Donald Trump’s presence is not new during UFC events. However, surprisingly showing up amidst several legal troubles was not expected of him by fans. Despite Trump’s troubles with the law, it is unlikely to affect his welcome among fans. The former President is used to getting loud cheers during his attendance.
