Former champion Conor McGregor is finally making his much-anticipated return, with an expected reward that is absolutely huge. McGregor has not fought inside the UFC octagon for four long years, and chose to focus on expanding his global business empire.
During this time, with lucrative deals and a luxurious lifestyle, many fans and analysts heavily doubted his return to fighting. Recently, the Irish fighter revealed his potential payout for the White House event or at the very least, an amount he expects his payout to be.

McGregor has consistently remained the biggest attraction in MMA, headlining record-breaking UFC pay-per-views and drawing unmatched global attention. His biggest payday came when he earned over $100 million in the boxing crossover bout against Floyd Mayweather in 2017. That historic event became the second most-grossing combat sports spectacle ever, generating more than $600 million in total revenue.

Nevertheless, Dana White plans something similar for the White House card, believing it could become the most stacked card ever. The unique event aims to surpass Noche UFC’s record-breaking success from last year while providing fans with unforgettable top-level MMA. Recently, White revealed stunning visual renderings of the planned card, instantly generating hype and excitement among passionate UFC fans.
The Octagon will be set directly on the White House lawn, with strict safety protocols limiting capacity to 5,000. Dana White also plans to accommodate another 85,000 fans watching live action on massive screens across the extended park. Nevertheless, this occasion presents the perfect opportunity for Conor McGregor’s highly anticipated comeback, and Dana White remains confident about it.
Apart from consistently training for the White House event, the Irishman confirmed his opponent will be none other than Michael Chandler. Although the main event for the White House event is not official, the pairing of Chandler and McGregor will see an American fighter headlining the event.
The two superstars share an intense rivalry that began during TUF Season 31, and can resolve their unfinished business in this monumental main event. Earlier, the promotion wanted UFC 303 as the venue to conclude this rivalry. Now, Chandler strongly believes his clash with McGregor carries the potential to become the single greatest fight in the entire UFC history after UFC 303 main event cancelation.
Conor McGregor to share the White House main event with Ilia Topuria?
Michael Chandler possesses the trash-talking skills to match Conor McGregor, ensuring their rivalry creates an electrifying and entertaining spectacle. However, Chandler’s UFC career momentum is overshadowed by consecutive losses, leading many fans to question his legitimacy as McGregor’s opponent.

As for the ‘Notorious,’ superstar opponents are never in short supply, given his numerous ongoing beefs across multiple weight divisions. One of McGregor’s most recent disputes involves pound-for-pound king Ilia Topuria, with whom he exchanged several heated verbal altercations.
From previously being a fan, Topuria has turned his back on the ‘Mystic Mac’ and mocked him for ruining his legacy. Recently, the reigning lightweight champion shocked everyone by hinting at his potential involvement in the White House event.

Topuria is a knockout sensation, boasting an incredible streak that includes victories over legendary fighters like Alexander Volkanovski, Max Holloway, and Charles Oliveira. The fighter has frequently faced criticism for imitating McGregor, from his flashy lifestyle choices to his relentless trash-talking.
‘El Matador’ has also expressed a serious interest in moving up a division, sparking fan anticipation about new matchups becoming reality. A fight against Conor McGregor next would not be surprising, especially considering how financially lucrative such a matchup could be.
