One of the most recognizable lawns in the world is nearly ready for fight night. The UFC Octagon is in place outside the White House for the "UFC Freedom 250" celebration on June 14th — which is also President Trump's birthday. Preparations have been underway for weeks, including the installation of a roughly 90-foot-tall steel arch, dubbed the "claw." The event is expected to attract 4,000 spectators.
