Billionaire businessman turned former US president extraordinaire, Donald Trump, is undoubtedly one of the most eccentric individuals to walk the floors of the White House. Trump has often been at loggerheads with the current US president, Joe Biden. People have often wondered have the duo would fare against a backdrop of pugilism. And, it seems like Trump has an answer for the same.

Evander Holyfield faced Vitor Belfort for an exhibition bout at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood in Miami on September 11, 2021. Meanwhile, Trump also had a very special role in this event. The former POTUS and his son ran an alternate commentary program for the show.

The press conference also saw Trump’s presence via a phone call. In conversation, he was asked who he wished to face in a boxing match. Trump, on the other hand, did not wish to face a professional boxer, but someone closer home. He said, “If you said if I had to box somebody. I think my easiest fight would be Joe Biden. I think he’d go down very, very quickly.”

Trump further added, “He once said ‘oh, I’d like to take him behind the bar’. He’d be in big trouble if he ever did. T think Biden would go down within the first few seconds.”
