Trump Jokes He Could Take On MMA Fighter Bo Nickal at Pennsylvania Event

President Donald Trump, 80, proudly claimed he is in comparable physical shape to a professional MMA fighter 50 years his junior.

During a speech at a Mack Truck facility in Reading, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday, the president introduced a special guest who was involved in "the highest-rated fight show ever in the history of television," and seemingly implied that he could take him on mano a mano.

"This guy... I'm thinking, you know, I'm a similar size. I'm—actually, I weigh more than he does, actually, so, therefore, I have a tremendous physical advantage over him," Trump said about 30-year-old MMA fighter Bo Nickal. "His muscles are slightly harder and slightly younger—he's a lot younger. But I think I can do it because I'm a great athlete."

"He knows I'm a very good golfer," the octogenarian added. "And, uh, I'm much better off on the golf course against him than I am on the wrestling mat."

give him oral sex, and when she resisted his assault, he punched her.

Apart from slapping his own son across the face in the doorway to his dorm room for not wearing a suit, it's the only time we've ever heard of Trump striking somebody.
