Tyson Fury says he will ask US President Donald Trump to join him on the ringwalk for his upcoming bout against Anthony Joshua. Multiple outlets report that Fury is planning to invite Trump to accompany him as he enters the ring.
The reports also note Fury’s ongoing public support for Trump. One outlet adds that Fury appeared at UFC Freedom 250 at the White House in July, reinforcing the claim that he has ties to or admiration for the US president. Another outlet describes Trump as an “old pal,” but does not add new details beyond Fury’s intention to involve him in the ceremonial ringwalk.
While all sources agree on Fury’s plan and the opponent—Joshua—coverage focuses on slightly different characterizations of Trump’s role, ranging from a formal invitation to Trump “leading” the ringwalk. The outlets do not present additional information on whether Trump has confirmed attendance or how the request would be coordinated with event organizers.
