Since it was announced that the White House will host a  UFC event on its  grounds next summer in commemoration the America 250 celebration marking the 250th anniversary of the Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence, several fighters have lobbied to be on the fight card.  One of the most high-profile fighters that’s  pushed the hardest to be part of the historic event has been former two-division champion  Jon Jones .  UFC CEO  Dana White has all but  closed the door on Jones competing at the White House citing it being too big of a ‘risk.’  “I can’t risk putting him (Jones) in big positions, in a big spot and have something go wrong,” said White during the UFC 318 Post-Fight Press Conference on July 19. “Especially the White House card.” Jones has an unlikely ally in his pursuit to fight at the White House, fellow former two-division UFC titleholder and rival  Daniel Cormier .
