On June 14, 2026, President Donald Trump marked his 80th birthday with a unique spectacle: a UFC tournament hosted directly on the South Lawn of the White House.
2026年6月14日，唐納·川普總統以一場獨特的盛會慶祝了他的80歲生日：在白宮南草坪直接舉辦了一場UFC錦標賽。
The centerpiece was a massive, 92-foot-tall temporary steel arena dubbed "The Claw," which accommodated approximately 4,000 spectators, many of whom were U.S. military members.
活動的核心是一座高達92英尺的臨時鋼鐵競技場，名為「利爪」，可容納約4000名觀眾，其中許多是美國軍方人員。
Beyond the White House gates, roughly 125,000 fans watched the action on giant screens placed throughout the National Mall.
在白宮門外，約有12.5萬名粉絲透過放置在國家廣場各處的巨型螢幕觀看賽事。
While the event highlighted President Trump's well-documented affinity for mixed martial arts and his friendship with UFC head Dana White, it was not without controversy.
雖然這場活動突顯了川普總統對綜合格鬥的喜好，以及他與UFC總裁達娜·懷特的友誼，但它並非沒有爭議。
Critics questioned the optics of holding a $60 million for-profit sporting event at the White House during a time of international conflict and economic strain.
批評人士質疑在國際衝突和經濟壓力時期，於白宮舉辦一場耗資6000萬美元的營利性體育賽事在觀感上的不妥。
Despite legal challenges, a federal judge allowed the production to proceed, citing no grounds for a blockade.
儘管面臨法律挑戰，聯邦法官仍允許製作繼續進行，理由是沒有阻擋的依據。
Supporters viewed the event as a bold celebration of American athletes, while opponents argued it signaled a significant breach of presidential decorum.
支持者將此活動視為對美國運動員的大膽慶祝，而反對者則認為這標誌著嚴重破壞了總統禮儀。
