Donald Trump Tagged ‘Greatest Fighter of All Time’ By UFC CEO Dana White: Reports
There’s a reason the UFC community is so into Donald Trump. The former president often appears at UFC events and is never shy about showing his love for the fighters he supports. Whether it’s Khabib Nurmagomedov or other favorites, Trump always takes the opportunity to show his love for them. His consistent presence and love for the sport keep fans buzzing and make him a notable figure in the UFC world. Meanwhile, his close friend Dana White has called him the greatest fighter ever.
Dana White has long touted Jon Jones as the UFC’s greatest fighter, but recently, he’s shifted the spotlight to his longtime friend, Donald Trump. In a recent Fox News interview, White declared Trump the greatest fighter, not for his skills in the octagon, but for his resilience and how he’s confronted numerous challenges throughout his life. White’s comments underscore his admiration for Trump’s resilience and tenacity, labeling him as a fighter in the broader sense.
He said, “Take any of the greatest fighters of all time, [Donald] Trump is number one. The most resilient human being that I have ever met.”
How did Dana White and Donald Trump Build Their Unexpected friendship and bond with UFC stars?
The UFC boss and Trump have been tight for years, with White often speaking at his rallies. Their bond started back in the early 2000s when Trump let the UFC host events during a tough time with regulations. Since then, Trump has always had the UFC’s back, showing up at PPV events and getting big cheers from the crowd.
The way he hypes up fighters like Colby Covington after wins makes him a favorite, even with Khabib’ The Eagle’ Nurmagomedov. His unfiltered style, just like the sport, also earns him respect from UFC stars.
As White mentioned, their friendship goes back 25 years. For those who don’t know, Trump’s former casino and hotel in Atlantic City hosted UFC 31 and UFC 32, showing his support when many others rejected the idea. That’s why the UFC community has every reason to appreciate him.
