This weekend marks a historic event for the UFC. Several fighters will participate in matches on the White House lawn as part of UFC Freedom 250 Celebrations.
This fight card takes place on Sunday, June 14 at 8 p.m. ET. Paramount+ will provide coverage when 14 fighters show up at The White House lawn.
However, Polymarket traders have some concerns. They believe the weather could potentially disrupt the schedule. The chance of a weather delay is at 50% as of mid-afternoon on June 10, but the chance was at 72% earlier in the day.
The WeatherUnderground view tend to agree with Polymarket traders. The hourly forecast calls for a mix of showers and thunderstorms starting at 2 PM ET and lasts overnight.

UFC CEO Dana White is well aware of the weather. However, he has proclaimed that these matches will take place as planned.
“I mean, if you read the internet, the whole show is going to be shut down on Sunday,” White told members of the media on Tuesday. “But I don’t care if it’s snowing, raining, whatever, we’re walking — and even lightning.
“You all played sports growing up—when there was lightning, you put the lightning out, and when it was over, you played. That’s what we’re going to do. And if there was going to be lightning, we’d know days before and then we’d work around it.”
The weather is not the only focal point for Polymarket traders. They have several other props to highlight in the days leading up to Sunday night’s big event.
For example, traders focus on President Donald Trump. A prop focuses on the color of tie he will wear during the big event at the White House. Another prop focuses on whether he will dance, something he has done at several other events over the years.
