UFC's newly released design for its June 14 White House cage match drew swift online ridicule after images of the Freedom 250 setup circulated over the weekend.
Construction was underway Monday, with two cranes lifting a metal lighting arch over the stage while work continued on a ballroom tied to the event.
The show is being staged to mark the nation's 250th birthday and President Donald Trump's 80th birthday, giving critics a larger political target than the venue design alone.
Posts on X mocked the spectacle and timing, with some users joking about rain and others criticizing the event against a backdrop of war, inflation and energy costs.

With 100,000 spectators nearby, what new security plan can safeguard the White House during such a massive event?
