Tyson Fury Plans to Invite Trump to Lead Ring Walk for Joshua Fight

British heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury says he intends to invite US President Donald Trump to lead his entrance to the ring before his eagerly anticipated fight against compatriot Anthony Joshua.

The surprise plan would put Trump at the head of Fury’s ring-walk entourage, adding a political dimension to the spectacle surrounding the all-British matchup.

Fury’s announcement concerns an invitation he plans to extend, rather than a confirmed appearance by the US president. No response from Trump was provided.

Whether Trump will accept remains an open question, but Fury’s proposed guest has added another talking point ahead of his meeting with Joshua.
