Former English heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury will invite US President Donald Trump to lead his entry into the ring, before his awaited fight with his compatriot Anthony Joshua.
Fury and Joshua are scheduled to face each other in Cardiff on December 11, and the “Gypsy King,” as he calls himself, is keen for Trump to join his convoy to the ring at the Principality Stadium, which has a capacity of 80,000 spectators.
Fury met Trump at the UFC Freedom 250 tournament at the White House last June, and wore a hat that read, “Donald Trump is Prime Minister,” after the 80-year-old president lifted the travel ban imposed on him from the United States.
Fury said: “I will definitely make this offer to my old friend, and we will see if he is free.”
He added: “This may be unlikely given the situation he is currently going through, as he is the President of the United States.”
Meanwhile, Fury insists that his fight with Joshua is only preparation for his real priority, which is the third fight against Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk, to whom he has previously lost twice.
He added: “I have no intention of retiring after Joshua. "I'm using this fight as a warm-up for Usyk."
He continued, saying: “This fight is just the beginning, and I guarantee you that the night I knock him out, he will not know what time it is. Then I want to face Usyk in New York.”
He concluded: “This will be the most active year for me since 2018. I went through 12 rounds with (Russian) Arslanbek Mahmudov, who is 1.97 meters tall, and seven rounds with (Polish) Mariusz Wachs, another giant who is 2.2 meters tall. Let's not hesitate to tell the truth, I am at the top of my game right now. “I feel wonderful even though I am 38 years old.”
Toyota driver Oliver Solberg took the lead in the final round of the World Rally Championship on the Italian island of Sardinia, on Saturday, but his teammate Elfyn Evans remained on track to win his first title.
Thierry Neuville, the Hyundai driver and leader of the standings after the end of Friday's competitions, exited the rally following an accident in stage 11, thus ending a close struggle with Solberg and giving the Swedish driver a comfortable advantage at the top of the standings, while the three-way battle for the title seemed wide open with four remaining stages on Sunday.
Evans started the rally with a 17-point lead over Finland's Sami Payari, also a Toyota driver, and 21 points ahead of Solberg.
At the end of Saturday's competitions, Welshman Evans remained on his way to winning the title, although his lead at the top was temporarily reduced to six points, while there were still many potential obstacles in front of him.
Solberg leads the standings in the Sardinia Rally by 33.6 seconds from his teammate and nine-time world champion Sebastien Ogier, while Baiari is third and Evans is fifth.
Evans was in fourth place before the final stage of the day, but he lost it to Hyundai driver Adrian Formo, who won the stage. The French driver is 52.1 seconds behind Payari.
“Of course, now we have to try to change the strategy a little,” said Evans, who finished runner-up in the overall standings five times over the last six seasons, and will become the third British driver to win the World Rally Championship title if he wins the crown on Sunday. We'll see if that will be enough. I don't think things will be easy tomorrow. Today was difficult trying to stay in the competition with the great speed shown by Oliver at the front. We still have a long way to go. We have a tough day tomorrow. Everything is still available.”
The Italian round will be held in Alghero, as the thirteenth and final rally of the season.
Toyota had already clinched the manufacturers' title for the sixth year in a row.
