Former President Donald Trump made a notable appearance at a UFC fight in Newark, New Jersey, following his recent guilty verdict on 34 counts. Trump, a familiar face in the UFC world, attended the fight shortly after his conviction in a Manhattan criminal trial for falsifying business records.
The crowd at the New Jersey Arena warmly welcomed Trump, with the announcer acknowledging the significant round of applause he received. Trump, accompanied by UFC President Dana White, interacted with supporters in the audience as he made his way through the arena to watch the main event outside the octagon.
During the evening, MMA fighter Sean Strickland, after his victory over Paolo Costa, expressed support for Trump, stating, 'President Trump, you're the man, bro. It is a damn travesty what they're doing to you.'
Trump's legal team has already begun discussing potential grounds for an appeal of the conviction. One of the points raised includes concerns about Judge Juan Marchand and his perceived political affiliations, particularly his daughter's ties to the Democratic party.
