciryl Gane will battle for the UFC Interim-Heavyweight Championship.

Today, all four headliners met President Trump at the White House and accompanied him in the Oval Office where Trump put over the magnitude of each fighter. A comparative USA UFC Championship belt was also revealed, but it’s unclear if this is a comparative piece for Trump, or other plans are in tow for the title.
