MMA fighter ‘King Bau’ used his walkout to make a bold political stand, questioning why former president Donald Trump was ‘indicted before anyone on (Jeffrey) Epstein’s client list.’<\/p>\n
The 32-year-old fought in Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA on Friday night, losing a split decision to Curtis Millender in Biloxi, Mississippi.<\/p>\n
As he made his way to the octagon, King Bau – real name\u00a0Joel Bauman – wore gold shorts and a black t-shirt which read: ‘Trump was indicted before anyone on Epstein’s client list.’<\/p>\n
