Elon Musk seemed to have liked his time at UFC 309, as his recent disguise at the pay-per-view event elicited some amusing reactions from MMA fans worldwide. Many admired Musk, comparing him to Clark Kent and Mark Cuban.

Musk marked his presence along with Donald Trump at UFC 309, which took place this past Saturday at Madison Square Garden, as the two were escorted into the building by UFC CEO Dana White. The crowd responded with a thundering ovation as they walked into the venue.

The president-elect was joined by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Speaker Mike Johnson.
