Fury Says He May Invite Trump to Walk the Ring for Joshua Fight
Tyson Fury plans to ask Donald Trump to join his ring walk for the December 11 bout against Anthony Joshua in Cardiff.
Tyson Fury revealed he intends to ask Donald Trump to accompany him on the ring walk for his December 11 showdown with Anthony Joshua in Cardiff's 80,000-seat Principality Stadium. The idea stems from a June meeting at a UFC event where Fury wore a "Donald Trump for Prime Minister" cap after his U.S. travel ban was lifted. While Fury called Trump an "old pal," he acknowledged the president's schedule may prevent participation.
He stressed the Joshua bout is merely a preparatory step before a planned third fight with Oleksandr Usyk, whom he has lost to twice. Fury also referenced recent long bouts with Arslanbek Makhmudov and Mariusz Wach as part of his current training momentum.
Why it matters
The invitation links a high-profile political figure with a major boxing event, drawing extra media attention.
