Dana White, the CEO of UFC, responded to the criticism of the tournament that will take place at the White House. Many journalists and fans believe that the tournament will be too politicized.

"George Bush was a fan of baseball, Obama was a fan of the NBA, and Trump is a fan of the UFC. I don't think the fact that any of them were fans made any sport too politicized," Bloomberg quotes White.
