      The British superstars will clash for all four heavyweight belts in the Middle East in a fight the world has been craving.
      Hearn also stated both men were happy to trust the Saudis because they already “delivered on every one of their promises” for Joshua’s fight against Andy Ruiz in 2019.

      Watch topless Deontay Wilder work out with huge beam of wood as he targets ‘revenge’ on Tyson Fury

      by

      DEONTAY WILDER is going back to basics as he prepares for revenge on Tyson Fury by throwing massive lumps of wood around by a lake. The American has turned the heavyweight division on its head this week after appearing to derail the planned battle between old foe Fury and Anthony Joshua.

      The two Brits looked set to finally face off in Saudi Arabia on August 14.
      However, the Court of Arbitration has ordered Fury to fulfill his contractual obligations and fight Wilder for a third and final time.
      Wilder is able to step aside to allow the Battle of Britain to go ahead but is likely to demand a pay-off in the region of a staggering £14million.
      Either way, he doesn’t appear eager to allow the Saudi showdown to get the green light without his say – and has even claimed he wants ‘Fury’s blood’, not money.
      Wilder showed he is keeping in terrific shape in a workout video as he went old school by lifting what looked like an old railway sleeper.
      Alongside the video he wrote the caption: “Revenge is the sweetest JOY.”
      Wilder hasn’t fought since his WBC title defeat to Fury in February 2020.
      An immediate rematch was written into the contract but that was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. Fury’s team then argued the stipulation expired in October.

      Fury hit out at Wilder after the news of the trilogy demand broke and labelled the Bronze Bomber a ‘joke.’
      He wrote online: “What a joke @bronzebomber has become asked for 20 million to move over #joker looks like I have to crack his skull again!”
      Even AJ couldn’t resist having his say and joked he wants to set up a GoFundMe for Wilder.
      He posted on social media: “I’m thinking about starting a go fund me page to raise money for wilders step aside payment £20,000,000.
      “So I can smoke that fat guy with skinny legs from Manchester.
      “These heavyweights need a podcast or something cas they do more talking than fighting.”
      It now looks as though the trilogy could go ahead this summer, with AJ forced to fight WBO mandatory Oleksandr Usyk in the meantime.

      ANTHONY JOSHUA has joined heavyweight rival Dillian Whyte in calling Tyson Fury ‘Luke’ after it was claimed he changed his name.The WBO, WBA and IBF champion was involved in a Twitter spat with the Gypsy King on Wednesday as they clashed over their undisputed fight being in jeopardy.

      Fury’s undisputed bout with AJ is in doubt due to Deontay Wilder being contracted to fight the Gypsy King for a third timeCredit: Instagram @gypsyking101
      The British pair were set to meet on August 14 in the Middle East, but their bout is in serious danger of not happening due to Deontay Wilder being contractually tied to a trilogy bout with Fury.
      A US judge has decided, following an arbitration, that the Bronze Bomber is legally due a third fight that must happen by September 15.
      It has been claimed that the American could be handed step-aside money in order for Fury’s dust-up with AJ to take place.

      Joshua took to social media to express his anger at the situation as he labelled Fury as a ‘fraud’, leading the unbeaten Mancunian to challenge him to a bare-knuckle fight.
      To which the 2012 Olympic gold medallist said: “If there was an arbitration going on, why announce to the world we are fighting!
      “The fight was signed! UNDISPUTED. Bare knuckle? You’re a good kid, don’t play with me Luke! I’ll slap your bald head & you’ll do nothing! Waste man.”
      Joshua has followed former foe Whyte in calling Fury ‘Luke’, with the Body Snatcher declaring that the WBC king changed his name to Tyson to sound ‘harder’.
      Speaking to SunSport in December, the former British champ remarked: “My real name is Dillian. I know his real name is Luke.

      “He changed it to Tyson to make himself sound harder.
      “People can have a little look around on the internet and see for themselves.
      “In boxing, the name Tyson is a lot more sellable than Luke.
      “A lot of what Tyson does and says is a game, you can never take anything he says seriously or at face value.
      “He might say he wants to fight me sometimes but how can you trust a man who doesn’t even use his own name?”

      Mayweather is currently in training for his exhibition fight with YouTuber Logan Paul
      However, the fight was temporarily scuppered after Notorious, 32, was beaten by American Dustin Poirier in a shock KO defeat in January.
      McGregor, who was defeated by Money in 2017, has said he is ready for the rematch and even revealed how he would train for the fight, in an impromptu Twitter Q&A on Sunday.
      However, Mayweather is said to be growing impatient with McGregor and wants a deal to be hashed out soon.

      “He’s been telling everyone in his camp he’s going to beat the hell out of him and saying he’s got a dead record.

      “Right now Floyd is super-focused on his boxing…
      “He even asked his girlfriend to move out temporarily so he could train without distraction.”

      In The Sun’s exclusive photos Tyson, 32, smiled and chatted to female fans and he later admitted he was in his wife’s “bad books” – after she ditched her wedding ring in photos on Instagram.
      Taking to Instagram earlier this morning the boxer shared a photo with Paris after she touched down in the US, and said: “wow look what i bumped in to in miami the hottest blond about, @parisfury1 my queen 👸 has arrived….. usa 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸”

      He said: “That fight [Joshua vs Fury] is done and you’ll get an announcement very soon.”

      It has also been reported that the fight could generate as much as £500million, with Joshua and Fury agreeing a 50/50 split.
      However, the fight has been hit with a curve ball after a judge ruled Fury must fight Deontay Wilder before September 15.
      It might be possible Wilder can be paid to step aside.
      Fury is unbeaten in 31 professional fights, with his only blemish coming in a controversial draw against Deontay Wilder in 2018, a clash many felt he won.
      Meanwhile, Joshua has a record of 24-1, with his only defeat coming in shock fashion at the hands of Ruiz in 2019. More

      Anderson Silva rages at ‘terrible’ UFC for stopping Georges St-Pierre from boxing and says ‘a caged lion will die’

      LEGENDARY fighter Anderson Silva has blasted the UFC’s decision to prevent Georges St-Pierre from boxing. St-Pierre, a two-division UFC champ, was offered a lucrative deal to take on Oscar De La Hoya in his comeback bout.

      Ryan Kavanaugh, chief of Triller Fight Club promotions, revealed UFC president Dana White blocked St-Pierre’s move into boxing.
      White claimed that the 40-year-old is still under contract with the UFC despite last stepping inside the Octagon in 2017.
      On the other hand, Brazilian hero Silva makes his boxing debut to fight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr on June 19.
      Silva, 46, is regarded as one of the best UFC fighters of all-time and holds the record for the longest title reign in history at 2,457 days.
      Speaking to MMA Junkie at a Los Angeles media day, Silva said: “I think it doesn’t make sense, especially because Georges did a lot for the sport, especially for UFC.
      “Why you hold the guy? This makes no sense.
      “Georges is a fighter. You can’t hold a fighter.
      “It’s the same if you take the lion in the jungle and put him inside a cage. The lion is going to die. You can’t do that. Nobody can do that.
      “This makes no sense. This is terrible, terrible – completely terrible.”

      Silva looked in terrific shape ahead as he trained ahead of his boxing debut and added of his upcoming bout: “When I look back at my journey, I see that nothing has been in vain!

      Former world champ Carlos Molina looking to roll back the years with ‘dominant’ performance against Sam Eggington

      by

      BOXING veteran, former world champion and self-professed ‘king of the ring’ Carlos Molina laughs as remembers his early days in the professional game. “I actually became a world champion without ever eating vegetables, that’s crazy,” Molina laughs in an exclusive interview with SunSport.

      “When I was younger I could stay up late, eat what I want, recuperate and not feel anything at all.
      “I feel great even at 37 years old. I put that down to always being busy and active. I don’t take time off, I’m always in the gym and this is something I love, I don’t just do it for a job.
      “I’m training smarter, much smarter than I was when I was younger.”
      And duty calls on Saturday night at the Coventry Skydome, where Molina takes on Sam Eggington in a middleweight clash for the WBC Silver title.
      Molina couldn’t pass up the opportunity to fight for another career trinket, having won the IBF super-welterweight world title against Ishe Smith back in 2013 on the Floyd Mayweather-Canelo Alvarez undercard.
      The former world champ anticipates a night of simple boxing, but the cliche that Mexican fighters like to brawl could ring true come Saturday night, particularly against a fighter like Eggington.

      Molina naturally watched Mexico’s greatest fighters growing up in and around the sport, so wants to honour their legacies too.
      “I’ve seen some of Sam’s fights,” he adds. “The opportunity popped up, it’s for the WBC Silver middleweight champion and it’s my goal to become world champion again.
      “I’m number eight now and with a win that should place me in the top five.
      “My style is different, it’s smart, I don’t like getting hit but at the same time I’ll go to that Mexican style also if I need to.
      “When I started fighting, I really got into it around the first Morales-Barrera fight. I was an amateur fighter at the time and it got me so excited.
      “And since I was a little kid we used to watch Julio Cesar Chavez fight, we’d get together as a family, have food, hang out and make a big deal about his fights.

      “But my favourite fighter of all time is Salvador Sanchez, he’s a technician. He’s my favourite by far.”
      Molina’s ‘King’ Moniker came from longtime trainer Victor Mateo, who anointed him with the nickname as a young fighter, walking around the Wisconsin gym he thought of like he owned it.
      “My first ever trainer in Wisconsin when I started boxing called me King,” he says. “I used to walk around like it the gym like it was mine, I was the king of the ring. It just stuck with me, every time I’m in the ring Im the king and I feel most comfortable with.
      “Everything my trainers said when I first started about potentially fighting for a world title came true. It all starts with the mentality, wanting it, getting it and finally achieving it.

      “The Ishe Smith fight was my greatest moment. As soon as I started boxing I wanted to go all the way and win a world title.”
      Molina isn’t sure about an exact outcome in his fight with Eggington, whose fights can be as unpredictable as it gets in the ring, but he’s completely clear on one thing.
      “I’m absolutely going to have one of my best performances,” Molina says.
      “I’m going to dominate from the beginning to the end of the fight, total domination. And if a knockout comes, I’m going to go for it, for sure. I don’t want to leave it up to the judges. But the main goal is to dominate.”
      Sam Eggington vs Carlos Molina is live and FREE on Channel 5 from 10pm on Saturday May 22. More
