MIAMI, Fla. — President Trump took part in the Ultimate Combat Championship (UFC) event on Saturday, where executive officials and groups of allies joined him.
Trump entered the floor of the Caseyar Center for a loud cheer, followed by UFC CEO Dana White and his granddaughter, Kite Rump.
The president is joined by Octagon adviser Elon Musk, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, FBI director Kash Patel, Director of National Intelligence Tarsi Gabbard, Director of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Director of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
The event was expected in the featherweight championship fight between Alexander Volkanovsky and Diego Lopez.
Trump has become something of a regular in UFC games. The president has a long-standing friendship with UFC CEO Dana White. Many fighters participating in the UFC event have publicly expressed support for Trump, including the Octagon.
The president was a crowd favorite on Friday and appeared to be some of the fighter jets' favorites. When Trump entered the arena, the crowd chanted “America.” When Trump was shown to dance to “YMCA,” it cheered with approval. And one fighter, Dominic Reyes, walked to the octagonal side to recognize Trump after winning his match.
Trump had so far travelled to his second term only to his property. When he is not traveling to his property, he is primarily involved in sporting events.
The president attended the Super Bowl and Daytona 500 in February. He too I attended The NCAA Wrestling Championship took place in Pennsylvania in March.
