Donald Trump just landed another heavyweight endorsement.

In a Monday interview with HuffPost Live, former heavyweight champion of the world — and self-proclaimed “Baddest Man on the Planet” — endorsed Republican front-runner Donald Trump for president.

TYSON: He should be president of the United States. A guy that came from where he came from, doing what he’s doing in that field, and now this is where he’s at now. You know what that means? That doesn’t mean he’s a bad guy and the people don’t know what they’re doing, that means the people are tired of what you’re doing, what you’ve been doing the last 20 years. So let’s try something new! We tried Obama, right, time for a change. So we got to change. So now let’s try something new. Let’s run America like a business, where no colors matter. Whoever can do the job, gets the job … Should be president of the United States … He’s an average guy like everybody else … Anytime people are going to say bad things about Latinos, they’re going to say bad things about Blacks, bad things about any ethnic people. Whatever it is, that’s just what this country was built on. But it doesn’t stop us from striving. It doesn’t stop us from becoming president.
