Fighting superstar Randy Couture praised President-elect Donald Trump Wednesday on an appearance on “The Domenick Nati Show.”

“I feel that we have a pretty dang successful businessman. You know, people can criticize or say whatever they want, but he understands the system, taxes, and everything else and how business works. He’d be able to, hopefully, create some better trade deals,” Couture said in part. (SLIDESHOW: UFC Star Arianny Celeste Is Nearly Naked For All Her Fans In These Pictures)
