Top billing on White House card Gaethje will unify the UFC Lightweight Championship against Ilia Topuria in the main event of the UFC White House card scheduled for June 14.

Impact Gaethje made the right career move by holding out for a title shot, and he was able to get just that in a high-profile fight against Paddy Pimblett, earning the belt for the second time in his career. However, both times the belt has had the "interim" tag, but he'll have a chance to erase that here. It's undoubtedly going to be a tall task against a fighter like Topuria, and the early betting odds reflect that, with Gaethje opening up as the biggest underdog on the card. Topuria has been one of the most dominant fighters in recent memory. He's a perfect 17-0 as a professional, 9-0 with the UFC, and is riding a six-fight streak of post-fight bonuses that contains five finishes. Gaethje technically has advantages in height, reach and striking volume, but he's arguably on the final stretch of his career a the age of 37. His calling card has been to subject himself to damage in order to land his own offense -- a skill set that typically doesn't age well, and likely explains the betting lines. That being said, an American-born fighter pulling one of the biggest upsets in UFC history on the White House front lawn would be an all-time storyline for the company.
