Alarm bells sound across the combat sports world. Several outlets now reveal that Dana White is ready with a string of announcements. With the year’s third Fight Night and marquee event—UFC 326—lined up for this weekend and the week after, reports have now led to a frenzy, with many assuming White may share some key details of the much-anticipated UFC 327 scheduled in April.

“Dana White is making fight announcements Friday on IG Live!!” read UFC’s official post on X. “What fights are you hoping to see?”

Still, that didn’t stop others from throwing out wild guesses. With days passing, the UFC is inching closer to one of its biggest and perhaps most historic events – the White House card. The details regarding the fights set to feature at the event remain unclear.

Outside of the mega event, anticipation looms over the potential return of some of the biggest stars in the franchise, including champions Ilia Topuria and Khamzat Chimaev. Their comeback fights and possible matchups continue to heighten tension.

Meanwhile, given its proximity to April 12, the eagerness surrounding the UFC 327 card appears more reasonable. With Joshua Van’s first title defense on the line, the show pits contenders from across divisions against one another. However, what it currently lacks are the names that would headline it.

The uncertainty deepened after Dana White‘s recent remarks, where, following initial reluctance, he appeared open to champion Alex Pereira moving up a weight class. Here’s how some of the fans and users reacted to the suspense-filled update.

Speculation erupts ahead of Dana White’s big reveal

One fan could barely curb their excitement. “They (are) announcing the main event of UFC 327,” they wrote. With Joshua Van vs. Tatsuro Taira reportedly set as the co-main event, fans eagerly await the pair lined up to headline the heavily stacked event.

Another user echoed similar sentiments, saying, “It’s gonna be the main event for 327 and some fight night cards guaranteed, or if we are lucky, he announces 328.” Reports indicate 8 fights are currently featured on the card set to unfold at Kaseya Center in Miami. But White’s upcoming announcement could open the door to bigger changes.

Still, a few speculated that, with the year touching the end of the first quarter, it could be time for something grand: “Part of me thinks White House cuz he’s announcing the live a day early. But (probably) 327 Main, which is still hype.”

One fan sounded absolutely certain and said, “It’s the White House card.” With just 3 months before the historic showdown unfolds at the presidential residence, White may reveal a few, if not all, details to keep the hype and the tension charged.

One user took a wild guess. They said, “Is he going to announce fighters that headline PPVs get 15 million dollars?” The hint is clear; they are talking about Conor Benn, Dana White’s latest star recruit for Zuffa Boxing. The welterweight boxer left Matchroom Boxing for a one-fight deal for a $15 million payout.

But their comments could be a broader take on fighter pay issues.

Given the range of takes, it’s clear the mood has changed and the anticipation is at an all-time high for what White is going to say next. Irrespective of what it’s going to be about, most fans understand that it’s going to be something significant that could have major implications on the sport in the months to come.
