      And they went eye to eye at the press conference to announce the stunning pay-per-view card.
      But Joshua, 34, refused to call out his American rival on the top table.
      And Wilder, 38, said on The Last Stand podcast: “Every time my name comes up he goes the other way.
      “And it’s always been like this for almost a decade now. It’s been like that because of the fear that Joshua has towards me.

      “It’s because of what I’m capable of doing in that ring. We’ve seen it, women lie, men lie but numbers don’t lie.
      “The proof is in the pudding and I’ve displayed this over and over and over again.
      “It’s a thing that I understand but I don’t understand, you see something that can potentially happen and this man shows it over and over again.
      “I understand that part but this is the hurt business, this is what we signed up for bro, to be warriors.”

      Joshua returns against Swedish southpaw Otto Wallin, 32, who famously left Tyson Fury, 35, needing 47 stitches in his 2019 loss.
      Meanwhile, Wilder faces ex-WBO champion Joseph Parker, 31, who is a training partner of Fury’s.
      The Bronze Bomber and AJ are lined up for a blockbuster in 2024 should they leave Riyadh victorious.
      But when probed, Wilder said: “My main focus right now is doing what I need to do on December 23rd.
      “I’ve got to get past Joseph Parker first and then we will talk about the future plans after that.”

      Cheshire East Council claim that the trio owe the sum for property adjoining their £1million mansion in Styal.
      Magistrates are set to issue a legal order demanding that the trio pay up.
      Failure to do so could lead to “enforcement action” – which would involve a bailiff being sent to reclaim assets.

      Magistrates are today set to issue a legal order demanding they pay up.
      If the three still fail to cough up, they could face “enforcement action” — meaning an unlucky bailiff could have the unenviable task of reclaiming assets from the boxing family.
      Married dad-of-seven Tyson dubbed The Gypsy King, is 6ft 9in.
      John is a 6ft 3in ex-pro boxer and bare-knuckle fighter, who once went to jail for gouging a man’s eye out.

      Shane is a former superheavyweight amateur boxer.
      Tyson also has other boxing brothers, including Love Island star Tommy, 24.
      The council tax demand relates to land used for caravans and motorhomes adjoining the family’s £1million mansion in Styal, Cheshire.
      Court documents claim the Furys — jointly worth more than £134million — have failed to cough up £82,166.85 to Cheshire East Council.

      Land Registry papers show Tyson, Shane and John as the owners of the home and the land.
      John lives at the gated property, while Tyson is in Morecambe, Lancs.
      Barrister Sarah Robson, a fixed costs specialist at Alpha Court Chambers, said: “Often, the first time people realise a liability order has been granted is when bailiffs are sent round.
      “Cases are often sent to magistrates in batches of hundreds and sometimes thousands, and they are rubber stamped without real scrutiny.”
      It is not thought that the Furys will attend court today. Tyson’s representative declined to comment.

      Fans fear ‘not one person comes off well out of this’ as Tommy Fury holds talks with boxing legend, 54, over next fight

      by

      BOXING fans fear Tommy Fury’s next fight could be a lose-lose all round after entering talks with a 54-year-old legend. The ex-Love Islander beat YouTube stars Jake Paul, 26, and KSI, 30, in 2023 to become king of the crossover scene.

      And two weeks after his controversial win over KSI, the 24-year-old took a trip to Saudi Arabia in support of his brother Tyson.
      Days before Tyson, 35, also contentiously beat ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou, 37, Tommy struck a deal to face American great Roy Jones Jr.
      And now, Jones has confirmed that negotiations between the two are underway as he looks to secure a big payday in Saudi.
      He told Casino Alpha: “Saudi Arabia at the moment will probably pay what I’m looking for to make an exhibition happen.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      “Dealing with the Saudis I’ll say that I’m 75 per cent sure this exhibition happens against Tommy Fury.”
      Jones – who is 55 in January – is considered one of the best of all time, reigning over FOUR divisions including heavyweight.
      But he boxed well into his 50s and in 2020 welcomed back Mike Tyson for an exhibition.
      Jones again made a return this April against MMA veteran Anthony Pettis, losing on points – leaving fans fearing the worst amid talks with Tommy.

      Another added: “Someone should go to prison if that fight is made.”
      One claimed: “Roy my favorite fighter of All Time.. Please stop fighting.”
      Jones has also opened the door to fighting Tommy on away soil should the price be right.
      He said: “If the money is not right in Saudi Arabia then maybe me and Tommy could do an exhibition in the UK, that would be the first time that I ever had the chance to perform in the UK.
      “Would I really say no to that? I believe people in the UK would support that fight.
      “I’ve got a lot of fans in the UK and I think they’ll have enough fan exposure to get some interest in staging that.”

      “In the break he said what the is going on here, we are trying to help she is a women.
