UFC 296 created quite a buzz, drawing attention from all quarters, especially due to the star-studded guest list. Notably, former US President Donald Trump was among the prominent figures who added to the event’s glamour. The welterweight title challenger Colby Covington was expecting Trump will be his winning mate but the tables turned and Leon Edwards clinched the victory.

UFc’s final installment for the year marked a distinctive moment for Donald Trump as it held a unique significance. The pay-per-view showcased the much-anticipated bout between Colby Covington, his favored MMA fighter, and Leon Edwards. However looks like Trump had enough of Covington’s performance.

After the main event was over, Covington was giving a speech inside the octagon, praising Donald Trump. However, it seemed that the former president was not satisfied with ‘Chaos’s performance, as Trump walked out of the arena just before Covington could finish his speech appreciating͏ him.

During the post-fight interview, Covington was all praise for the former POTUS calling for him to be reflected, while the actual questions asked of him had nothing to do with Trump. What do you think? Why did Trump walk out earlier?
