    Dillian Whyte taunts ‘p***y’ Deontay Wilder over dramatic bench press video by casually lifting same ‘little’ weight

    DILLIAN WHYTE has taunted ‘p***y’ Deontay Wilder over his overly-dramatic bench press video by casually lifting the same ‘little’ weight.Wilder went crazy after benching 310lbs earlier this week as he prepared for his trilogy fight against Tyson Fury.
    Dillian Whyte branded Deontay Wilder a ‘p***y’ as he lifted the same weight as the American
    Whyte mocked Wilder’s reaction to benching 310lbs by making it look easy
    Wilder’s coach Malik Scott got his American fighter pumped up ahead of the lift.
    And after completing the feat, Wilder aimed a verbal tirade at Fury: “I’m a train baby, you say you’re a semi truck.
    “I’m going to run you over like a freight train. You better get your weight up.”
    But it’s fair to say British ace Whyte was less than impressed.
    Responding to the video, the world title hopeful said : “Look at this clown with the baby bench press.”
    And Whyte today released a video showing him casually doing the same lift with the same weight.
    Whyte fired at Wilder: “These guys are out here screaming doing the little weights.
    “That’s how I know Wilder is a p***y!
    “Wilder screaming with the light weights. Coward. I rep your max.

    “Anytime, anywhere we must fight. Let’s go. Coward.”
    Whyte also took time to respond to Charles Martin after being called out by the ex-heavyweight champ.
    Whyte quipped: “Nothing he says worries me in the slightest. Ravings of a deluded fool.
    “I think even the real Prince Charles would knock him out.”

    Watch Eddie Hall attempt to surpass Francis Ngannou’s WORLD RECORD for hardest punch as he trains for Thor fight

    EDDIE HALL demonstrated his incredible punching power – by attempting to surpass UFC star Francis Ngannou’s world record for the hardest-ever hit.British behemoth Hall, 33, is training for September’s epic Las Vegas battle against former strongman rival Hafthor Bjornsson, 32.

    And the giant, who has already shed six stone, stepped up his preparations by trying his luck on a high-tech machine dubbed the ‘Power Cube’.
    It measures the power of a punch in units, calculating a score based on numerous factors including speed and force.
    The world record is currently held by MMA legend Ngannou, who recorded a mammoth 129,161 units after landing an epic punch in 2017.
    And Hall attempted to be the man to break that number as he unleashed his raw beast power on the cube.
    However, despite giving it everything he got, Hall fell short of Ngannou’s record, landing a high of 113,999.
    But having yet to even take part in a warm-up fight, the 2017 World’s Strongest Man victor can be proud of his efforts.
    Last month, Hall showed off his blistering jab work in a sparring session with unbeaten British pro Lawrence Okolie.
    And he fired a warning shot at Games of Thrones star Bjornsson, warning: “Keeping my head down as training ramps up.

    “Four months until we see Thor’s face down on the floor.”
    But his Icelandic counterpart , the World’s Strongest Man in 2018, responded: “Eddie Hall, you better be training your a** off, because I’m coming for you and I’m knocking you out.
    “You’re going down. I respect you as an athlete and I know you’re training hard, but I am going to knock you out.”

    Deontay Wilder’s chances of beating Tyson Fury slammed as Colbert questions him hiring trainer who he knocked out

    DEONTAY WILDER has made an error making Malik Scott, a boxer he previously knocked out, as his lead coach.That’s the opinion of WBA interim world super-featherweight champion Chris Colbert.

    Wilder KO’d Scott in the very first round of their heavyweight scrap in 2014.
    But now the Bronze Bomber has brought Scott in to lead his training ahead of the trilogy fight against Tyson.
    Colbert remains confused by this move and thinks Fury will beat Wilder again.
    Speaking to FightHype the 24-year-old said: “Fury is going to beat on him. He can’t f*** with Fury.
    “How are you going to learn from somebody you knocked out?
    “I’m trying to figure out what is he [Malik Scott] going to teach him? He [Wilder] said Malik Scott is a boxing genius.
    “Why is he looking so terrible in his fights? He don’t look good in his fights. If you’re a boxing genius, you have a mindset of what you can do.
    “He won’t have a mindset of what you can do. He went in there with Wilder, and Wilder hit his glove, and he dropped to the ground.

    Fury says he will ‘run Wilder over like a freight train’ and says he will come in for Part III at a career heaviest 21st 6lb.
    And Colbert wouldn’t be surprised to see this happen.
    He added: “Whatever he [Fury] says, he does it.
    “You’ve got to listen to him. He told you he was going to stop Wilder. He beat his a**. ”
    Colbert also slammed the ‘excuses’ Wilder made for his February 2020 loss to Fury as ‘terrible’.
    The deposed WBC heavyweight champ first blamed a heavy ringwalk suit, then accused his own coach Mark Breland of ‘spiking his water’ before finally accusing Fury and his team of ‘glove tampering’.
    Breland and Team Fury have strenuously denied the claims.

    But the 26-year-old has bounced back in stunning fashion with four straight victories.
    His current record stands at 12-1.

    His unorthodox sparring partner had opted not to wear protective headgear to share a ring with the promising star.
    It was midway through the first round that he decided to drop his hands.
    He then squared up to Vorobiev and taunted him by roaring straight into his face.
    The Russian did not take kindly to this and responded in furious fashion.
    He unleashed a combo of hooks before delivering a huge left hand.

    In the rematch two years on, he switched up his tactics to go on the offensive, scoring two knockdowns of his own before winning in round seven.
    Fury was not shy about planning a similar game plan when the pair renew their rivalry next month.
    He said: “I gave my game plan away the first time because he wasn’t good enough to do anything about it, I’ll do the same thing this time.
    “Deontay Wilder is a one trick pony, he has one punch power, we all know that, great.
    “What I’ll do to him this time is run him over as if I’m an 18-wheeler and he’s a human being, I guarantee you it does not go past where it did before.
    “I’ve had 18 months of practising what I’m gonna do to him.
    “I want to get up to 300 pounds for this fight and I’m looking for the big knockout straight away.”

    Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury could take place in UK in huge boost to British fans, claims Bob Arum

    ANTHONY JOSHUA could fight Tyson Fury in the UK, according to legendary boxing promoter Bob Arum.The two Brits were set for an undisputed clash this summer, with contracts reportedly agreed and Saudi Arabia the chosen destination.

    Fury’s US promoter Bob Arum says Fury vs Joshua will still happen – and it could be in the UKCredit: AP
    But Deontay Wilder won his arbitration case for a trilogy fight against Fury after his February 2020 battering.
    That is now taking place on July 24, with the Battle of Britain postponed.
    Joshua will now take on Oleksandr Usyk on September 25. And provided both Brits come through their title defences, it is hoped they will finally get it on.
    And Arum hopes it will take place on these shores.
    Speaking to Sky Sports, Fury’s US promoter said: “Next time around, if it’s Joshua and Tyson Fury, first of all, where should the fight be held?
    “There’s a big argument that by that time, the pandemic is behind us, we wait until the spring and we do it in Wembley, or one of the big arenas.
    “If we wanted to do it in winter, we can do it in Cardiff [Principality Stadium], because 70,000 seats, indoor arena, or it can go to Saudi Arabia.”
    Joshua was fuming at the collapse of the Fury fight and slammed the WBC champ as ‘never really wanting it’.

    But Arum is adamant that there were no ‘break downs’ in negotiations and that it was simply because the contract for it to happen in Saudi Arabia ‘couldn’t be finalised’.
    The 89-year-old added: “There were no break downs between the Fury side and the Joshua side. None.
    “The fight couldn’t be finalised for Saudi Arabia and then the arbitrator in the Wilder situation felt that he could, if he decided the case for Wilder, stop Fury from fighting anybody else other than Wilder.
    “But if the contract had been signed, he never would have done it. He might have given Wilder some damages, but he would not have stopped the fight.
    “But again, there was no signed contract for that fight. That’s what happened. It’s as plain and as simple as that.”

    Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn was furious at seeing the fight fall by the wayside, and says he ‘doesn’t really trust some people’ on Team Fury.
    Speaking to DAZN, the Matchroom boss said: “I think it was pretty intentional. AJ felt that Fury never wanted to fight.
    “I don’t particularly trust people on that side. Some people couldn’t let that fight happen. They wanted to keep some kind of control.
    “When they say, they might want (the fight) in December, who knows?”

    The bantamweight will fight for the second time in UFC in September.
    She said she is and says she is putting in over 65 hours a week to prepare for it but needs help to pay for her camp.
    Alpar’s public plea for help with fight expenses and claim that she would have to pull out of it without financial backing was met by Paul.
    He tweeted: “Imagine a rookie in the NBA had to start a GoFundMe to play.
    “I let Sarah Alpar know she has my support and contribution, It’s my honor and privilege to help fellow fighters in anyway I can.”
    Alpar’s plea said: “What this does, is it helps me to travel, take care of gym fees, to be able to afford food, anything.
    “You guys, I’m ready, I’m working, I’m going to school, I’m training, I’m putting in at least over 65 hours a week in these things, and I want to make this happen.
    “I want to go so far in the UFC and I can’t do it without you and my ‘Too Sweet Tribe.’

    “If you want to donate even $5, $10, anything is so helpful in order for me to be able to focus on training and to be able to win my next fight.
    “I want to thank everybody again for the donations that have already been put in.
    “I would like to make a goal of $1000 by July 1. Let’s make this happen, you guys. I need your help, I need your help.”
    Alpar battles Erin Blanchfield in her next outing, which is on the undercard of Anthony Smith’s fight with Ryan Spann on September 18.
    Paul, who was named in the top three richest fighters for the past year, has previously blasted Dana White over UFC fighters’ pay as he took aim at the promoter online.
    He posted: “Dana, you claimed you would bet $1 million on me losing.
    “Set up Askren to train with Freddie Roach. Gave him full access to the UFCPI and he still got his ass handed to him.
    “In my third fight, I made more money in total pay than any fighter in UFC history. Maybe it’s time to pay your fighters their fair share?
    “No wonder they all want to get into boxing. Dana, you say you make the fights the fans want to see, so hurry up and make [Jon] Jones vs [Francis] Ngannou.

    “Pay them their fair share. $10 million purse for each guy plus pay-per-view. Why are UFC fighters so underpaid versus boxers?
    “Why did I make more in my third fight than all but two (Khabib and Conor) UFC fighters have in history. I know why.”
    Meanwhile Paul has vowed to ‘eat up’ Tyron Woodley in two rounds as he claimed the UFC legend is ‘coming in a wounded soldier’.
    The YouTube sensation faces Woodley in his fourth professional fight on August 28.
    Paul, 24, is currently 3-0 as a pro, all by knockout, but has so far only beaten online rival ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 36, and retired UFC grappler Ben Askren, 36.
    Woodley, 39, is a former UFC champion and made four defences of his belt from 2016-2018.
    But after losing the title to Kamaru Usman, 34, in 2019, he has been beaten in his last four and departed the UFC.
