    Bellsy – real name Donna Preusker – had to have her breast implants checked out ahead of the press conference this week.
    The tests meant that she had to miss out on some training time.
    During the press conference, Donna said: “I had to get these mother f***ing titties tested to make sure I could actually fight, you mother f***ing b****.”
    Donna and AJ will bout for the Misfits middleweight championship at 125 pounds.

    AJ herself resisted the inspection as it was set to take six hours, however, Donna told her to “sit back down”.
    The remainder of the press conference remained respectful ahead of the fight at the Vertu Motors Arena.
    There was some more drama during the press conference as OnlyFans star Elle Brooke gatecrashed it.
    Elle seemed to take a particular interest in this fight due to her history with Bunker, having beaten her in July 2022.

    Anthony Joshua told to fight underdog former champ who embarrassed him as Deontay Wilder fight hangs in balance

    ANTHONY JOSHUA has been urged to pursue a trilogy fight with a former foe amid the uncertainty over his showdown with Deontay Wilder.Negotiations over the pair’s long-overdue grudge match resumed after AJ sparked out short-notice replacement Robert Helenius last month.

    The financial side of the deal has been agreed but a venue is frantically being sought for after Saudi boxing chiefs withdrew their interest.
    Joshua, 33, will pursue an end-of-year return if his proposed January joust with Wilder – which has been over five years in the making – fails to come to fruition.
    And fellow Brit Tony Bellew reckons he should face two-time opponent Andy Ruiz Jr in a tasty rubber match.
    When asked who AJ should fight next, the former WBC cruiserweight champion told Carl Froch: “Andy Ruiz. I like that fight.”
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    Ruiz Jr shocked the world in June 2019 by spectacularly ending Joshua’s first reign as unified heavyweight champion on just five weeks’ notice.
    The Californian knocked AJ down a staggering four times on his way to a seventh-round TKO victory, which saw him become Mexico’s first heavyweight king.
    His reign as champion, however, didn’t last long as a lean and mean Joshua comfortably outboxed him in their rematch six months later.
    Joshua repeatedly rattled Ruiz’s dome with punishing right hands from range in their Saudi showdown, so much so that Bellew believes he’ll stop the American third time around.

    “I think he pulverises Ruiz this time,” The Bomber said.
    “But I would like to have seen the Dillian Whyte fight, that would have been a very good fight.”
    Bellew hopes a win over Ruiz Jr will put AJ on course for a Battle of Britain with current WBC heavyweight king Tyson Fury
    He said: “But [Tyson] Fury, obviously, that’s the one I really want to see.
    “It’s tough, the heavyweight division isn’t as deep as it should be – there are fringe contenders or you’re not very good.”

    I hope Tyson Fury fights Oleksandr Usyk as I’m perfect sparring partner for the Gypsy King

    MOSES ITAUMA wants Tyson Fury to secure the Oleksandr Usyk undisputed decider so he can finally tangle with the giant WBC Gypsy King.The 18-year-old Kent ace is a 6ft 3in heavyweight southpaw just like Ukraine’s WBA, IBF and WBO world champion.

    And Anthony Joshua missed a trick by not having the super-skilled teen as his main sparring partner for both his losses to the 36-year-old leftie.
    But Itauma – who used to travel to Joe Joyce’s gym after school and swap his uniform and classes for gloves and hard rounds – hopes his Frank Warren stablemate will draft him straight in for practice rounds.
    Once Fury comes through his October 28 showbiz-circus bout with Francis Ngannou, the four-belt decider with Usyk should be signed and sealed for Saudi Arabia.
    And fearless Itauma – who has done hundreds of practice rounds with monster punchers like Daniel Dubois and Lawrence Okolie – hopes he gets the invite up to Morecambe after he deals with his fifth pro opponent at Wembley arena on Saturday.

    “I know everyone wants to see the Fury and Usyk fight for all of the belts but I only really want it so I hopefully get the chance to spar Tyson,” the eager student explained.
    “I’m no help with the Ngannou fight but I do think I am ideal for Usyk so hopefully I get to go up there soon and learn from him.
    “Sparring stories always go around, I can’t complain because a lot of my early praise has come from sparring partners like Okolie, Joyce and Dubois bigging me up.
    “Sparring is not fighting but it still shows skills and is the best way to learn so I want to mix with everyone and Fury is really the only big one I haven’t sparred.”

    With so much hype and expectation around Itauma, some fickle casual fight fans have been critical of his last two wins going the distance.
    It’s an identical story to super-lightweight ace Adam Azim who at just 21 is about to fight for the European title in just his 10th pro fight.
    Both prodigious talents are learning on the job and are taking on extremely tough men to get them ready for world title runs eventually.
    “The first opponent who took the distance was a Ukrainian and the guy who Adam Azim just outpointed was Ukrainian too,” Itauma , who will take on Belgium’s Amine “The Beast” Boucetta on Saturday barring any mishaps, rightly pointed out.
    “I take my hat off to anyone who is fighting a Ukrainian right now because, for what they are going through, they have so much to fight for.
    “The Ukrainian boxers right now are fighting for their lives and their homes.
    “People will always talk when you don’t win in spectacular fashion, people think I don’t get it but I do.
    “None of us will ever be perfect, us fighters all speak to each other about it and we all get it.
    “You learn so much more by going the distance, blasting people out in one round looks good but it doesn’t”. More

    Tyson Fury LEAKS Francis Ngannou’s purse for Saudi showdown just weeks before ex-UFC champ makes boxing debut

    TYSON FURY has seemingly leaked Francis Ngannou’s payday for their controversial crossover clash.The Gypsy King is just over four weeks away from locking horns with the former UFC heavyweight champion in a lucrative ten-round Saudi showdown.

    Ngannou bagged the biggest fight of his career a mere six months after seemingly walking away from a guaranteed £6.5million ($8m) to face MMA icon Jon Jones.
    Saudi chiefs have shelled out the big bucks to get Fury and Ngannou to share the ring.
    And Fury claims the Cameroonian clubber will bag a minimum of £8.1million ($10m) as soon as he steps in the ring for their much-maligned desert dust-up.
    The WBC heavyweight champion said: “Everyone said he was an idiot for walking away from the UFC and now all of a sudden he’s a genius, isn’t he?”

    “Guy’s about to make $10 million (£8.1m). Come on! Egg in their face! Francis is going to make that bag. Rich!”
    Ngannou, 37, will make considerably more than the figure being publicly touted by Fury.
    His guaranteed purse will be topped up by his respective cut of the fight’s pay-per-view sales – as well as sponsorship money.
    The hard-hitting Ngannou goes into his professional boxing debut as a huge underdog.

    But he’s adamant he’ll shock the world and hand the undefeated Fury his first-ever loss.
    He told The LadBible earlier this year: “He’s a great boxer.
    “One of the best to ever do it. Personally, I think he’s a show guy.
    “He’s a good show guy. He likes to have fun. He’s cool. And what I love about him, he’s a free man. He speaks free. He lives free.
    “He’s not caged. And I like that attitude.
    “Ten years ago, I wasn’t in the picture. Not even in the corner, like a dot. So I have my own chance.” More

    But before the DAZN pay-per-view showdown, KSI was on promotional duty ahead of the next Misfists Boxing event.
    Talk soon turned to the biggest fight of his life and he warned Fury to expect
    KSI said: “I’ve said several stuff to him and he knows that October 14th he’s the b*****d child.
    “He’s the child that no one really cared about in the Fury family and when I come through and knock him out repeatedly, it’s over man.

    “Like when I literally ruin your life bro, it’s done. And I’ll be the man to do it, and I can’t wait. And I’ll do it with a smile.”
    KSI, 30, was also quick to take aim at Fury’s father and coach John as he added: “Hopefully I’ll get to slap your dad as well after I beat you.
    “Or maybe I’ll slap his t**s. Both t**s. We’ll see anyway.”
    It comes after KSI, Fury and John all bizarrely took their tops off to flex their muscles on a live stream with Adin Ross.

    Fury, 24, said: “This man is going to get destroyed badly, I’m telling you now. He’s going to get destroyed.”
    Meanwhile KSI – without a top on – yelled: “I want you to see all the abs. Yeah, I see you dieting. You dieting right now, man.
    “Aye, yo how’s the steak, bro? How’s the tiny little ass steak that you’re eating. Bro, I’m f***ing huge.

    Rising boxing superman asks Conor McGregor to sponsor Dublin homecoming

    PIERCE O’LEARY is appealing to fellow Dubliner Conor McGregor to help him secure a dream homecoming bout.The Notorious MMA superstar sponsored Irish legend Katie Taylor’s Three Arena fight against Chantelle Cameron last May and his new stout brand has backed the Saturday night Joe Joyce vs Zhilei Zhang rematch at Wembley Arena.

    Super-lightweight 23-year-old O’Leary is on the London undercard this weekend but a fight at the iconic arena, just a few steps from his family home, is what he keeps dreaming of and he hopes McGregor can assist with.
    “Let’s do Paddy’s Day, March 17, that weekend, let’s give everyone a bit of excitement for that weekend.” he grinned.
    “The Three Arena is 200 yards from my house, I used to do laps around it as a kid to get fit and cut weight.
    “Katie Taylor has got boxing back in there now, her fans packed it out from 5:30pm and that gives me hope I can get there soon.

    “I am reaching out to Conor and the Forged Stout company to sponsor a show there for us.
    “Conor is an honourable man and when I have a bad day I watch loads of old Conor McGregor fights and footage, it helps me when I am alone in training camps over here in London away from my family.
    “A lot of my girlfriend’s family, cousins and uncles, are close friends with Conor so it would be great to work together on something back in Dublin.”
    O’Leary was a decorated amateur and could very comfortably still be living at home with his partner and three-year-old daughter while he adds to his undefeated early record.

    But he has dragged himself away to set up a tough solitary existence in a lonely flat close to trainer Al Smith’s excellent i-box gym in Bromley.
    Zoom calls home can be torturous for the dedicated daddy but he believes he is toughening himself up now for the challenges to come.
    “I think I am building the hardship,” he said.
    “I want to have a different mentality to everybody else, when the going gets tough I still want to be hanging in there.
    “Everytime I leave my family it feels like I am being stabbed with a sword and as it’s pulled out I am deflated.
    “Every moment is sink-or-swim for me, Al has to throw me out of the gym every day and tell me to stop training.
    “But this is my work ethic, I am not going to leave my family – who depend on me – to come over here and mess about.
    “I am regimented, I am away from all distractions, I am lucky to have great grandparents on both sides back home helping with my daughter.”

    O’Leary’s dashing good looks, designer spectacles and superpower have his manager Francis Warren plotting a Superman-style ring walk soon, complete with a flowing cape.
    But the down-to-earth fighter feels like unnecessary attention is his kryptonite and hopes to laugh off the gimmick.
    “I am telling you we are not doing it,” he laughed.

    “It keeps getting mentioned but it’s not my character. I don’t mind keeping my glasses on for the weigh-in scales but that’s all I need.
    “If it really works for the media, then maybe but I don’t like messing around, these fights are where I earn my dough, how I feed my family, so there is no messing around for me.” More

    “If you ask me, that’s more important than the physical aspect. Someone that wants to know the language, the real language of boxing, just not from a casual stand point.
    “She materialised that over into the physical and we go hard four or five days out the week.”
    Despite the praise, Abdo admitted she cannot always duck out of constructive criticism from Scott.
    She said: “He’ll tell me I have slow feet!”
