Former President Donald Trump is scheduled to serve as a guest boxing commentator at an event taking place on the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, providing "unfiltered boxing commentary," according to a release.
The president's appearance – alongside his oldest son, Donald Trump, Jr. – comes at a pay-per-view event at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Fla. on Saturday. FITE, the digital streaming service carrying the event, announced Trump and his son would provide "alternative, in-person commentary" throughout the night, commentary that includes the title fight between Evander Holyfield and Vitor Belfort.
"I love great fighters and great fights," Trump said in a press release. "I look forward to seeing both this Saturday night and sharing my thoughts ringside. You won't want to miss this special event."
The event costs $49.99 to stream.
A year ago, Trump hosted a moment of silence aboard Air Force One and delivered remarks in Shanksville, Pa. to mark the 9/11 anniversary, as reported by The Hill. The former president is no stranger to boxing, having hosted several combat sports events at his hotels and casinos in Atlantic City.
Holyfield faces Belfort after his original opponent, Oscar De La Hoya, was forced to withdraw after testing positive for COVID-19.
