I'll pick this up. Kosack (talk) 15:12, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

Lead

 * The lead is rather short, only a single paragraph. There is no mention of any of the actual fights that took place, it seems more concerned with Trump.
 * Add (UFC) after the initial use of Ultimate Fighting Championship to explain further uses of the abbreviation.
 * Refs are only necessary in the lead if the information is not sourced in the main text, per WP:LEADCITE.

Background

 * "That led up to the booking of this fight", a bit overly wordy. Simply "led to the booking..." would be sufficient.
 * Link Dana White.
 * There's an odd mix of past and future tense in places. For example, "headlined the event" and "will be delivered to the winner of this bout".

President Trump's Attendance

 * Attendance doesn't need capitalising in the heading.
 * Link Donald Trump for the first mention after the lead.
 * "Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC)", UFC is used several times in the main body before this. Move the abbreviation to the first usage after the lead.
 * "On Saturday, November 2nd" > on November 2. Per MOS:DATEFORMAT.
 * Link Zuffa, Frank Fertitta, Lorenzo Fertitta, Atlantic City, White House and 2016 Republican National Convention
 * "public perception of MMA", the abbreviation has never been used before this. Include a usage in brackets, as in the use of UFC, at the first usage.
 * The section is quite pro Trump. In the lead it mentions he had a mixed reception in the arena. I'd include that here for some balance.
