”I mean, Jon Jones has to fight,” Trump said. “I would love to see him. I feel like he has one left in him, and if there’s ever one you’re going to do, it’s the White House. I think you’re going to see McGregor at that one. I know McGregor pretty well; he’s a great guy. There’s so much talent there right now. We have to have a good American showing on America’s birthday at the White House.”
It’s important to make a good impression for all those “dignitaries from around the world.”
“We’ve become pretty close to Bo Nickal; he’s a hell of a fighter,” Trump added. “This kid was undefeated at Penn State, a true American champ who goes into the Octagon and starts knocking people’s heads off. I’d like to see a couple of American kids who did really well in college, at the good American state schools.”
White and Co. are expected to begin assembling “the baddest card of all time” in February.
Definitely reminds me of this
I just don’t get why any of us are supposed to give half a shit that these fights are taking place at the White House. Or probably pay more for them too, because the WH lawn is in the background.
MSG would still be more impressive imo. Still…MSG, White House, Apex…who gives a shit? Just put on the fights.
