      Jake Paul reveals his four goals for 2022 including ‘save Floyd Mayweather from bankruptcy’ as he reignites their feud

      by

      JAKE PAUL has taken aim at Floyd Mayweather once more after revealing his goals for 2022.The YouTuber fought three times last year, beating Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley twice as he took his professional boxing record to 5-0.

      Meanwhile, Jake’s brother Logan Paul fought Mayweather in an exhibition bout in June of 2021.
      And while there were no judges on hand to score the contest, it was widely acknowledged that the 50-0 legend comfortably won the eight-round bout.
      Mayweather landed 43 punches of 107 thrown compared to Paul’s 28 landed of 217 thrown.
      Now Logan’s brother Jake has taken the opportunity to fire back at Mayweather – six months after the pair became embroiled in a press conference altercation when the internet sensation stole the boxer’s hat.
      Speaking on Twitter, Jake said: “Some people are asking about my 2022 goals. Here they are.
      “1. Buy Mayweather Promotions and save them from bankruptcy.

      “2. Hire stylist for Floyd Mayweather.
      “3. Take selfie with Oprah.
      “4. Go 2 chiropractor 2 heal back from carrying the sport of boxing.”
      Paul ended the year with a sensational knockout of Woodley as he put to bed the closeness of their first fight – which he won by split decision.
      And the sixth round KO was enough to earn him the ESPN Knockout of the Year award – although some boxing fans were furious at Paul being given the accolade.
      There have also been accusations that the pay-per-view numbers for the Woodley rematch were poor.
      But last week Paul hit back at those claims with a rant on social media.
      He said: “The PPV number rumours are bulls***. First fight with Woodley we sold 500k+.

      All British boxing SUSPENDED in January due to Covid with Chris Eubank Jr vs Liam Williams rescheduled again

      by

      THE British Boxing Board of Control have officially confirmed that they’ve suspended all British boxing in January due to Covid.The decision means Chris Eubank Jr’s January 29 fight against Liam Williams will be rescheduled AGAIN.
      Eubank Jr vs Williams will be rescheduled after all UK boxing was suspended in January due to CovidCredit: PA
      The fight was originally delayed by six weeks after Williams picked up a shoulder injury.
      And the delay pushes Eubank Jr’s plans for a title fight against Gennady Golovkin back even further.
      The 32-year-old says GGG wants to fight in England, and he insists he’ll be able to sell out a football stadium.
      He told The Daily Mail: “He’s a great champion whose been in my sights a long time and who I would be proud to fight.
      “He says he wants to fight again in England and he and I would pack a football stadium.
      “He doesn’t have any other options as good as that unless Canelo Alvarez wants to fight him again. Which looks doubtful.”

      The suspension has left boxing fans fearing for Amir Khan vs Kell Brook.
      Although the fight is scheduled to take place in early February, an extension of the suspension could see that fight rescheduled too.
      One fan said on Twitter: “What about Khan/Brook? If that gets cancelled, they better not move it abroad.”
      The milder but easily transmissible Omicron has seen the UK’s Covid cases top 180k a day.
      But vaccines have played their part in keeping the most vulnerable safe.
      Covid booster jabs protect against Omicron and offer the best chance to get through the pandemic, health officials have repeatedly said.
      The Sun’s Jabs Army campaign is helping get the vital extra vaccines in Brits’ arms to ward off the need for any new restrictions, especially for sports events. More

      Six mega boxing bouts we want to see in 2022 including Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua and Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence

      by

      LUC DE CLAPIERS, an 18th Century French philosopher, said “Patience is the art of hoping” — a sentiment that can be applied to every boxing fan.Tomorrow sees the dawn of a bright new year so I have chosen six fights that would surely have the juices flowing and make 2022 spellbinding and memorable.

      Being a pragmatist I realise that thanks to the political cynicism and greed of the world governing bodies and the intransigence of rival TV with their vested interests few, if any, will happen.
      That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t embrace the De Clapiers ideology, so here goes.
      Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua
      Where British punters are concerned this is the fight they want above all others.
      Since Joshua won the IBF version of the world title five years ago, frustratingly we have been waiting for it to take place but it still seems to be as far away as Neptune — 2.9billion miles from Earth.
      My fear is Joshua will lose again when he has his return with Oleksandr Usyk in the spring.

      So the blitzkrieg between Fury and Joshua — potentially the richest fight held in this country — would then end up in the dusty pigeon-hole marked ‘What might have been’.
      And the arguments about who would have been the winner can rage on forever.
      Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence Jr
      Unfortunately, these days getting two elite fighters to face each other — and these two are ranked just behind Canelo Alvarez as pound-for-pound the best there is — is a rarity.
      A welterweight unification scrap between Crawford and Spence, both unbeaten multi-world champions would create the kind of interest generated by Floyd Mayweather Jr and Manny Pacquiao, six years ago.
      And it would be no surprise if it turned out to be Fight of the Year.
      Boxing fans are desperate to see Errol Spence Jr and Terence Crawford go at it next year
      Anthony Yarde vs Joshua Buatsi
      There’s nothing like a good old domestic punch-up and the outcome between Commonwealth champion Yarde and the unbeaten Buatsi would determine who is Britain’s best light-heavyweight.
      To add spice to the occasion, Yarde is promoted by Frank Warren and Buatsi by Eddie Hearn.

      Josh Taylor vs Gervonta Davis
      Taylor is one of six men to be a unified world champ. And the unbeaten super-lightweight has earned the right to be compared favourably with legendary fellow Scot Ken Buchanan.
      Davis, who fights like a pocket battleship with all guns blazing, is also unbeaten and a three-time world champion.
      The Baltimore bad boy has been arrested many times for a variety of offences and is facing a seven-year jail sentence for allegedly running a red light, hitting another vehicle and putting the four occupants in hospital.
      What a war these two would have.

      Mairis Briedis vs Lawrence Okolie
      Just how good is Okolie, London’s WBO cruiserweight champion?
      He has certainly had a comfortable ride so far.
      Give him a real test against IBF champion Briedis, whose only defeat in a 30-fight career was against Usyk, and we will find out.

      Gennady Golovkin vs Chris Eubank Jr
      Golovkin, the IBF middleweight champ, is four months from his 40th birthday and Father Time is snapping at his heels.
      There’s no doubt Triple G, though still a dangerous puncher, is in decline.
      Eubank would have every chance of being the first British fighter to beat him — Michael Murray, Matt Macklin and Kell Brook were all KO’d.

      Raducanu won a stunning US Open, Olympians triumphed in Tokyo and England had everyone on board before Euros turned ugly

      by

      IT was a weird and wonderful sporting year which served up a fairytale in New York, a robbery in Abu Dhabi, the Ghost Games of Tokyo and the familiar agony of penalty shootout defeat for England.The year began with fans being sorely missed, as the behind-closed-doors era dragged on.

      Then football supporters were lauded for their leading role in smashing the hated breakaway European Super League.
      But as stadiums began to fill, England was shamed by a drink-and-drugs-fuelled mob which severely tarnished the national team’s first major tournament final in 55 years.
      The vandalism at Wembley before that Euros final defeat by Italy was as depressing as the breathtaking arrogance of 12 clubs — including the Premier League’s Big Six — threatening to shred the fabric of football with their roped-off Super League.
      The scheme met with revulsion and ridicule, as it was torpedoed in little more than 48 hours — even managing to overshadow Tottenham sacking Jose Mourinho six days before their Carabao Cup final against Manchester City.
      That grubby Super League plot laughed in the face of the idea that anything can happen in sport.
      But in September, at Flushing Meadows, the very essence of the impossible dream arrived when an 18-year-old tennis player from Kent became the first qualifier to win a women’s Grand Slam singles event and the first British woman to claim a major title since Virginia Wade in 1977.

      Emma Raducanu’s extraordinary campaign at the US Open stands alone as a British sporting story — in this, or any other year.
      Ten matches, ten straight-sets victories, culminating in a 6-4 6-3 final triumph against Leylah Fernandez — a nerveless exhibition from a youngster whose first Grand Slam, at Wimbledon, ended with a medical retirement and her mettle being doubted.
      How wrong could they have been?
      Ireland’s Rachael Blackmore became the first woman to win the Grand National at Aintree, aboard Minella Times, having already become the first female to be leading jockey at the Cheltenham Festival.
      The only possible contender to Raducanu as Britain’s sportsperson of the year ought to have been Lewis Hamilton, who contested a Formula One title fight for the ages with the young Dutch upstart Max Verstappen, 24.
      Yet Hamilton’s bid for a record eighth world crown was scuppered by the anarchy and farce of a final-lap run-off with Verstappen in Abu Dhabi, as race director Michael Masi fancied himself as a Hollywood director rather than a guardian of the rulebook.
      Raducanu, made an MBE in the New Year Honours list, was not the only English teenager thrust into extreme pressure — Bukayo Saka’s decisive penalty, saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma, meant England’s Euros ended with the cruellest shootout defeat.
      The then 19-year-old, along with fellow subs Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho, suffered sickening online abuse after failing from the spot — although the Arsenal kid felt the warmth of the vast majority of fans and was even given a standing ovation by Spurs supporters in a pre-season friendly.

      England defeated Croatia, the Czech Republic, Germany, Ukraine and Denmark on their glorious march to the final.
      Gareth Southgate proved himself the most successful Three Lions boss since Sir Alf Ramsey, with Raheem Sterling and Harry Kane leading from the front, Kalvin Phillips and Declan Rice indomitable in midfield, while John Stones, Harry Maguire and Kyle Walker formed a formidable all-Yorkshire defensive three.
      And Luke Shaw was the surprise feel-good hit of the summer, enjoying an outstanding tournament and opening the scoring inside two minutes of the final.
      The atmosphere had been joyous and raucous as Southgate’s men came from behind to defeat the Danes in the semi-final.
      But that was in contrast to the carnage of the final, which meant the Three Lions were punished by having to face Italy behind closed doors in the Nations League next year.
      Major sport was plunged back into silence at the Olympics in Tokyo — delayed by a year, yet still unable to provide a crowd’s authentic soundtrack.
      Team GB managed 22 golds, down on their tally from Rio and London but still a mighty achievement compared to a generation ago.
      Adam Peaty became the first Brit to retain an Olympic swimming title and, like his team-mate Tom Dean, clinched two golds.
      Jason and Laura Kenny entered the record books by claiming yet more medals in TokyoCredit: PA
      Cycling spouses Jason and Laura Kenny entered the record books. Fifteen Olympic medals now reside in their Cheshire home — a dozen of them gold.
      After 13 years of trying, diver Tom Daley finally topped the podium, alongside Matty Lee, in the ten-metre synchronised.
      The Olympics also brought mental health into sharp focus as its brightest global star, American gymnast Simone Biles, pulled out of the women’s team final, claiming she felt ‘the weight of the world’ on her shoulders.
      That same week, Ben Stokes — perhaps England’s most fiercely-competitive sportsman — took a four-month break from cricket to prioritise his mental health.
      Biles and Stokes were bold with their honesty, proving even the greatest are vulnerable, especially when living under stifling Covid restrictions.
      In football, Thomas Tuchel inherited a mid-table Chelsea side from Frank Lampard, smashed up Pep Guardiola’s hopes of a Quadruple and delivered a second European Cup to Stamford Bridge.
      Manchester City regained their Premier League crown with ease but Tuchel’s team beat Guardiola’s men in three different competitions, climaxing in a Champions League final victory in Porto.

      Leicester defeated Chelsea to win a first FA Cup, five years on from their title glory, but for the second successive year a late collapse saw them miss out on the Champions League.
      Manchester United, meanwhile, shambled on — despite pulling off the league’s most eye-catching signing of 2021 with the return of Cristiano Ronaldo.
      Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, a caretaker who should never have been a permanent boss, was replaced by a caretaker in Michael Carrick, then an interim in Ralf Rangnick who wants to be the permanent manager.
      Outside of Old Trafford the year’s biggest letdown was the failure of Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury to get it on and settle the undisputed world heavyweight boxing crown.
      When American judges ordered Fury to complete his trilogy against Deontay Wilder, that much-anticipated all-British contest was toast.
      Joshua was outclassed by Oleksandr Usyk at Tottenham — not the only comprehensive away win there during Nuno Espirito Santo’s reign — as he lost his three belts.
      After that, the prospects of Joshua-Fury ever happening were reduced further still.

      At least Fury and Wilder served up a third epic, with the Gypsy King stopping the Alabama slugger in the 11th round in Vegas.
      The British and Irish Lions were defeated by world champs South Africa, Europe were thrashed by the United States in the Ryder Cup and England’s cricketers have already lost The Ashes.
      But the greatest disappointment of all were the dark clouds of Covid gathering as the year draws to a close — threatening our lives, our freedom, and that most important of unimportant things, our sport.

      Paul’s viral sixth-round KO of Woodley was among the contenders for the finish of the year and won the honour by a landslide.
      But longtime followers of the sweet science were far from happy, with one saying: “It was a brutal KO, but I kinda feel bad for the actual boxers like [Oscar]Valdez who kinda deserve it more IMO
      Another said: “State of boxing nowadays.”
      And another said: “This is effing ridiculous.”
      One remarked: “ESPN Ringside turned their back on professional boxers who actually fought their hearts out in Title Fights!
      “For a million-dollar gimmick KO!”

      Another chimed in: “So KOing people who aren’t boxers wins awards now? How far boxing has fallen.”
      One merely said: “Taking the p**s.”
      Paul’s stunning KO of former UFC welterweight champ Woodley prompted claims their fight was a ‘fixed’.
      But that notion has been rubbished by Woodley’s long-time coach Din Thomas, who said during an appearance on Sirius XM Radio: “That whole theory, it makes me laugh.
      “Because being in his camp, I know how serious it was.
      “It was seriously like Tyron really wanted this win back, he really wanted this fight and it was a serious thing.
      “Now, if it was a dive, I wish they told me about it because I wouldn’t have shown up and taken the night off.
      “I’d be like partying but that wasn’t the case. I mean it was a real, legit fight.”
      Former Disney star Paul, 24, was due to lock horns with Tommy Fury this month before the Love Islander withdrew from their grudge match due to illness and injury.
      But the Problem Child is seemingly not interested in facing the youngest Fury brother any time soon.

      He said: “I don’t really know what’s next on the roadmap. I’ve done it all, I’ve accomplished what I want to accomplish.
      “I need to take a break, I’ve been going at this non-stop for a year and a half and it’s a lot.
      “I’m exhausted, I need to spend time with my family at Christmas and go on a vacation, I haven’t gone on a vacation since I was 18 years old.”

      The Problem Child looks set for a seven-month break after extending his undefeated streak to five fights, none of which saw him facing a professional boxer.
      The American’s extended break kicked off with a trip to Puerto Rico where he spent time with Julia as well as his older brother Logan.
      The YouTuber-turned-boxer than flew to St Bart’s in the Caribbean to celebrate his girlfriend’s birthday alongside close friends.
      Paul shared a story on his personal Instagram account that included another intimate pic with his “queen”.

      Paul recently called Iron Mike out to a fight as he named the boxing legend in his five-man ‘boxing bucket list’.
      He also included Canelo Alvarez, Floyd Mayweather, Tyson Fury and UFC president Dana White.
      Tyson came out of retirement in November at the age of 55 for an exhibition with Roy Jones Jr, which ended in a draw after eight rounds.
      The American is considered as one of the greatest boxers of all time as he won 50 out of 58 fights, 44 of which were by knockout, and only lost six times.

      But he spent time with the undefeated 44-year-old legend on Friday and thanked the Money Man for his help.
      The former WBA, IBF and WBO champ was filmed punching a hanging aqua bag and captioned the clip: “The best to do it and always helping the next generation. Big respect champ.”
      Joshua warmed up with childhood friend Sina Ghami, bobbing and weaving under a towel the personal trainer was waving to imitate punches being thrown.
      And he moved on to whacking the heavy bag with straight shots, hooks and uppercuts, with Mayweather close by analysing the action.
      Boxing fans were quick to comment on the pair training together, with one saying: “Floyd has a better boxing IQ than anyone in boxing and fought every style so yeah he can help AJ.”
      Another said: “We love to see it.

      And, while getting some warm-weather work in the UAE, he has been hitting the pads with Anthony ‘Chill’ Wilson at the exclusive Binous gym.
      But he had an extra special guest in Mayweather, who has been in the region promoting a number of business ventures across his social media channels.
      Joshua sorted Mayweather VIP seats for his December win over Kubrat Pulev and was proud to have impressed him, beaming afterwards: “It was an honour to have him in the house.

      “I respect him highly for what he has achieved.
      “He came to see me perform and I pulled off one of his favourite moves – the pull-counter.”
      Joshua, 32, suffered a lopsided points defeat in his Tottenham tussle with Usyk in September but will have the chance to exact revenge on the slick southpaw next year.
      SunSport understands the pair’s rematch is tentatively slated for late March.
      Promoter Eddie Hearn claimed last month that AJ will make a public announcement regarding his team for the Usyk rematch in the New Year.
      And it looks unlikely he will remain in the UK where his contribution to British sport has made him too much of a hero to be properly challenged.
      The Matchroom boss said: “I feel it might be time to move on from that environment because when you’ve been there since you were 18 and you go into GB and Anthony Joshua is everywhere, he’s a god.

      “I just feel it’s time to rough him up a little bit, not in log cabins in the middle of nowhere. But up there it’s ‘oh my God, it’s AJ!’ because they’re proud of him.
      “It’s not just about who’s training him, it’s about where that’s going to take place.
      “He’s talking to people and I think he will make a decision early in the new year.”

      UFC star Francis Ngannou calls out Tyson Fury AGAIN and believes he can ‘make some damage’ switching to boxing

      by

      UFC superstar Francis Ngannou has challenged Tyson Fury to a fight again as he considers switching to boxing.Ngannou suggested that it is only a matter of time until he swaps the Octagon for the squared circle and has big plans as he wants to “make some damage” against a top heavyweight.

      The reigning UFC Heavyweight Champion has called out the undefeated Fury once more and would also love to lock horns with Deontay Wilder.
      Ngannou told TMZ: “It’s always been down the line. This is something I’m not taking my eyes off of.
      “It’s gonna happen, either way. Even if, when the UFC and I finalise a deal, the boxing part has to be into it because I can’t see myself retire without boxing.
      “Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder. I would like to test myself to that level. It’s not the same sport, although I’m the champion, I’m in the top in this division.
      “At the end of the day, it’s just about like trained hands, trained punches, having a good delivery system to produce bombs and I’m sure that if I deliver my own punch, it’s pretty good, I can make some damage.”
      Ngannou has been vocal about his desire to face British superstar Fury in the near future.

      Cooper previously said: “Tyson Fury right now is the best boxer in the world.
      “Tyson is difficult for any heavyweight because of the attributes, the speed, the boxing ability, the good defence, the confidence and swagger. Tyson’s a real one and Tyson is a tough fight for anybody in boxing.
      Boxing star Tyson Fury and UFC champ Francis Ngannou have been embroiled in a heated rivalry
      “But Francis definitely can fight any heavyweight with time and amending the training a little bit. He can definitely do it because Francis does have power.
      “However with a boxing glove the power would decrease a little bit compared to what it is with the MMA gloves.
      “Because an MMA glove is only 4oz while a boxing glove is 10oz so that makes a difference. A lot of little intangible things.
      “Of course he can box and of course he could eventually beat someone like a Tyson Fury, for sure.”
