Former President Donald Trump made a splash at the UFC 299 event in Miami this past Saturday. Trump’s presence at the event caught everyone’s attention, especially when he reacted to Dustin Poirier’s bloody knockout victory over Benoit Saint-Denis.
During a co-feature fight before the main event, Trump was seen reacting with applause and excitement as he witnessed Poirier’s impressive victory. The former president, who is rumored to be considering a return to office in the upcoming elections, was one of the main attractions at the event.
Poirier’s victory against Saint-Denis came as a surprise to many in the MMA world. After a recent defeat to Justin Gaethje, Poirier was able to bounce back with a second-round knockout win over the former French anti-terrorist soldier.
The fight started with Saint-Denis taking control of the octagon with powerful kicks, but Poirier showed his skill by defending against takedown attempts. Despite receiving some powerful blows, Poirier managed to turn the tide and eventually knocked out his opponent with a big right hand.
The exciting fight and Trump’s presence at the event added to the overall buzz surrounding UFC 299 in Miami. Fans and observers are now eagerly anticipating what the future holds for both Poirier and Trump in their respective fields.
