    I hurt Deontay Wilder and was KO’d by Anthony Joshua – I could see AJ knocking out Tyson Fury

    HEAVYWEIGHT Eric Molina is in the unique position of having fought both Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder. Molina in 2015 challenged Wilder for the WBC world title and even had the American hurt with a left hook.

    But the Bronze Bomber caught up with the challenger and knocked him out in round nine.
    A year later, he faced Joshua for the IBF belt in Manchester but was stopped in just three rounds.
    And Molina predicted AJ’s ferocious combination-punching could be a key to victory over his great rival Tyson Fury.
    He told iFL TV in 2021: “I can see Anthony Joshua knocking out Tyson Fury. I can see that happening.

    “If you look at Tyson Fury, he does some things similar to me defensively against Wilder, which was to stay away from one or two big shots.
    “I’ve always had my strength of when I sparred big punchers, I’ve always said bring me the bigger punchers because I could see one, two, or three shots. I could get a read.
    “Wilder gives you a big read like [winding up his shots]. He’s coming hard, but he’s giving me all that.
    “So by the time I see that, I’m moving. I’m not just going to stand there. The ones that stand there [covering up] against Wilder, you’re going to get hurt.

    “I already knew that I wasn’t just going to pick my gloves up to take a shot like that. The same way Fury does not do that.
    “What Joshua does, he doesn’t give you that boom. He’s very fluid with his punches. He comes with three, four, five, maybe even a six.”
    Molina, 41, last fought in March in a seventh-round defeat to Canadian Simon Kean, 34.
    Joshua, 34, and Wilder, 38, meanwhile return on the same card in Saudi Arabia but in separate bouts.
    AJ faces Otto Wallin, 32, while Wilder returns against Joseph Parker, 31, as a blockbuster in 2024 awaits the pair should they win.

    Tyson Fury hearing today as dad John arrives at court over £82,000 council tax row at their £1million mansion

    TYSON Fury faces a court hearing today alongside his dad and brother after being accused of dodging a whopping £82,000 council tax bill for a car park at their £1million mansion. The two-time heavyweight boxing champion, 35, bought the property with his father John, 59, and sibling Shane, 32, which is just a stone’s throw from where they grew up.

    John has arrived at Chester magistrates court for the hearing – but Tyson, who is worth £130million, is not currently in the country after jetting out to Saudi Arabia last week on a private jet. 
    Shane is also absent for the hearing.
    John currently lives at the house in Styal, Cheshire, and the trio – worth jointly over £134million – have failed to cough up £82,166.85 to Cheshire East Council for the adjoining car park, court documents claim. 
    Multiple caravans and motorhomes are parked on the land behind impressive big black gates at the entrance to the home. 
    MORE ON FURY
    The hearing could see the Furys be hit with a liability order if found guilty, or in extreme cases even face up to three months in jail. 
    If granted, they could face “enforcement action”, meaning an unlucky bailiff will be given the unenviable task of reclaiming assets from the boxing family. 
    Married dad-of-seven Tyson dubbed The Gypsy King, is 6ft 9in.
    John is a 6ft 3in ex-pro boxer and bare-knuckle fighter, who once went to jail for gouging a man’s eye out.

    Shane is a former superheavyweight amateur boxer.
    Tyson also has other boxing brothers, including Love Island star Tommy, 24.
    Barrister Sarah Robson, a fixed costs specialist at Alpha Court Chambers, said: “Often, the first time people realise a liability order has been granted is when bailiffs are sent round.
    “Cases are often sent to magistrates in batches of hundreds and sometimes thousands, and they are rubber stamped without real scrutiny.” More

    Anthony Joshua’s tell-tale sign he ‘fears’ Deontay Wilder, according to Bronze Bomber

    DEONTAY WILDER claimed he sensed “fear” in Anthony Joshua when they finally came face to face. The heavyweight stars will share the same card on December 23 in Saudi Arabia but in separate bouts.

    And they went eye to eye at the press conference to announce the stunning pay-per-view card.
    But Joshua, 34, refused to call out his American rival on the top table.
    And Wilder, 38, said on The Last Stand podcast: “Every time my name comes up he goes the other way.
    “And it’s always been like this for almost a decade now. It’s been like that because of the fear that Joshua has towards me.

    “It’s because of what I’m capable of doing in that ring. We’ve seen it, women lie, men lie but numbers don’t lie.
    “The proof is in the pudding and I’ve displayed this over and over and over again.
    “It’s a thing that I understand but I don’t understand, you see something that can potentially happen and this man shows it over and over again.
    “I understand that part but this is the hurt business, this is what we signed up for bro, to be warriors.”

    Joshua returns against Swedish southpaw Otto Wallin, 32, who famously left Tyson Fury, 35, needing 47 stitches in his 2019 loss.
    Meanwhile, Wilder faces ex-WBO champion Joseph Parker, 31, who is a training partner of Fury’s.
    The Bronze Bomber and AJ are lined up for a blockbuster in 2024 should they leave Riyadh victorious.
    But when probed, Wilder said: “My main focus right now is doing what I need to do on December 23rd.
    “I’ve got to get past Joseph Parker first and then we will talk about the future plans after that.”

    Fans fear ‘not one person comes off well out of this’ as Tommy Fury holds talks with boxing legend, 54, over next fight

    BOXING fans fear Tommy Fury’s next fight could be a lose-lose all round after entering talks with a 54-year-old legend. The ex-Love Islander beat YouTube stars Jake Paul, 26, and KSI, 30, in 2023 to become king of the crossover scene.

    And two weeks after his controversial win over KSI, the 24-year-old took a trip to Saudi Arabia in support of his brother Tyson.
    Days before Tyson, 35, also contentiously beat ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou, 37, Tommy struck a deal to face American great Roy Jones Jr.
    And now, Jones has confirmed that negotiations between the two are underway as he looks to secure a big payday in Saudi.
    He told Casino Alpha: “Saudi Arabia at the moment will probably pay what I’m looking for to make an exhibition happen.
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    “Dealing with the Saudis I’ll say that I’m 75 per cent sure this exhibition happens against Tommy Fury.”
    Jones – who is 55 in January – is considered one of the best of all time, reigning over FOUR divisions including heavyweight.
    But he boxed well into his 50s and in 2020 welcomed back Mike Tyson for an exhibition.
    Jones again made a return this April against MMA veteran Anthony Pettis, losing on points – leaving fans fearing the worst amid talks with Tommy.

    One said: “Not one person comes off well out of this.”
    Another added: “Someone should go to prison if that fight is made.”
    One claimed: “Roy my favorite fighter of All Time.. Please stop fighting.”
    Jones has also opened the door to fighting Tommy on away soil should the price be right.
    He said: “If the money is not right in Saudi Arabia then maybe me and Tommy could do an exhibition in the UK, that would be the first time that I ever had the chance to perform in the UK.
    “Would I really say no to that? I believe people in the UK would support that fight.
    “I’ve got a lot of fans in the UK and I think they’ll have enough fan exposure to get some interest in staging that.”
