Trump’s birthday plan to turn the White House South Lawn into an Ultimate Fighting Championship cage match now includes erecting an arena on the historic property—and holding the weigh-ins at the Lincoln Memorial.

Trump, a longtime fan of the UFC and its CEO, Dana White, had already been planning an extravagant, tacky event before confirming Monday that an arena is officially in the works.

“They’re building an arena, the great Dana White is building an arena,” Trump told reporters at the Kennedy Center Honors Monday night.

“The biggest fights they’ve ever had,’’ Trump said. “Every one’s a championship fight. And every one’s a legendary type of fight.”
