More than a week after he registered a victory in the Presidential polls, Donald Trump, along with Tesla chief Elon Musk, arrived at the iconic Madison Square Garden in New York to witness an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) clash on Saturday.
Trump was welcomed by a cheering crowd and loud music when he stepped into the arena.
Apart from Musk, who is part of Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the other key members of his Cabinet, including Robert F Kennedy Jr and Tulsi Gabbard, joined the crowd for the fight event.
Jon Jones, who retained his heavyweight UFC title, greeted Trump and handed over his title to the President-elect.
"I want to say a big thank you to President Donald Trump for being here tonight," Jones was quoted as saying by BBC.
Over the years, Trump attended several UFC events.
Trump returned for his second term as the President of the USA after registering a victory in the polls by beating his opponent Kamala Harris.
