The future development of any sport is always exciting for fans, sparking wild ideas about what could come next, how things can be improved, and where the sport should go. Recently, the UFC has been relatively quiet, with not much buzz. So when the company announced that UFC boss Dana White would be going live to make a big announcement, fans couldn’t help but fuel the hype with their wild theories.
On X, the official UFC handle dropped an exciting post: “DANA ANNOUNCEMENT INCOMING! The Boss Man (@DanaWhite) will be going LIVE on Instagram later today.” This announcement immediately sent fans into a frenzy, sparking wild speculation across social media. With UFC’s recent quiet period, everyone is eager to know what major news White will unveil, and the anticipation is palpable and everyone shared their own theories to this.
One fan seems he’s unhappy with UFC HW champ as he said, “Jones vs Aspinall booked or stripping Jon Jones. One or the other. Dont care which at this point.”

One fan feels it’s either Jones’ announcement, broadcast deal, or Islam Makhachev vs. JDM fight announcement. In his words, “Jones News. Broadcast deal. UFC 317 announcement. Australia vs. Russia card.”
