Ultimate Fighting Championship President Dana White paid a visit to the White House on Tuesday to see his old pal, U.S. President Donald Trump, and came bearing a UFC championship belt.
A photo emerged later in the week of the two men, who were all smiles as a piece of UFC gold adorned the President’s desk. While it may seem out of the blue, the two share quite the history together, with Trump carrying the UFC through it’s darkest days, at a time when the promotion had extreme difficulty in finding venues willing to host the then-controversial sport of mixed martial arts.
