Oscar De La Hoya has once again targeted Dana White, this time over the upcoming UFC Freedom 250 event scheduled to take place on the South Lawn of the White House. The boxing legend and promoter questioned the legality of the event and claimed it raises serious concerns about politics, business interests, and the use of public property. His comments come as a lawsuit seeks to stop the event from going ahead.The controversy has grown just days before the show is set to take place in Washington, D.C. Critics argue that a private sports promotion should not be held on White House grounds. Supporters, including Dana White, insist the event is part of celebrations marking America’s 250th anniversary. With legal action underway and public debate intensifying, UFC Freedom 250 has become one of the most talked-about combat sports events of the year.Oscar De La Hoya questions the legality of UFC White House eventSpeaking on his online show, Oscar De La Hoya criticized Dana White and TKO Group over the planned event. He claimed concerns about the promotion’s influence and decision-making run deeper than many people realize. The former world champion said he believes the legal challenge against the event raises legitimate questions that deserve public attention.The lawsuit was filed by retired Air Force sergeant and Vietnam War veteran Paul Romano, along with civic activist Susan Douglas. According to the complaint, federal rules generally do not allow private sporting events on government-controlled parklands such as the White House South Lawn. The plaintiffs argue that exceptions linked to America’s 250th anniversary only apply to events organized by government bodies.The filing also challenges the planned installation of the UFC’s large production structure known as “the Claw.” The lawsuit claims such a structure may require additional approval before being placed on protected federal land. It further argues that taxpayers could end up covering repair costs if the property is damaged during the event.De La Hoya also pointed to reports that President Donald Trump purchased shares in TKO Holding Group after the White House card was announced. He suggested the situation could create questions about potential conflicts of interest. In addition, he criticized plans to use the Lincoln Memorial for promotional activities, arguing that historic national landmarks should be treated with greater care and respect.Despite the criticism, Dana White has defended UFC Freedom 250. The UFC president says the event is designed to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary and bring people together. He has rejected claims that the card is politically motivated and insists the focus remains on honoring the country through a unique sporting event.With only days remaining before fight night, attention now turns to the ongoing lawsuit and whether it could impact the future of the historic event.
