Aging boxer Evander Holyfield and former UFC champion Vitor Belfort are fighting today.
If that wasn’t strange enough, former President Donald Trump is on commentary duties.
“I love great fighters and great fights,” Donald Trump said in a press release.
“I look forward to seeing both this Saturday night and sharing my thoughts ringside.
You won’t want to miss this special event.”
But earlier this month, De La Hoya posted a video shot from a hospital bed.
He has COVID-19 and can’t fight.
Holyfield turns 59 on Oct. 19.
According to a report from ESPN, the California State Athletic Commission refused to sanction Holyfield-Belfort.
Or order it through your existing cable, satellite or telecommunications provider.
How and why are the Trumps involved?
Donald Trump is hardly new to combat sports.
He’s alongtime friend of Dana White, president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
For the Sept. 11 event, the Trumps will offer commentary on all four of the evening’s fights.
But they’re not the only soundtrack available.
Viewers can pick between the Trumps narrating the fight, or regular commentators Jim Lampley and Shawn Porter.
