Fury Wilder Trump

The rematch between Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury was one of the biggest in boxing history — and President Donald Trump was one of many who was watching.

Fury shocked the world when he outclassed and battered Wilder en route to winning the WBC heavyweight championship via seventh-round TKO on Saturday night.

Trump — who has a storied history with the world of combat sports — was impressed by both competitors and is considering inviting them to the White House in the near future.

“That was a great fight,” Trump told reporters outside the White House on Sunday before his trip to India (via New York Post). “Two great fighters. It was really very exciting.

“Maybe we have to bring them both to the White House — I don’t know — because that was really a good one. I think we’ll do that.”

Wilder had previously visited the White House back in 2018 when Trump posthumously pardoned Jack Johnson, the first African-American heavyweight champion, who was convicted back in 1913 for flaunting his relationship with white women during a period of extreme racial tension.

“Donald is a huge fan of boxing, was asking me about my next fight and encouraging me to get the knockout,” Wilder said at the time. “But on this day in history, I am able to say, forevermore, that I was there for yet another historical achievement to take back to my family and my children and the people of Alabama. I’m able to say that I was there when they pardoned Jack Johnson.”

And of course, Fury is a fan of Trump as well.

Fury’s father John believes a meeting in the White House would be the perfect way for his son to bow out from the sport of boxing.

“That’s good for a Fury, isn’t it?” John said on GMB. “And I’m a big fan of Donald Trump. It’s been an amazing journey and look where it’s ended. And what a great point to bow out on — a meeting in the White House.”

What do you think of Trump potentially inviting Fury and Wilder to the White House?

In 2016 Dana White was at the forefront of the campaign to get Donald Trump elected. The UFC President spoke at the Republican National Convention during a successful election campaign.

Four years later White has spoken again in attempt to get his friend re-elected. On Thursday evening he was invited on stage by the US President to give a speech during a rally in Colorado Springs. In front of thousands of supporters White focused on the character of Trump who to him is a loyal friend, he said.

“What’s up,
Colorado. How are you today?” White said. “So, I’m not a very political person.
I’ll start there. But let me say this: There’s things that I could tell you
about the President of the United States that you don’t hear on TV and you
don’t hear from other people. I’ve known this man for 20 years. We’ve actually
become even closer since he’s become the President of the United States. When
somebody becomes the President of the United States, you don’t expect to hear
from them again, OK? And I understand it. It absolutely makes sense. This guy
is so loyal and such a good friend. When I saw him today, when I met him on Air
Force One, the first thing he said to me is, ‘How is your family.’

“Good man, very loyal and a very good friend. I see a lot of things from Mr. Trump that the public doesn’t see, and the people who surround me every day see how this man treats me as a friend and other people he’s friends with. He’s a fighter, he loves this country, he’s doing great things for this country, and we gotta win this election again, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you.” (Transcribed by MMAJunkie)
