Eric Trump is denying accusations that he sought information in asking UFC commentator Daniel Cormier whether any fights on the White House South Lawn on Sunday are rigged.
Cormier reportedly posted screenshots of direct messages between him and Trump, which were quickly deleted, before the Freedom 250 event kicked off in the evening.
“The UFC is a sport that I am deeply passionate about,” Cormier appeared to write on X, adding: “I will not tolerate this type of insider behavior.”
The purported post — which a handful of users and reporters said they came across — seemingly shows Trump asking if the former UFC star planned on placing any bets and whether any of the fighters were injured.
“I’ll just cut to the chase,” Trump allegedly goes on to ask. “Are any of the fights tomorrow rigged?”
