      Canelo Alvarez had a brutal response for McGregor after being trolled
      McGregor, 35, fought an exhibition against Mayweather, 46, in 2017.
      The highly-anticipated bout saw the UFC superstar make the switch to boxing.
      And despite an impressive early start, McGregor was eventually outclassed before losing to a 10th round KO.
      He was just the latest in a long line of top fighters taken down by Mayweather, who boasts an incredible 50-0 record.

      One of those who struggled to get the best of the American was Canelo, now regarded as the best pound-for-pound fighter on the planet.
      His 2013 light middleweight championship bout with Mayweather ended in defeat following a majority decision.
      It was Canelo’s first ever loss and just his second in 64 career fights to date.
      Many agree Mayweather’s performance went down in history, with the ace dominating throughout.

      And while responding to a clip of the bout on social media, Irishman McGregor hailed Mayweather’s performance against Canelo as one of the best ever.
      Going on to call out Mayweather for a rematch while trolling Canelo in the process, McGregor said: “One of the greatest performances in Professional Boxing this was.
      “I landed more shots on Floyd than Canelo. I’d love another go.”
      However, Canelo was none too pleased with McGregor’s words.
      And he issued a brutal response, saying: “I just need one hand with you and I don’t need to throw so many punches.”
      This caused McGregor to bluntly fire back: “Saul you uncooked chicken, I’ll stomp the ligaments out of your knee joint.
      “I don’t even need hands to end you, I’ll kick you raw pink, leave you looking like you were left out in the sun too long haha freckle a**e.
      “I will see you and we will see. Canelo is a cornflake, no sugar.”
      Fans were certainly left excited by the prospect of a crossover fight.
      One said: “I would pay to see Canelo vs McGregor with the one-arm handicap in play.”
      Another declared: “Let’s do this!”

      Danis went up against Paul in the weekend’s influencer boxing event.
      Paul won the fight with a unanimous decision after Danis threw just NINE punches throughout the six-round clash.
      But, just as the final bell was about to go, Danis attempted an MMA-style takedown on Paul.
      The move did not come off, with Paul then throwing a punch and Danis reciprocating with a kick back towards him before security detail from both camps rushed into the ring to spark a mass brawl.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      Speaking on Piers Morgan Uncensored on Talk TV, Danis said: “I wasn’t actually trying to but he was smart and he Vaselined his head up. So I guess he knew I was going for his neck but at that moment I actually wasn’t.
      “I was grabbing his head and he just kind of shrugged me and with the Vaseline and then he threw that punch and I up-kicked him.”
      Danis blasted Paul’s tactics in the fight, claiming the PRIME founder was running away whenever he tried to get in close.
      He said: “The fight, it didn’t feel like a fight, it felt like he was running away, every time I tried to engage with him and get in there and trade, he tried to get away… he was running, he was on the back foot the whole time. I wanted to fight.”

      The 30-year-old then hinted at the possibility of a rematch in the Octagon, declaring Paul had even agreed to the fight.
      Danis added: “I was just messing around a little bit. Boxing is not a real fight, it’s a half a fight.
      “I want to fight him in a real fight, [he] shook my hand and said he was going to fight me in MMA… he shook my hand, if he’s a real man, he should…
      “Fight Paul in MMA? I am ready to do it, I can do it tonight. I didn’t take any damage, so I want to take a fight in the next thirty days. I’m ready to go!”
      The fight between the pair came after months of trash-talking, a lot of which involved Paul’s partner Nina Agdal.
      Danis insisted his talking was done with the aim of promoting the fight, but was critical of Paul’s own ability to promote it and to respond to what he said in the build-up.
      He said: “I went out there, I didn’t get wobbled and I didn’t do it for the fame, but I thought Logan would be a better promoter. He was terrible.
      “He beat me in a boxing fight. If he beat me in an MMA fight. he has boxed for five, seven years, he could have rattled me. He didn’t do anything to me, a couple of smacks, that’s it.”

      MMA star Akonne Wanliss ‘can’t wait’ to see Eddie Hearn after he slammed girlfriend Daniella Hemsley over boob flash

      by

      MMA star Akonne Wanliss “can’t wait” to see Eddie Hearn after the promoter slammed his girlfriend Daniella Hemsley. Hemsley hit the headlines in July after she celebrated a boxing win by flashing her boobs live on TV.

      The stunt was slammed by Hearn who spoke of his “hate” towards it.
      But Hemsley has since revealed she was meant to have tape that covered her nipples but they got stuck to her bra.
      And she also released messages which appeared to show organisers – under the KingPyn banner – encouraging her to pull of the move.
      So Wanliss – a 7-2 MMA fighter signed to Oktagon – has been relieved to see Hemsley give her side of the story.

      He told SunSport: “She got thrown under the bus, 100 per cent. KingPyn didn’t help that whole situation at all. 
      “Whether they had to cover their own back or they had to abide by someone else, whatever the reason was Daniella got thrown under the bus. 
      “But I’m so happy that the truth has come out, the truth will always set you free.
      “I’m happy that it is and that the public really know what happened that night.”

      Wanliss pointed out Hearn’s criticism as a turning point in the abuse his partner received.
      He said: “I was always her big support network, whenever she was getting a lot of hate on social media. 
      “It was bad, the comments even Eddie Hearn as well. That was a big one when Eddie Hearn said something because he’s very respected in the boxing world. 
      “So to have him kind of shut down is great, I love that. I can’t wait to see him in real life.” 
      Shortly after Hemsley went viral, Wanliss returned to the cage with a win and now fights on November 4 in Manchester.
      He said: “I haven’t been home and fought in a long time so being able to fight in Manchester is great. 
      “Being able to get back out under the OKTAGON banner again is great.” 
      Wanliss has also been coaching on OKTAGON challenge series where contenders from England and Ireland fight it out for bragging rights.
      He said: “It’s been an absolute honour to train these guys and pass on the knowledge that I’ve gathered in such a short space of time. 
      “And for them to look at me as a sensei, as a master jedi or as somebody they can learn from is great.

      Dillon Danis offered X-rated career change after ‘humiliating’ Logan Paul loss on KSI vs Tommy Fury undercard

      by

      DILLON DANIS has been offered an X-rated career change after being “humiliated” by Logan Paul. The Jiu Jitsu champion-turned-MMA star looked to settle his bitter feud with Paul over six boxing rounds.

      But the grudge match ended in chaos after Danis was disqualified in the final stages for attempting a takedown.
      Paul was on the way to a shut out on the scorecards before Danis’ antics caused a mass brawl in the ring.
      The American has taken the chance to lay into his rival online but now others are joining in too.
      Mike Ford, the vice president of adult site My.Club, sent Danis an explicit six-figure working proposal.

      He said: “I’d like to formally extend you an offer to serve as the ‘Head BJ(J) Trainer’ for My.Club, a leading platform for adult content creators.
      “In your role, you will give BJJ tutorials to post to your profile via photo and video and provide fans with video call sessions teaching them Brazilian Jiu Jitsu basics.”
      Danis, 30, lost every round before his ridiculous takedown attempt saw him thrown out of the fight.
      But he is now set to launch an appeal by claiming: “There were multiple offences. I’ll be submitting my appeal to the commission today.”

      Meanwhile Paul, 26, posted: “I think Dillion perfectly embodies the problem with society.
      “All s*** talk behind a screen. No action. Just another peasant running his mouth contributing nothing to this world but negativity.
      “So happy I got to expose this clown.”

      Tommy Fury fresh-faced in first TV appearance after ‘six rounds of hugging and star jumps’ and reveals KSI rematch plan

      by

      TOMMY FURY showed off a fresh-faced look in his first TV appearance just days after his win over KSI. Fury walked away with a controversial points win over the YouTube, music and crossover boxing star last Saturday in Manchester.
      Tommy Fury showed off a fresh-faced look in his first TV appearance since beating KSI
      But KSI raged at the “robbery” decision and revealed plans to APPEAL his first ever loss.
      Fury has hit back to mock KSI’s boxing style and the fact the fight was promoted on his Misfits Boxing banner.
      He said on Good Morning Britain: “At the end of the day he can come out and say what he wants but hugging and doing star jumps in the ring does not win a fight.
      “And he can go on about how he was robbed but at the end of the day it was his show, his officials, his judges so he’s saying your own people that you employ have robbed you?”
      READ MORE ON KSI
      Fury, 24, was left unmarked after the scrappy six rounds with KSI, 30.
      He was initially awarded a majority-decision win after two judges scored it 57-56 his way while another totted up his total to 57-57 even.
      But upon the release of the official scorecards, it was revealed official Rafael James had actually sided 56-57.
      The result has since been changed to a unanimous-decision win for Fury, who refused to confirm or rule out a rematch.

      He said: “I don’t know, we’re gonna see. But that was a horrible fight to be a part of.
      “He didn’t wanna fight, he didn’t want to stand there and give the fans a good fight.
      “He just wanted to make it awkward, look horrible and run around the ring for six rounds.
      “It’s very irritating for someone like me who wanted to get in there and have a proper fight.”

      The glam 33-year-old is a regular on the circuit, often showing off her enviable figure at a Misfits Boxing and Bare Knuckle Championship events.
      While she also runs her own stable of promo models with her own agency ‘Finesse Ring Girls.’
      Last month, Carla made her long-awaited Misfits Boxing debut – defeating Tasha Kiran of Ibiza Weekender fame on points in a bruising battle.
      It was the culmination of patience and hard work that allowed her to enter a world where cattiness scores your brownie points, foes and potentially huge pay day.

      Speaking to SunSport, Carla revealed why she wanted to get involved with Misfits.
      “I have always been an active person and I like the gym,” the fierce brunette said.
      “I used to do some pad punching. I always wanted to fight, but I knew I didn’t have the time to commit myself to it or the skill to try it professionally.
      “So when the YouTube stuff started picking up and people were getting really well paid for it, I thought I should dedicate some serious time to it.
      Most read in Boxing
      “Being a ring girl, I obviously fall into the category. It was my calling – I just had to do it.”
      Carla was approached to fight against Tash Weekender at the eleventh hour as a replacement.
      She had three weeks to get herself into shape, and didn’t hesitate when Misfits Boxing co-founder Mams Taylor gave her a call.
      Carla said: “Mams got in touch and asked if I want to take a fight, and I said ‘yeah, sure!’ I didn’t even know who I was up against. I was just so eager to get in the ring.”
      A tough training camp then began. She continued: “You think you know what it’s all about and then you start properly training and realise how hard it is.
      “I had three weeks to get ready before I had to fight. At that point I had stopped boxing completely.
      “I was running my agency, and I wasn’t ready. I didn’t even have a gym membership!”
      “I sparred at Shootfighters gym in London, but had to cram in so much. I absolutely loved it though.”
      Honest Carla admitted there was some trepidation when it came to her preparations.
      “The first time I ever had any fear for what I was about to do was when I drove to my first sparring session,” she confessed.

      “I didn’t know what sparring was and where I train is like a proper gym. For about 20 seconds I started to think, ‘I am driving somewhere to get my face punched in. Do I want to do this?”
      Carla came to the peace with the idea when she realised getting hit in a sparring session made her feel more savage.
      “I remember I got hit hard once and thought that wasn’t very nice, but it sort of egged me on a bit.
      “From that point, I knew I didn’t mind getting punched in the face.”
      As was proven by the latest Misfits Boxing card, with KSI and Tommy Fury going head-to-head, influencer fights are to be taken seriously and they are big business.
      For that reason, the events need to be a spectacle, which Carla believes the Misfits Boxing organisation understands and is proving to excel in.
      “For me it is about being able to put on a great production,” she said.
      “We’ve had leagues like this before, but not at the same level. Being able to provide the fighters with such a massive platform, great experience, treat them like actual professionals, and pay us well – it’s really amazing what Misfits Boxing is doing.
      “I know it gets a lot of stick from other people, and some people don’t like it but eight of 10 of the fighters you see at these events really take it seriously.
      “There are some that may be there for the pay cheque, but everyone I’ve seen just loves it.

      “Even when some of the girls get beaten, they’re back and they want to defend their reputation.
      “I think it’s there to be respected and people should give it some credit.”
      Carla is new to the Misfits Boxing world, and although there are naysayers who will complain that she is only in the position because she’s a ring girl, she hopes to silence those doubters.
      She has also had plenty of offers for fights already.
      She said: “I’m putting in the work like everyone else to get into that position. It’s really hard.
      “It’s funny because I know I am not that well known. But as soon as I won my last fight all these random girls started offering me out.
      “The best one was I had one girl wait outside my hotel room, screaming she wanted to fight me.
      “I didn’t think it would be that easy to get another opponent or this fun!”
      The bitchiness that exists in the women’s game at Misfits Boxing begins on social media, where rivals bash each other, and escalates into full blown rows at press conferences and more.
      “It’s sort of like TV. In the normal world, if someone barges me in a shop I’m not going to start on them!” Carla joked.
