Former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury will invite US President Donald Trump to enter the ring ahead of his clash with British rival Anthony Joshua.
Fury and Joshua are fighting in Cardiff on December 11 and the “Gypsy King” is keen for Trump to join the procession to the ring at the 80,000 capacity Principality Stadium.

Fury Trump met at UFC Freedom 250 at the White House in June and wore a hat emblazoned with the words “Donald Trump for Prime Minister” after lifting an 80-year-old ban in the United States.
“I’ll certainly give what he has to offer to my old buddy, the old man, and we’ll see if he’s available,” said Erinnys.
“Probably probably because of the situation at the time, when the president of the United States.”
Meanwhile, Fury insists that the clash with Joshua is only preparation for his real priority – a trilogy of fights against Oleksandr Usyk, to whom he has already lost twice.

“I have no intention of giving up after Joshua. Using this bum as a warm-up for Usyk,” he said.
“This is a bummer for me and I can guarantee that at night when I get knocked out he won’t know what time it is. And then I want the rabbit (Usyk) in New York City.
“This year will be my busiest since 2018. I did 12 laps with 6ft 8in Arslanbek Makhmudov and I did seven laps with another 6ft 7in behemoth in Mariusz Wach.
“Don’t pull any punches here. I’m firing on all cylinders at the moment. I feel fantastic. I’m a 38-year-old boy.”
