Michael Avenatti Challenges Donald Trump Jr. to a Charity MMA Fight

Donald Trump Jr. and Michael Avenatti clashed on Twitter earlier, but now Stormy Daniels‘ lawyer is proposing an actual fight for charity.

Avenatti confirmed on Twitter this afternoon that he is proposing the idea of a mixed martial arts fight between himself and the President’s son:

This would be for two great causes. I’m in. https://t.co/zo46yhsXCi

My portion of the proceeds from the fight will be split 50% to rebuilding Puerto Rico and 50% to @RAINN. Just waiting on Bif to confirm. #Basta

Trump Jr. had initially mockingly tweeted, “Who else is excited about Avanetti/Weiner 2020?!?”

Who else is excited about Avanetti/Weiner 2020?!?

It’s gonna be Carlos Dangerous. https://t.co/yLWO1D2rwx

Avenatti responded by taunting him about going to prison:

Bif: If I were you, the last thing I would be doing is referencing other people getting out of federal prison. Because after you are indicted, you will likely be passing them on your way in. BTW, they don’t have silver spoons or gold toilets in the joint. Buckle up Buttercup. https://t.co/jnDq4weHZh
