This fight is being considered by UFC matchmakers as the main event of a historic tournament planned for June 14. The event will take place on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington and will be the first professional sports event of this level on this territory.
It is worth noting that Topuria recently concluded a legal process with his ex-wife Georgina Uzcategui: the parties reached an out-of-court agreement, she withdrew the complaint of mistreatment, and the divorce and custody issues over their daughter were settled on terms originally proposed by the fighter.
