Former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury plans to ask US President Donald Trump to lead his ring walk before a fight against fellow British heavyweight Anthony Joshua.
Fury described Trump as an old friend as he outlined his intention to involve the US president in the pre-fight ceremony. The request would see Trump accompany Fury to the ring if the bout goes ahead.
The supplied information does not include a date or venue for the proposed fight, nor does it confirm whether Trump has accepted the invitation. Fury and Joshua are both former heavyweight champions, and the planned contest would bring together two of Britain’s most prominent boxers.
Further details about the event and any response from Trump have not been provided.
