Donald Trump At UFC 299 Draws Major Applause; Trump Links Up With NFL Stars Joe Burrow, Nick Bosa

Sports fans go wild for The Don.

UFC 299 in Miami, FL., was a hit, and one of the stars to capture the spotlight was former U.S. President Donald Trump.

And there's no question that the left hates this.

WATCH & LISTEN:

Trump went around giving handshakes and even linked up with elite NFL guys like Joe Burrow and Nick Bosa. Former Titans offensive lineman Taylor Lewan loomed in the background. Trump also crossed paths with Barstool owner Dave Portnoy.

As OutKick's Clay Travis noted on X, the MMA-hungry crowds at Kaseya Center loved Trump's cameo. Sleepy Joe could never muster this kind of hype even with the media in the palm of his crinkled hand.

"Trump got a monster reception last night at UFC 299. UFC fans love him. Here he is with Burrow and Bosa," Clay posted.

WATCH:

Sure, liberal sites and talking heads like Charles Barkley would like to bash Bosa, Burrow and the others for interacting with Trump, but any real sports fan found the team-up of star power at least entertaining. How could someone get mad at that … really, any event full of fans who care about nothing but sports tend to go crazy for this guy.

There's something to be appreciated about the UFC's love for Trump. Some "F*** Joe Biden" chants even broke out.

Dana White is a known friend of Trump's and fighters openly express their support for The Don, unlike other pros leagues that cower at the potential backlash. 

Some of the fiercest but kindest warriors on the planet all turn into fans when No. 45 is in the building.
