UFC® Names World Liberty Financial Official Partner of UFC® FREEDOM 250

World Liberty Financial to Create $250,000 Athlete Bonus Pool for Performance of the Night Winners

UFC®, the world’s premier mixed martial arts organization, today announced that World Liberty Financial (WLFI), an American financial technology company building products at the intersection of decentralized and traditional finance, will join as an Official Partner of UFC® FREEDOM 250, the historic event taking place on the grounds of the White House in Washington, D.C., this Sunday, June 14.

World Liberty Financial will play a key role in UFC® FREEDOM 250 as the Presenting Partner of a new $250,000 Performance of the Night bonus pool, which will be awarded to UFC athletes selected for standout performances during the event.

The bonuses will be paid in USD1, World Liberty Financial's U.S. dollar-backed, compliant stablecoin and one of the fastest-growing stablecoins on the market. USD1 bonuses will be awarded in addition to the traditional Performance of the Night bonuses presented to athletes by UFC President and CEO Dana White following the event. The USD1 payout will be awarded independently of the previously announced Crypto.com $1 million bonus pool, which goes to the two athletes who compete in the Fight of the Night.
