It was the event of the year: The fight between Conor McGregor and Justin Poirier in Las Vegas. Among the more than 20,000 spectators in the Octagon was a very special guest of honor: Donald Trump enjoyed the fight and finally let the audience celebrate again.
Donald Trump was probably the most famous guest of honor among the 20,062 spectators in the T-Mobile Arena Las Vegas. More than the exciting fight between Conor McGregor and Justin Poirier, the former US president apparently enjoyed the audience’s attention.
Donald Trump at the UFC fight – audience cheers and boos
The audience in the gigantic T-Mobile arena cheered, booed and roared for five minutes when Donald Trump entered the building 44 minutes before the start of the great fight for the Ultimate Fighting Champion on Saturday evening.

Donald Trump sat near Justin Bieber, Mel Gibson, Megan Fox
Although Donald Trump did not get the best seat in the octagonal arena – a post obstructed his field of vision – he looked in a good mood. And he was in good company. Singer Justin Bieber sat only three seats next to him. As reported by “Bild”, the teen star got up and left the gallery shortly after Trump sat down. Mel Gibson, Kourtney Kardashian, Dave Chapelle, Megan Fox and Kit Harrington were also in the audience.
And Trump’s protection was also provided. Six men in dark suits sat near the former Commander in Chiefs and watched him with eagle eyes. During the breaks in the ring, they got up.

“Ultimate Fighting Champion”-Event mit Ex-Präsident Trump
When the UFC fighters McGregor (32) and Poirier (32) moved into the arena for the main fight, Donald Trump rose from his seat and applauded enthusiastically. Trump reacted visibly shocked to McGregor’s injury. He stepped closer to the cage to see how McGregor was treated and how Poirier was surprisingly celebrated by the audience. At 9:31 pm local time, Poirier was declared the winner of the fight. Donald Trump left the Octagon a short time later through the VIP entrance.
McGregor loses UFC fight: reactions on Twitter
In the social network, there was mixed reaction to McGregor’s broken leg. Numerous users laughed up their sleeves that “McChicken Gregor” of all people had to leave the fight so early. The Irishman is known for not mincing words and for not being squeamish when handing out. “This man is the perfect example of the fact that you should never fill your mouth,” said a fan on Twitter.

Some users found the mockery that hit the injured man on Twitter: inside it was a bit too harsh. “How can anyone be like that. By the way, you’re doing what bothers you about McGregor right now. And again you don’t like him, totally okay – but to say someone deserves such an injury .. Not nice,” noted one Users an.
Another wrote: “I think #McGregor is rather borderline, but that’s really mangy and shit. Get well soon.” We wish the injured martial arts artist that too!
