      “I always tell people when I fight, I’ve got nothing to lose, I’m gaining everything, and when I go in there, the mentally is different.

      DEONTAY WILDER is still hard at work in the gym – despite the postponement of his trilogy fight with Tyson Fury.The former WBC champion was due to renew his rivalry with Fury last month but saw their third encounter postponed when the Gypsy King tested positive for Covid.

      The third instalment of Fury vs Wilder is now set to take place on October 9, but the American has seemingly not taken any time off following the rescheduling of their July showdown.
      Wilder’s coach Malik Scott recently shared a clip of them drilling combinations on the pads to his Instagram page.
      The clip showed the Bronze Bomber landing thunderous shots, which he mixed in with some nice footwork.
      Boxing fans were quick to comment, with one saying: “He looks good on the pads but let’s see how he deals with the pressure of someone walking towards him.
      “Can he move his head and counter punch? Will he able to keep his balance and stay on his feet?
      “Will his stamina be affected from moving around more?”
      Another said: “He looks so uncomfortable this just doesn’t come natural to him sorry but learning how to box a bit isn’t going change nothing he’ll just go back to his wild swings, Tyson gonna beat his ass again.”

      And another said: “Hopefully his power is still there and he does well.”
      One remarked: “That’s right take your title back.”
      Fan favourite Fury registered a stunning seventh-round stoppage of Wilder in their rematch last February, which saw him complete a fairytale return to the summit of the sport.
      And the Brit’s cousin expects Andy Lee him to turn in an even better display in their third clash.
      He told iFL TV: “I think he’ll do it earlier than he did the first time.
      “But I still think it’ll be an extremely dangerous fight because Wilder will be fresh and highly motivated.

      “He’ll probably be motivated by having a new trainer, learning new things.
      “He’ll probably be enthusiastic now, but I still don’t know how he’s [Wilder] going to recover mentally from that fight.
      “It’s going to take a huge effort mentally to come back from that defeat and the manner of that defeat the first time.”

      “I can see if you fought those type of opponents with those records, then people can say, ‘OK, you’re actually not bad’.

      Tyson Fury is not on Anthony Joshua’s mind ‘right now’ as world champion gears up for tricky test against Oleksandr Usyk

      by

      ANTHONY JOSHUA has put his failed showdown with Tyson Fury to the back of his mind as he gears up for his clash with Oleksandr Usyk, according to his physio Rob Madden.AJ was due to face his fellow Brit in a multi-million-pound undisputed heavyweight title bout this weekend before Fury was ordered to have a trilogy fight with Deontay Wilder.

      Joshua is now preparing for a September defence of his unified titles against the undefeated Usyk and is focused solely on becoming the first man to defeat to former undisputed cruiserweight champ.
      Madden told The Daily Mail: “I’m not going to lie, it was disappointing for everyone. I was disappointed, obviously AJ very much so.
      ‘He was ready, he wanted it, we were planning for it. But this is boxing, it’s full of politics.
      “Fury’s not on our minds right now; he can do what he’s doing and we’ll be ready when he is.
      “But Usyk is a tough opponent who demands respect – which he has from AJ and the team.
      “And having that focus is crucial, because Usyk is not a nobody. If you know boxing, you know Usyk is a very, very talented fighter.”
      Fury’s not on our minds right nowAnthony Joshua’s physio, Rob Madden
      Joshua, 31, launched a blistering attack on Fury after the collapse of their long-awaited Battle of Britain, tweeting: “@Tyson_Fury the world now sees you for the fraud you are. You’ve let boxing down!
      “You lied to the fans and led them on. Used my name for clout not a fight.
      “Bring me any championship fighter who can handle their business correctly.”
      But the unified champ is now relishing the opportunity to hand fellow Olympic gold medallist Usyk his first professional loss.
      He said: “The date is set and we are fully locked in.
      “September 25, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, I put it all on the line again and it’s time to defend my crown.

      “We are two Olympic gold medallists who have fought our way to the top and never avoided challenges.
      “The stadium is exceptional, the atmosphere will be electric, I’m honoured to be the first person to fight in such an awe-inspiring venue.

      Fury is “hopeful” Athena will come out of intensive care today and added that wife Paris is “doing great”.
      The Gypsy King announced the birth of Athena, his sixth child, on social media on Sunday.
      Fury wrote on Instagram this morning: “Massive thanks for all the messages and support.
      “The baby is in a stable position and doing well – hopefully she comes out of ICU today.
      “Please keep baby Athena in your prayers.
      “Paris is doing great. God bless.”

      Mike Tyson blasted for being too stoned to speak during Hotboxin’ podcast with Khabib after smoking ‘whole bag of weed’

      by

      FANS have claimed that Mike Tyson was ‘too stoned to speak’ during his recent Hotboxin’ podcast with Khabib Nurmagomedov.Iron Mike – who recently sat down with the former UFC champion – runs his own marijuana ranch and has revealed he smokes £33,000 of weed every month.
      Fans have claimed that Mike Tyson was too stoned to speak to Khabib Nurmagomedov
      Iron Mike smoking is a signature of his highly popular Hotboxin’ podcast
      The former heavyweight champ has also been selling cannabis products since 2016 that are as potent as one of his uppercuts.
      Tyson often incorporates the class-C drug into his podcast with the interviews regularly taking place in a ‘studio full of smoke’.
      The 55-year-old didn’t light up during his latest appearance out of respect for Khabib – who is a devout Muslim and does not drink or take any other substances.
      But many fans speculated that this meant Tyson got high beforehand, and as a result, left co-host Henry Cejudo to facilitate much of the conversation.

      One commented: “Are we just gonna ignore the fact that Mike apparently smoked the whole bag of weed before the podcast to not disrespect Khabib while talking to him, but it ended in Mike just not talking for almost the whole podcast because he’s high asf?”
      Another joked: “Mike’s been visiting the spiritual realm. He was there in physical form, but spiritually, he was on another planet.”
      A third added: “Man its sad that Mike was so high in this interview. He didn’t contribute much and he’s normally so eloquent.
      “I get it’s hotboxin but at this point triple C pretty much had to take control as Mike was in his own dimension…”

      After their last fight, he belted out American Pie to his adoring wife – but what do we know about Paris Fury?Who is Paris?
      Tyson met Paris around 16 years ago at a wedding of mutual friends when she was just 15.
      Like Tyson, who grew up in a gypsy family in Wythenshawe, Manchester, she was also raised in a traditional traveller family in Doncaster, South Yorkshire.
      The pair met again by chance at Paris’s 16th birthday party and took up together, going to the cinema and ice skating every weekend.
      He is 6ft 9ins and she is 5ft 8ins.

      The heavyweight superstar has likened boxing to marriage.
      He said: “Boxing is like a marriage – you have to work at it. You do fall in and out of love.
      “But I have spiced it back up again, bought her some sexy lingerie and we are back at it, better than ever.”What was their wedding like?
      The couple had a traditional wedding in front of more than 300 guests in Paris’ home town in November 2008.
      In keeping with the travellers’ tradition they didn’t sleep together until their wedding night.
      Paris explained: “Even after we got engaged, Tyson would sleep in a caravan at my parents’ home, while I slept inside the house.”
      How many children do the couple have?
      The couple have six, after welcoming the latest to their brood on August 8, 2021.
      They have welcomed a girl called Athena, who follows their third son Prince Adonis Amaziah.
      He came along just over a year after their fourth child, Valencia Amber.
      They are also parents to three other children – Prince John James, Venezuela and Prince Tyson Fury II.
      She told Tyson she was pregnant with Prince John James less than 24 hours before his famous world ­heavyweight boxing ­championship victory against Wladimir Klitschko in 2015.
      Paris revealed she suffered a miscarriage on the day of the Gypsy King’s comeback fight against Albanian Sefer Seferi. 
      But she did not let him know until after the bout.

      She said: “I was about eight weeks pregnant. Then on the day of the fight I knew I’d lost our baby.
      “I didn’t mention it to Tyson before he went in the ring.
      “Then straight after I told him and the next day we went to the hospital and it was confirmed.
      “Five weeks later we fell pregnant again.” More
