WOW! Donald Trump to Make a Special Appearance at Vitor Belfort vs Evander Holyfield Boxing Event for His ‘Unfiltered’ Opinion

The upcoming Triller Fight Club event will be headlined by Evander Holyfield as he takes on Vitor Belfort. ‘The Real Deal’ stepped in as a last-minute replacement for Oscar De La Hoya. ‘The Golden Boy’ tested positive for COVID-19 and was ruled out of the bout. The most recent addition to the fight card is perhaps the most shocking addition that fans would definitely not have anticipated. 

Recent reports suggest that the former President of the United States, Donald Trump, will serve as a guest commentator for the upcoming card. Trump in a press release put out by Triller stated, “I love great fighters and great fights. I look forward to seeing both this Saturday night and sharing my thoughts ringside. You won’t want to miss this special event.”

Trump has been a long-time fan of combat sports. It is well documented that he provided Dana White and the UFC a venue to put on their first few events. Which is why Donald Trump has unwavering support from the UFC President Dana White. Trump also attends UFC fights often and was spotted cage side at UFC 244 and most recently at UFC 264.
