The UFC White House lineup unexpectedly grew during Saturday night’s event in Miami.

Shortly after undefeated heavyweight Josh Hokit beat Curtis Blaydes at UFC 327 in one in all the division’s craziest fights of all time, his next fight was quickly announced.

Hokit will face Derrick Lewis because the seventh fight to hitch the White House card on June 14. That got here together after President Donald Trump, who was in attendance on the recent event, questioned why ‘The Black Beast’ was not scheduled to compete on the event.

Based on the UFC president, only Trump still has the ability so as to add to the cardboard in Washington D.C.

Use one word to explain Josh Hokit👇🏼

Josh Hokit is widely thought to be one in all the cringiest fighters on the roster, but what do you’re thinking that of him?😬

Dana White says Donald Trump can add recent fighters to the UFC White House card

The reveal of the total UFC White House card split opinion in March, with many underwhelmed by the six fights and the dearth of giant stars like Conor McGregor and Jon Jones.

Adding an entertaining heavyweight clash between the eyebrow-raising Hokit and the UFC’s all-time leader in knockouts has boosted the cardboard within the eyes of many.

There are various names fans would still prefer to be added, but Dana White says only the US leader has the ability to elongate the lineup.

“Apart from that fight, is there any probability that anymore fights might be added? No, I shouldn’t have done this one,” White said at his UFC 327 press conference.

“When the president looks at you and says, ‘Why is Derrick Lewis not on the cardboard?’ You set Derrick Lewis on the cardboard immediately.

“Unless he (Trump) calls me and tells me to do something else, there shall be no more fights added to the cardboard.

“I definitely hope (there aren’t more fighters he wants on the White House). But anything is feasible,” he added.

Hokit will now be bringing his controversial and polarizing schtick to fight week within the US capital this June, where the likes of Ilia Topuria, Justin Gaethje, Alex Pereira, and Sean O’Malley may even be in motion.

‘The Incredible Hok’ can have his eyes on the interim heavyweight title fight between Pereira and Ciryl Gane within the co-main event should he get the higher of Lewis to cement his place in contention.
