FOX News Channel\u2019s Special Report with Bret Baier<\/a>. White also shared a collection of stunning renderings of what UFC and Trump have planned. Some of the photos don\u2019t even look real, but according to White everything is expected to be constructed over the next nine months.<\/p>\n\u201cWell, we\u2019re still playing with that,\u201d said White when asked how many people he plans to host at the one-of-one event. \u201cIt\u2019s going to be under 5,000 people. You know, it depends on — on how much the lawn can hold. You know, as far as weight, the octagon itself weighs 15,000 pounds. So we don\u2019t know. We\u2019re still working it out. And — and my vision for this thing is we have this big arch, as you can see, with the lighting grid. Because what I want is the White House in the back. And then when you shoot — when the fight goes around to the other side, you\u2019ll see the Washington Monument in the background\u2026Yeah, we can fit 85,000 people over there. We\u2019re going to have a stage where music — you know, we\u2019ll have bands playing all day. And then people will be able to bring blankets and, you know, lay around and watch the fights. We\u2019ll have — we\u2019ll have screens up everywhere for everybody. We\u2019re literally going to take over Washington, D.C., that week. We\u2019re going to do the weigh-ins there. We\u2019re going to have…That\u2019s what we\u2019re talking about, yeah. And — and we\u2019ll have fan events all week. We\u2019re going to do our expo there. And just a total Washington, D.C., takeover.\u201d<\/p>\n
