It's basically human cockfighting with the participants only marginally more intelligent than chickens.

President Donald Trump was captured on video smiling Sunday after an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fighter dropped a shockingly "offensive and false remark about former First Lady Michelle Obama during the UFC event at the White House, CNN reported.
Mixed martial artist Joshua Hokit, 28, defeated his opponent Derrick Lewis Sunday night at the White House UFC bout, and after his victory, shouted an inflammatory and false claim targeting the former first lady......
Hokits remarks also elicited a response from Trump, who was seated in the first row at the event.
In a brief moment captured on camera, Trump, seated first row at the Octagon, appeared to show a half-smile seconds after the false remark, which has previously circulated online, wrote CNNs Alejandra Jaramillo.
Back in February, Trump faced rare bipartisan outrage after posting a video on his social media platform Truth Social that briefly depicted former President Barack Obama and the first lady as primates in the jungle. The blowback was so fierce that Trump who denied being aware that the segment of the video he posted included the racist depiction ultimately deleted the post.
