While millions of Americans tuned in to watch Saturday night’s UFC fight between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier former President Donald Trump attended the event in person. While ESPN opted to appeal to the left and decided not to air footage of Trump entering the UFC arena the sight was something to behold. Once Trump entered the arena the crowd immediately began chanting “U-S-A!”

The Daily Wire reports:

Before the fight, UFC President Dana White told TMZ that Trump would be placed by the octagon for the main event, even though the risk of hearing boos from the crowd was high.

“He don’t care,” White said of Trump. “He’s not that guy. He’s not hiding in a box somewhere.”

…

The UFC — and White — go about their business much differently than other sports leagues. While the NBA, NFL and MLB have all made moves in order to appeal to the Left, the UFC has gone in the opposite direction. They don’t care what side of the political aisle you’re on. In fact, White has no intention of telling his athletes how they should think.

“It’s what we do, whether all this craziness is going on or not, that’s how we run our show,” White told The Daily Wire when asked how the UFC has managed to stay out of politics. “The other thing is, we don’t put a muzzle on anyone. We don’t tell people what they can and cannot talk about. Imagine working for a company and they’re telling you to believe this.”
