sport">His demonstration match against Vitor Belfort, a star of the mixed martial arts (MMA), was finished within two minutes. US ex-President Donald Trump saw that boxing grandpa Holyfield hung in the ropes after a few seconds and went to the ground not much later. Although Holyfield did not agree, the arbiter ended the match with a technical knockout not much later.
