His appearance at the event comes after he pleaded not guilty last week to 34 charges relating to a 2016 hush-money payment to the adult film star Stormy Daniels.
Trump was in the audience at the Kaseya Center to watch the main event of Israel Adesanya versus Alex Pereira and the fight between vocal Trump supporter Jorge Masvidal and Gilbert Burns.
Masvidal praised Trump from inside the ring, pointing at him and saying: "Greatest president in the history of the world, I love that guy."
Masdival also praised Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Trump's greatest political rival, and started a "let's go Brandon" chant in an insult to President Joe Biden.
At one point, UFC fighter Kevin Holland came over to speak with the former president from the cage after he beat Santiago Ponzinibbio.
