This isn’t the first time Trump has been involved in MMA in some fashion, as the President Of The United States recently attended UFC 244, was part of a documentary about his role in the sport and hosted several UFC events in the Trump Taj Mahal a long time ago.

The victorious Ortiz has yet to respond to Trump, at least through social media, and is now in the midst of a three fight winning streak. Del Rio, on the other hand, is in the midst of a two fight losing streak and he hasn’t won a bout in nearly a decade.
