""He should stick to the UFC, they're going to boo him everywhere else," Rogan said. "I heard some people cheered, I heard it was like cheers and boos, but the problem is, if there's cheers and any boos...if there's like 50/50...don't go to that spot, go to the UFC," Rogan added.about whether Trump was welcomed or rejected by the New York crowd.to remarks the president made following Monday night's game.

Diaz later said that Trump's presence at the game was"the kiss of death" for the Knicks, who lost to the Spurs, ending New York's 13-game playoff winning streak.
Trump's presence created an unusually complex security operation on Monday night, as the U.S. Secret Service, New York Police Department and arena officials established extensive security protocols around Madison Square Garden, including a no-bag policy, multiple screening checkpoints and a large security perimeter around the arena. Fans were advised to arrive significantly earlier than usual, with officials warning of longer entry times due to the enhanced screening procedures. The additional security measures also affected surrounding events.
Authorities canceled the Knicks’ traditional outdoor watch party outside the Garden for Game 3, citing coordination with the Secret Service and the challenges of managing large crowds during a presidential visit. Game 4 of the NBA Finals is set for tipoff at 8:30 p.m. ET Wednesday. It is immediately unknown if Trump plans to attend another game.
