The 45th president will be joined by his son Donald Trump Jr. at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida for the fight on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>They have been slated to assist with the play-by-plays of the fight between Evander Holyfield and Vitor Belfort. President Trump has previously hosted several boxing events in the 80\u2019s and 90\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell during the course of my business career, I held many, many fights. I had Evander, a really great champion and Mike Tyson,\u201d he stated. \u201c\u2026I just really learned to like it. I\u2019d much rather watch it than do it, but I learned to like it and the fans like it. There\u2019s nothing like a great fight and I\u2019ve had plenty of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/trillerfight?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@trillerfight<\/a> presents live alternative No Holds Barred commentary from <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/DonaldTrump?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#DonaldTrump<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DonaldJTrumpJr?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@DonaldJTrumpJr<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>They will offer their perspective on the big <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/HolyfieldBelfort?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#HolyfieldBelfort<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/boxing?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#boxing<\/a> PPV<\/p>\n<p>Included with your <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TrillerFightClub?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#TrillerFightClub<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LegendsII?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LegendsII<\/a> purchase<\/p>\n[ Sept. 11 | <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/0cAIvu2yKw\">https:\/\/t.co\/0cAIvu2yKw<\/a> ] <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3nxWfekmVR\">pic.twitter.com\/3nxWfekmVR<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 FITE (@FiteTV) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FiteTV\/status\/1435381277914509313?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 7, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>According to the 45th president, one of the main reasons he agreed to be a commentator was his close relationship with one of the fighters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell it\u2019s one of the reasons I\u2019m doing it. I tell you what. I have been close to Evander,\u201d he expressed. \u201cI\u2019ve been with Evander during some incredible times and during some of his incredible wins and I\u2019ve seen Evander in a little bit of a bad time, but he always came out of it. He\u2019s a great guy and he\u2019s a great, great, fighter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump said Holyfield has a great physique, but he\u2019s also a great man.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know Evander\u2019s family and he\u2019s a very special guy, tremendous heart,\u201d he explained. \u201c\u2026Evander was always in shape, but better than his body was his heart. The guy was just a fantastic person. I don\u2019t know if he can hear me now. I hope he can, but Evander had tremendous heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fans are eagerly awaiting the president\u2019s return to boxing commentary at the upcoming fight.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/gop-to-sue-the-biden-admin-over-nationwide-vaccine-mandates\/\">GOP To Sue The Biden Admin.
