A sold-out crowd went berserk as former President Donald Trump entered the stadium for the UFC bout on Saturday night at the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida. Trump is the likely Republican contender for president in 2024.
The audience went crazy as Trump entered the arena with UFC president Dana White and walk-in music provided by the event organizers.
When Trump emerged, the audience yelled “USA!” and “Fuck Joe Biden!” according to several reporters:
In recent years, Trump has frequently made appearances at UFC events and is a fervent supporter of the sport.
Early in the day, Trump and his followers had a rally in Georgia, where they faced off against Democratic President Joe Biden, who was also conducting a campaign. Biden’s rally drew a small audience, compared to thousands attending Trump’s.

The Atlanta Journal Constitution reports that barely “dozens” attended Biden’s Atlanta engagement. In the meantime, hundreds of people saw Trump in Rome, Georgia, according to the Northwest Georgia News.
After winning handily on Super Tuesday, Trump sealed the GOP nomination for president and assumed the mantle of frontrunner for the third consecutive presidential contest earlier this week. In contrast, analysts concur that Biden’s speech to Congress on Thursday night was the most contentious and polarizing State of the Union address in recent memory.
