    Listen to Anthony Joshua’s brutal voicenote to Carl Froch after Brit boxers’ public fallout

    ANTHONY JOSHUA sent Carl Froch have been involved in a very public, very bitter public row – and now you can listen to AJ’s brutal voice note to his rival.The two were once friends and training partners at Team GB’s Sheffield HQ. Carl Froch played out a voicenote sent from Anthony JoshuaCredit: YouTubeJoshua and Froch were locked in a feudCredit: GettyBut in retirement, Froch has become an outspoken pundit not afraid to criticise the likes of AJ and Tyson Fury. Joshua and Froch then went back-and-forth with WhatsApp messages at the peak of their feud.But things look to have cooled down as AJ sent in a question for Froch on his YouTube channel – despite aiming a dig.Joshua said: “What’s happening? How’s your week going? How’s your podcast going? READ MORE IN BOXING”Quick question – when you boxed Jean Pascal for your first world title in Nottingham, Tyson Fury actually made his pro debut on that card, you fought for a vacant title right?“So you didn’t beat a champion. What do you feel about that? Do you feel that you was regarded a champion because you fought for a vacant one? “So the title not being there, it would have just been a normal fight. But they threw a title in the air and you became champion.“You didn’t beat a champion, to become champion if you get what I mean. Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS”Do you feel like that win is, not irrelevant, but it’s not highly regarded the same as if you was to have gone and beat a world champion? How do you feel about that fight with Jean Pascal?”Froch beat Pascal for the vacant WBC super-middleweight title after Joe Calzaghe moved up to light-heavyweight. Carl Froch adds fuel to fire of Anthony Joshua feud with big claim and says Daniel Dubois fight could be his lastAnd in response to Joshua, he said: “Did I feel like world champion? I had the green and the gold belt. “When I woke up and saw the belt at the bottom of my bed in the morning, I felt like a world champion. “I know what he means. I didn’t beat the champion to become the champion. That’s probably why he conveniently didn’t ask about the IBF title.”Froch won the IBF belt in 2012 against Lucian Bute and later unified it with the WBA version against Mikkel Kessler. He retired in 2014 after knocking out George Groves in their rematch – famously in front of 80,000 at Wembley. It is the same stadium where Joshua, 34, returns on September 21 against Daniel Dubois, 26, in his challenge for the IBF title. I think he’s alright. I think we’re seeing eye-to-eye. We’ve had a good exchange of messages. Carl Froch on Anthony JoshuaAnd Froch, 47, revealed they are mending their relationship and teased a reunion. He said: “I think they all know. Anthony Joshua was the first question. He sent me a voicemail. “I think he’s alright. I think we’re seeing eye-to-eye. We’ve had a good exchange of messages. “For all you fanboys out there that are upset that we’ve played the voicenote ‘oh you shouldn’t be releasing private messages’. “Trust me, me and Anthony Joshua are OK. We’re both fighters. We’ve both shared the ring and we’ve shared same trainer and environment.READ MORE SUN STORIES”He’s got respect for me, I’ve got a lot of respect for him and I wish him all the best. “He actually said he’d be coming on the channel in the near future.

    Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury moves closer as groundbreaking broadcast deal to be signed before British blockbuster clash

    ANTHONY JOSHUA’s highly anticipated clash with Tyson Fury is closer to becoming a reality.Broadcaster DAZN is reportedly closing in on a deal that would see promoters Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn come under the same banner.Tyson Fury will fight Oleksandr Usyk this yearCredit: GettyFans have wanted Fury to fight Anthony Joshua for yearsCredit: ReutersThe streaming service is confident of sealing a long-term deal with Queensberry Promotions, according to The Times.The report has suggested that Warren’s company could have the deal in place in weeks.It is said that it would be a “seismic shift” in the world of boxing with Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing having a deal with DAZN since 2021.Joshua is the star of Matchroom Boxing and has signed a career-long deal with DAZN as well as holding equity in the broadcaster.READ MORE IN BOXINGFury is promoted by Warren, meaning the deal would see the two boxers are aligned to the same service.Queensberry had been contracted to TNT Sports but that deal will expire in 2025.The new deal with DAZN would come into place once that has expired.It would also make the streaming service the “home of UK boxing”.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSDAZN has previously sub-licensed TV deals with TNT and Sky Sports in order to make the most from pay-per-view fights.This was the case for bouts involving both Fury and Joshua in Saudi Arabia.Anthony Joshua comes face-to-face with bitter rival Tyson Fury as he blasts Gypsy King for ‘looking like a tomato’Will AJ vs Fury actually happen?SunSport boxing correspondent Wally Downes Jr answers the big questions around Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury finally facing each other…Could we finally see Fury vs AJ this year?Simply: Yes.Before the Saudi takeover of boxing – spearheaded by Turki Alalshikh, would we have seen Fury vs Francis Ngannou, AJ vs Ngannou, Deontay Wilder vs Joseph Parker, Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn working together and shaking hands for photos?Simply: No.The rules, rankings, sanctioning bodies and broadcast and promotional disputes are all irrelevant when this much money is thrown at prize fighting.How would it work?It feels like the winner of Fury vs Usyk on May 18 will fight AJ as soon after as possible.There is a rematch clause in the current deal for Britain’s WBC champ and Ukraine’s WBA, IBF and WBO king to meet and decide the first undisputed ruler for 25 years.But it seems certain the belts will fragment afterwards – with a string of mandatory challengers due their crack at the four separate belts – so the clamour for AJ vs the winner might be bigger than the demand for a rerun for fewer belts.Where would it happen?It feels like every major fight is now going to happen in Saudi Arabia.But don’t rule out a potential Fury vs Ngannou clash taking place at Wembley stadium.It seems like the Saudis are keen to eventually host shows in the UK and that fight, at the home of football, would be some debut.If Usyk topples the Gypsy King then the hype for him to face AJ for a third time will be far less intense.Why this time?It feels like we have twice come close to seeing the clash but there were simply too many hurdles and disputes in the way – similar to the way AJ vs Wilder still hasn’t happened.But with Alalshikh now making Hearn’s Matchroom and Warren’s Queensberry play nice and letting Sky Sports, TNT and DAZN share the shows, there is far less to fight over in the boardroom and loads on to battle for in the ring.And if Fury beats Usyk and rightfully demands a huge percentage of an overdue Joshua meeting, then the Saudi’s have the cash and the clout to hand him 99 per cent of the pie – to massage his ego and bank balance – and hand AJ as much extra dough as needed to keep everyone sweet.Who wins?If Fury sets up an AJ clash by beating Oleksandr Usyk – the mathematics and stats make it clear only a maniac would back Joshua to triumph in the all-English clash.Usyk dominated AJ over two one-sided fights, on foreign soil.The Watford man has enjoyed a spike in form and respect since linking up with new trainer Ben Davison but a 20st 6ft 9in Fury – who has just slayed the gap-toothed southpaw – would be almost invincible.But in any major football derby or cup final the formbook is often aimed out of the window. And perhaps a rejuvenated hungry AJ could be too much for an undisputed and fulfilled Fury to handle.Fury is in action this year as he is expected to fight Oleksandr Usyk in December in Saudi Arabia.The Gypsy King lost to the Ukranian in May in what was his first defeat of his professional career.Joshua, meanwhile, will take on fellow British fighter Daniel Dubois at Wembley Stadium in September.The two will battle for the IBF heavyweight title that was vacated by Usyk.This could then potentially see Fury face Joshua in 2025 in what would be one of the most exciting British boxing fights in history.However, it is not yet known whether the historic fight would be in Riyadh or London.Inside the Gypsy King’s royal courtTYSON FURY is one of the biggest characters in sport.

    Paris Olympics star Jalolov is next in line to heavyweight throne and so good he was gifted luxury BMW by boxing boss

    BAKHODIR JALOLOV is the 6ft 7in horse-riding, gun-toting Uzbek southpaw tipped to top heavyweight boxing after the Paris Olympics.The 30-year-old leftie already has a winner’s medal from Tokyo 2020 and is the red-hot favourite to do the double in France.Bakhodir Jalolov won super-heavy Olympic gold at Tokyo 2020Jalolov was gifted a luxury BMW as a wedding gift by a Russian boxing bossAnd – in another embarrassment for struggling amateur boxing – he has been allowed to reach 14-0 in the pro ranks, knocking over all of the stiffs inside the distance.The scary stats impressed Russia’s International Boxing Association boss Umar Kremlev so much he sent Jalolov a luxury BMW – complete with bright red bow tied across the bonnet – as a December wedding gift..And the flashy gift from the controversial figure arrived with a whiff of ludicrous as it failed to blend in with the much more modest surroundings of Jalolov’s home.With 37-year-old undisputed king Oleksandr Usyk, 35-year-old rematch challenger Tyson Fury and 34-year-old former champ Anthony Joshua all approaching retirement, the throne will soon need a huge and super-talented backside to take over.Read more OLYMPICSAnd – even though 19-year-old Kent prodigy Moses Itauma has shown staggering early potential – giant Jalolov is earmarked to be the next monster success.Legendary Top Rank promoter Bob Arum revealed Paris was always part of the plan when the US powerhouse did their deal with the ace.The mastermind, who has played a pivotal role in the careers of icons from Muhammad Ali to Vasyl Lomachenko, explained to us: “When we signed Jalolov last year, his participation at the Paris Olympics was always part of the plan. “I have the utmost confidence that he will win another gold medal.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS“We plan on moving him very quickly after the Olympics. “He is a uniquely talent fighter, and I do not doubt that he’ll one day be a dominant heavyweight champion.Inside Muhammad Ali’s stunning former LA mansion up for sale“His combination of size and power from a southpaw stance doesn’t come around too often. “Every time I watch him fight, I am amazed by his composure and unique skill set.”The devout Muslim is multi-talented too, judging from the photos and clips from his star-studded Instagram account.Sandwiched between photos of Jalolov with Conor McGregor, Mike Tyson and Cristiano Ronaldo, are snapshots of his far-more pious personal life.The 18st hulk knows his way around a stable and can even mount and ride a giant horse, without either of them collapsing.I have the utmost confidence that he will win another gold medal.We plan on moving him very quickly after the Olympics.He can also bend a left-footed free-kick into the side netting from 25 yards so sweetly that – if he were English – Gareth Southgate would undoubtedly guarantee him three minutes off the bench in a pointless friendly.One Englishman who already rates Jalolov very highly is 2016 Olympic silver winner Joe Joyce, 38 – who beat the rising star in Rio.Jalolov has already been invited out to boxing hot bed Saudi Arabia and mixed with Cristiano RonaldoThe giant Uzbek southpaw has also met Mike TysonTeam GB hero Joe Joyce did beat Jalolov at the 2016 Rio GamesCredit: AP:Associated PressThe Putney Juggernaut – who was robbed of a gold by scandalous judging – told SunSport: “He was quite young back then and I felt I was in my prime, unstoppable.“It was a good fight, he tested me but I was ready and really ripping through people back then.“He was fresh back then and a tricky southpaw, but I was driving through anyone to get that gold medal.“That was eight years ago so he will have more experience and power and be even more difficult to beat.”Away from the ring and sport, Jalolov is a patriot too.Every January 14 he celebrates Uzbekistan’s military holiday by donning their combat fatigues.World title next yearBy Wally Downes JrBAKHODIR JALOLOV will get his world title shot in 2025.A second Olympic gold in Paris at the start of August will only strengthen his case but he already has most of boxing’s powerbrokers firmly in his corner.Heavyweight kingmaker Turki Alalshikh has already hosted the amateur star in Saudi Arabia and promoter Bob Arum knew he was dedicated to competing at the 2024 Games when he signed him last year, so the wheels are turning perfectly.Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois will decide an IBF boss on September 21 and Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury will settle their two-fight rivalry three months later.Then Jalolov will join in-form giants like Joseph Parker and Agit Kabayel – who have seriously impressed in the Middle East since its takeover – in competing for the four major titles that are bound to fragment.Brit prodigy Moses Itauma seems nailed on for the top too but Jalolov has over a decade of experience on him and two Olympic gold medals would definitely put him at the head of the mega-money queue.Saudi is hosting a US show on August 3 in Los Angeles – featuring Andy Ruiz, Martin Bakole and Jared Anderson – and an eye-catching win for one of those hulks will sling them in the mix too.But Jalolov – complete with his rare heavyweight stance, his size, amateur pedigree and power – will be the golden bloke of 2025.Read more from Wally Downes Jr.And in 2020 – to mark the May 9 Uzbek Memorial Day – he showed off his rifle handling skills flanked by soldiers.In Paris, if the form book is to be believed, Jalolov should meet Team GB’s hero Delicious Orie in a mouth-watering semi-final clash.READ MORE SUN STORIESThe Russia-born Brit with the beautiful backstory will need to add another chapter to his tale to win, after suffering three 2024 defeats
