WH South Lawn Adds UFC Arena to Its Colorful History

Summary

Towering above the White House, the 92-foot tall "Claw" hovering above the fight ring is taller than the actual executive mansion. Scaffolding under the mixed martial arts arena holds up roughly 4,000 seats. The octagon itself is bedecked with ads from corporate sponsors, including Polymarket, the law firm Morgan & Morgan, nicotine pouches, crypto companies, and Bud Light. At night, beams of light from the structure shoot across the Washington skyline, visible for miles around.
