Trump Arrives at UFC 316, Crowd Cheers 'USA!'

President Trump made a grand, heavyweight-style entrance to the UFC 316 fight Saturday night in New Jersey, sending the crowd into a frenzy of “USA!” chants.

The commander in chief walked ringside at the Prudential Center with UFC CEO Dana White scored to the Kid Rock song “ American Badass.”

Trump greeted several celebrities in attendance including former World Heavyweight Champion Boxer Mike Tyson and UFC announcer Joe Rogan.

Several seemingly random civilians in the crowd also received glad-hands from the president during his pomp-filled arrival.

Also in attendance Saturday were First Daughter Ivanka Trump, First Son Eric Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Acting Attorney for the State of New Jersey Alina Habba.

I used to like the Heavyweights, and I like Tai Chi, but I really don't care for these skinny little men in their little shorts. Something about it I fine very unappealing!

No offense meant. It's probably because I don't have a wide screen TV. I'm just used to fighters looking like Ali, Frazer, etc. Also, as I said, I like Tai Chi, but that's a discipline the UFC probably incorporates into their training. I'm sure you remember, The Rumble in the Jungle. The Earth Shook when they walked into the ring. The only two sports, that I think have noticeably improved, are Golf and Basketball.
