UFC-ov Derrick Lewis priopćio je publici u Las Vegasu da ga je prije borbe nazvao predsjednik Donald Trump i ponudio riječi ohrabrenja protiv stranog protivnika.
“Zaboravio sam, nekoliko sati prije borbe nazvao me Donald Trump i rekao mi da moram nokautirati ovor ruskog [eksplicitno], jer ga će ispasti loše na vijestima”, rekao je Lewis komičaru i komentatoru Joe Roganu. “Znaš, on i Putin su [eksplicitno]. [Eksplicitno što oni govore. SAD u ovom [eksplicitno].”
Ovo je bio naširoko smatran jednim od jedinstvenijih intervjua nakon borbe.
Derrick Lewis is a unique fighter and a unique human being, to say the least. #UFC229

Necenzurirana verzija:
UFC Heavyweight Derrick Lewis just said: “I forgot, few hours before the fight, Donald Trump called me and told me I gotta knock this Russian mofo out cuz they makin’ him look bad on the news.” from r/The_Donald
UFC fighter Derrick Lewis just said @POTUS called him and asked him to knock out that Russian.
