      Tyson Fury has steak night at home with wife Paris showing off his secret ingredient – lashings of Worcestershire sauce

      Fury, 33, and wife Paris, 31, both enjoyed a steak feast at home on Monday.
      The Gypsy King uploaded several snaps to Instagram stories showing them preparing the slap-up meal.
      Fury cooked the juicy slabs of meat on a large outdoor BBQ grill.
      Meanwhile, Paris prepared a delicious Diane sauce on the oven hob.
      And the pair revealed their secret ingredient to give the meal an extra edge – lashing of Worcestershire sauce.
      The protein-laden meal is sure to give Fury even more strength for his new fight after beating Deontay Wilder yet again.

      Fury was expecting the WBC to order a fight against No1 contender Dillian Whyte.
      But, in a dramatic twist, the WBC refused to mandate the fight until interim champ Whyte drops or concludes the legal cases he has against them over the infuriating delay to his world title shot.
      And Fury has now given Whyte a three-month deadline to get his issues with the WBC sorted.
      Fury told IFL: “I thought I was going to be fighting Dillian Whyte but I don’t know what he has going on in his private life with the WBC.
      “He has a court case going on and it’s kind of s***** because I know how long arbitrations can take because my own one with Deontay Wilder took 18 months.
      “I hope he does not get caught in the long grass and I hope I don’t get forced into another fight like a voluntary defence.
      “But I don’t care because they are all just work-outs for me, I will destroy them all like I have done all my life.
      “It does not matter if it is Dillian Whyte, Dillian Blue or Dillian Grey.
      “I am not interested in waiting around for other people, I will be fighting again in February, early March latest, defending my WBC heavyweight world title.”

      Williams meanwhile got his chance at the WBO middleweight crown in the summer, but fell on the wrong side of an unanimous decision against Demetrius Andrade.
      This will be the Welshman’s first bout in Cardiff since 2018, where he scored an emphatic second round KO of Craig Nicholson.
      There is no love-lost between the two fighters and this Best of British fight could be one of the highlights of 2021.
      When is Eubank Jr vs Williams?

      This big domestic dust-up is set for Saturday, December 11.
      It will be held at the Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff, which will house around 7,000 fight fans.
      The evening’s entertainment will start around 6pm, with the main event around 10pm GMT.

      Which TV channel and live stream can I watch it on?
      You will be able to watch every jab, duck and upper-cut on Sky Sports Arena.
      Exact times are yet to be confirmed but it is likely the evening’s entertainment will broadcast from 7pm.
      If you’re not a Sky customer, you can watch by grabbing a NOW TV pass from £9.99.
      SunSport will be running a dedicated live blog for this fight, so you don’t miss any of the drama.

      Who else is fighting on the undercard?
      As yet, the final card is yet to be confirmed.
      But as of November 16, here’s how things are looking for fight night in the Welsh capital:

      Chris Eubank Jr vs Liam Williams (middleweight)
      Claressa Shields vs Ema Kozin (women’s WBC, WBA, IBF, WBF middlweight title)
      Samuel Antwi vs Conah Walker (BBBofC English welterweight title)
      Rhys Edwards vs TBC
      Bradley Rea vs TBC

      What they said
      Eubank Jr: “I’m no stranger to going into the lion’s den. I’ve been booed into arenas many times before.
      “It doesn’t affect me. If anything, it makes me fight harder, if the crowd is against me. Not to say that I’m hoping they are. I hope that I receive a warm welcome.
      “But either way, I’m going to go in there and get the job done.”
      Williams: “He’s a pretender. He just wants to make people believe that he’s at a certain level and everybody else is irrelevant and a no one, but the reality of it is he’s a clown.”
      “We both have a style where we want to be involved in good fights and we can’t help but be involved in them because we are both gutsy fighters.
      “The fans are going to be the winners.” More

      ‘I’m ready to die’ – Boxer Hassan N’Dam chillingly begs referee not to stop fight despite horror beating

      by

      BOXER Hassan N’Dam chillingly begged a referee not to stop his fight and said: ‘I’m ready to die’. The former middleweight champion featured on the undercard of Terence Crawford’s win over Shawn Porter.

      N’Dam faced and was beaten by unbeaten Kazakh Janibek Alimkhanuly, dubbed a potential successor to Gennady Golovkin, 39.
      The French-Cameroonian veteran, 37, was dominated over eight rounds before the fight was finally stopped.
      But N’Dam protested the finish and could be heard saying in the corner: “No, no, no. No, I’m ready to die.”
      Alimkhanuly, 28, moved to 11–0 with his seventh knockout, while N’Dam was beaten for the third time in four fights.
      He can be remembered by British fans for beating Martin Murray, 39, in 2018 but losing to Callum Smith, 31, a year later.
      After the win, Alimkhanuly said: “I am ready for a world title shot next.

      FREE BETS: GET OVER £2,000 IN NEW CUSTOMER DEALS
      “‘Qazaq Style’ is about to take over the middleweight division. Any champion, it doesn’t matter.”
      “I must give credit to N’Dam, a tough former champion who took a lot of punishment.”
      In the main-event, Crawford, 34, became the first man to ever stop Porter, 34, inside the distance.
      The American former two-time champion was twice dropped and then pulled out by his trainer and dad Kenny.

      Tommy Fury’s dad sheds light on his fight purse for Jake Paul bout and reveals he is earning more than ‘world champions’

      by

      JOHN FURY revealed his son Tommy will earn more than ‘some world champions’ for his fight with Jake Paul. The celebrity fighting rivals are set to put unbeaten record, reputations and bragging rights on the line against each other.

      They fight over eight rounds at a 192lb catchweight on December 18 in Florida, which will be pay-per-view in the US and UK.
      And with their combined fanbases sure to tune in, Tommy’s dad and coach John predicted it makes for a blockbuster cheque.
      He told entrepreneur Rob Moore: “Listen, Tommy’s getting paid more money for this than some world champions.
      “He’s getting paid in the millions, so if we get millions for getting wet we’re gonna do it, because it’s good business.”
      Tommy, 22, comes into the fight 7-0 and more experienced than YouTube star Paul, 24, who is facing his first opponent of prior professional boxing experience.
      The social media star previously beat YouTuber ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson, 37, and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, also 37.

      FREE BETS: GET OVER £2,000 IN NEW CUSTOMER DEALS
      But he beat ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39, in his last fight, with Paul winning against his sparring partner Anthony Taylor, 32, on the undercard.
      It set the grudge match up, but John admitted the rivalry could continue as they eye big brother Logan, 26, afterwards.
      He said: “If he’s on his game, Tommy, and he’s firing on all four cylinders.
      “Easy night’s work, easy money and the winner goes on to bigger and better things.
      “We’ll get the brother out the game as well, then we’ll start looking at conventional titles for him.

      “A brother is gonna wanna redeem another brother isn’t he. When he knocks Jake Paul out, the brother’s gonna wanna take his part ain’t he.
      “But I don’t think so because the hiding Tommy’s gonna give Jake Paul, the other brother won’t be interested either.”
      Logan is the most inexperienced of the trio, having only three times boxed before.
      Firstly, he drew with online rival KSI, 28, in a 2018 white collar bout but won the rematch a year later by split-decision when they turned pro.
      But in June he returned for a sensational exhibition with boxing legend Floyd Mayweather, 44, which went the distance.
      After technically avoiding defeat to Mayweather, Logan is now in rumoured talks with heavyweight icon Mike Tyson, 55, who made his return last November.

      Tyson Fury’s wife Paris jokes first-class plane passengers ‘dread’ sitting near them and their kids

      by

      PARIS FURY recalled first-class plane passengers ‘dread’ sitting near their huge family – but revealed the kids were on best behaviour. The mum-of-six and heavyweight husband Tyson are known for their down to earth and family orientated lifestyle.
      Tyson and Paris Fury with their beloved six childrenCredit: Instagram
      She said on a Parenting Hell podcast they usually fly economy but occasionally go first class.
      It led to comedians Rob Beckett and Josh Widdicombe to ask how other passengers react, and Paris said: “I think it’s pure dread.
      “I remember we went once in first class. We all had our own beds.Normally we fly economy because it’s easier.
      “For me to fly in the normal seats it’s so much easier because they’re all rowed up next to me.
      “So this time, somebody had booked our flight and we were all in first class.
      “So we went in and they’re following in and people’s faces are like ‘oh my gosh, you’re going to ruin our flight’.

      “But, to be honest, the kids are really good. They’re really used to it, so I think the first half hour when they were climbing into each others’ beds, that was a bit embarrassing.
      “But once they settled down and they got the cartoons going again, no problem.”
      Paris, 31, and childhood sweetheart Tyson have Venezuela, 12, Prince John James nine, Prince Tyson Fury II, four, Valencia Amber, three, Prince Adonis Amaziah, two, and three month old Athena together.
      The Gypsy King’s career as a two-time world champion has seen him travel the world, and bring his beloved family with him.
      Paris said: “The kids come first. That’s why they’ve been everywhere with us.
      “If we travel abroad they come with us. They’ve been in training camps, they’ve been all around Europe.
      “It’s like a military process. You’ve got to have the right amount of bags, the right amount of sweets given before you get on.
      “It’s definitely hard work, but what is it, 12 hours out of your life, you’ve got to do that big long flight, and then we’re there.
      “A couple of times I’ve flown out to America or back from America, just myself with the children.
      “I do get a pat on the back for that flight and I think I deserve it. I see some people stressing with one, and I think ‘no, one’s easy, one’s no problem.”

      Watch Tommy Fury show off slick defence in sparring against 6ft 7in boxer as footage leaks ahead of Jake Paul fight

      by

      TOMMY FURY’S slick defence has been revealed in leaked sparring footage ahead of his fight with Jake Paul. The British star faces YouTube sensation Paul on December 18 in Florida over eight rounds.
      Leaked footage of Tommy Fury sparringCredit: Instagram
      Tommy Fury is sparring 6ft 7in unbeaten cruiserweight Andrey MangushevCredit: Instagram

      And a clip of Fury sparring 6ft 7in unbeaten cruiserweight Andrey Mangushev has recently being doing the rounds on social media and YouTube.
      But the video is believed to be old, and may have been taken when the 2019 Love Islander was in America with brother Tyson in the summer.
      Nevertheless, Fury’s defensive skills, slipping and parrying punches, as well as countering, were on full display.
      Mangushev, based in Miami and 5-0, is a lot taller and experienced than Paul, and his promotional team Warriors Boxing appear to have released the footage.
      Fury, 22, was in Florida with brother Tyson in the summer and returned to England and beat Jordan Grant in June.
      In his next fight, he beat Paul’s sparring partner Anthony Taylor, the night the social media star won against ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39.

      It set the pair up for their celebrity grudge match, but Fury has been based in Morecambe where he is being trained by Tyson.
      And his sparring has all been under the watchful eye on the Gypsy King, in their private gym.
      Meanwhile, Paul, 24, has been preparing for the second time in a row in Puerto Rico.
      He is currently 4-0, with prior wins over YouTuber ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson, 37, and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, also 37.
      Fury, who is 7-0, is usually coached and cornered by his dad John, but the father is unable to travel Stateside due to a prior criminal conviction.

      It means Tyson, 33, and his trainer Sugarhill Steward are set to lead the charge come fight night.
      Fury was in Las Vegas with Sugarhill but was forced to fly back due to a family emergency.
      He will now remain in the UK until the final two weeks where he will link up with Sugarhill once more.
      The trainer told iFL TV: “He’s in good hands with trainer T over there. Any fighter I train can train other fighters, that’s just the way I teach it.
      “He’s ok with Tyson over there. I’ll see those guys when they come over to the US, which is probably 10 or 11 days prior to the fight.
      “We’ll put this all together then it’s knockout time baby.”

      Tyson Fury shares old pics of him and Dillian Whyte together before friends became enemies and started rowing over fight

      TYSON FURY shared old pictures of himself and Dillian Whyte before their friendship turned sour. The heavyweights were once training and sparring partners, but have since become enemies.
      Tyson Fury shared old pictures of himself and Dillian Whyte before their friendship turned sour
      And their rivalry is close to being settled in the ring for Fury’s WBC title after years of Whyte calling him out.
      But it was not always so bitter between the British pair, as the Gypsy King uploaded a series of pictures of them together.
      He posted on Twitter: “Funny how people treat you when you are good to them.”
      Earlier in the day, Whyte uploaded a picture on Instagram and captioned it: “The coward really doesn’t want any smoke.
      “I can’t wait for my moment, it will be a special night.”
      Whyte, 33, is the WBC ‘interim’ champion and in turn the mandatory challenger for the title.

      The 13 per cent Fury references in his social media dig could be a taunt to what he will offer his rival in negotiations.
      If the fight goes to purse bids, the WBC can determine the split depending on the two fighters’ last three fight earnings.
      But the legal case Whyte launched against the WBC has actually prevented him from being officially ordered to fight Fury, 33.
      The unbeaten champion himself was locked in a lengthy legal dispute this year after he tried to fight Anthony Joshua, 32.
      But he failed to get out of his contracted trilogy bout with Deontay Wilder, 36, which he later won in round 11 last month.
      Fury sympathises for Whyte but warned he will not go through another drawn out arbitration process.
      He told iFL TV: “I thought I was going to be fighting Dillian Whyte but I don’t know what he has going on in his private life with the WBC.

      “He has a court case going on and it’s kind of s* because I know how long arbitrations can take because my own one with Deontay Wilder took 18 months.
      “I hope he does not get caught in the long grass and I hope I don’t get forced into another fight like a voluntary defence.
      “But I don’t care because they are all just work-outs for me, I will destroy them all like I have done all my life.
      “It does not matter if it is Dillian Whyte, Dillian Blue or Dillian Grey.
      “I am not interested in waiting around for other people, I will be fighting again in February, early March latest, defending my WBC heavyweight world title.”
