Almost four years ago, UFC President Dana White attended the Republican National Convention to support his friend and the current President of the United States of America, Donald Trump. When it was his turn to speak, White stole the show with one of the most powerful speeches of his life.

White and Trump have been good friends for a long time. The duo has a shared interest in MMA. Back in the day, Trump even had a major stake in Affliction (MMA Promotion). Besides that, Donald Trump supported White when the UFC was illegal in most states.

Over the years, Trump attended multiple UFC events. Hence, it made sense for White to return the favor. In 2016, the UFC juggernaut spoke at the Republican National Conference. Looking back at the address, it is safe to say that the Republicans certainly did not regret sending the invitation.

White was so pumped up that he delivered one of the best speeches — or should I say promo? — of his career. For a second, it almost felt like White was promoting a Conor McGregor fight.

Dana White endorses Donald Trump

Here are a few words from Dana’s speech.

“I’m not a politician. I am a fight promoter. But I was blown away and honored to be invited here tonight.  And I wanted to show up and tell you about my friend Donald Trump, the Donald Trump that I know.”
