      The ex-world champion, 37, was charged with “possession of a concealed weapon” following what was described as a routine stop.
      But on his return to social media the Bronze Bomber made no reference to the case – instead treating fans to some philosophical musings.
      Wilder was beaten twice by unbeaten Brit Tyson Fury in their iconic trilogy before knocking out Finn Robert Helenius in round one of his comeback fight last October.
      And he told his followers how to win at life with a series of deep tweets.

      Wilder shared this mantra with fans: “You’re an amazing human being and it’s deserving to be acknowledged.”
      But with his next step in the ring uncertain, he also posted: “Certain things come to an end as the years get older it’s called growth.”
      He didn’t explain if that was a reference to his boxing career.
      Arguably most Wilder’s most heartfelt message was his longest.

      “Some people will not like what you do because they can’t figure out their problems but, that’s ok bec many will LOVE & appreciate what you give to this world. My light will always shine.” More

      But he went home to all of his girls with a much healthier-looking face than his victorious foe, who had his right eye punched completely shut.
      Good jabs swapped in the opener but a right hand from Jett landed flush and was worryingly loud
      American Jett was a master at grappling and wrestling in the regular clinches and another right drove into the Brit when he crouched down to reset his stance
      After three minutes of slashing at each other, they shook hands on the bell and went to their corners to recover

      Reffell’s left eye started to look painful swollen and bleeding by the second
      But he soldiered on and did the better boxing but he was being manhandled by the visitor. 
      In round four both men nearly flew over the top rope and into the Indigo O2 crowd, like a WWE stunt, when Jett pushed and their pair entangled their arms.
      Both men looked exhausted and hurt by the final bell but it was Jett’s vision that was slashed in half by the end, thanks to Raffell’s precise shots.

      The judges called the close contest 48-46, 48-46, 48-45, which seemed especially harsh after Jett had been deducted a point for a late punch after the bell that ended the fourth.
      The decision put American 2-1 up in the BYB Police Gazette International Cup, with six fights to go. More

      Will Chope, the Malaysia-based beanpole from the opposite corner, tried to tie our man up in a clinch and whack him on the back of the head with an illegal rabbit punch.
      But 28-year-old Stokes, making his bare knuckle debut after 14 pro boxing bouts, caught him perfectly on the chin as the pair parted.
      Chope, who towered over the Englishman and wore exotic martial arts shorts and shoes, folded into the floor and never looked like returning before the count.
      And he was left with a cut slashed into his right cheek and seeping blood that was tended to once he staggered back to his unsteady feet.

      With his Brummie crowd roaring down the front row of the O2 Indigo, Stokes said: “I am buzzing, I came here to beat him and that’s what I did.
      “Thanks to everyone who came and bought a ticket, it means a lot.”
      Stokes lost two Midlands Area fights before taking off the gloves, the most recent against Stoke middleweight herp Natham Heaney.
      Team UK went one fight down after the opener of the Police Gazette International Cup went to the visiting Americans.

      Boxing drug cheat vows to ‘RETIRE’ Anthony Joshua as Eddie Hearn scrambles to find August opponent for AJ

      by

      DISGRACED drug cheat Jarrell Miller has offered to step up on short notice and save Anthony Joshua’s August ring return.Joshua, 33, is without a dance partner for his proposed August 12 return after negotiations over a rematch with Dillian Whyte went south.

      Promoter Eddie Hearn is scrambling to find a new opponent for the second fight of AJ’s career rebuild, which kicked off in April with a scrappy points win over Jermaine Franklin.
      And American motormouth Miller is eager to save the day, although he plans to end Joshua’s hopes of getting back into world title contention four years after their grudge match was cancelled.
      “Big Baby” told Stamina For Sale: “I’ll annihilate him! Retire him! Send him back packing – plain and simple.
      “I’m not playing no games with nobody, I’m playing no games.

      “There is bad blood there in a boxing sense so it would be great entertainment.
      “It’s nothing personal, I just don’t care for him, but when I see you on my radar, I don’t like you.
      “I don’t like anything about you, I want to rip your guts outs and nothing going to change that.
      “I’m not going anywhere for a while, I’m back, I’m here to stay and I’m coming with vengeance.

      “And if anybody wants the smoke they know I’m here. I’m back baby.”
      Miller was due to welcome Joshua to America in a Madison Square Garden melee in 2019 but their fight was scrapped after he tested positive for a cocktail of performance-enhancing drugs.
      The New Yorker popped for THREE banned substances, paving the way for Andy Ruiz Jr to pull off one of the biggest upsets in boxing history at MSG.
      Matchroom supremo Hearn vowed to never work with Miller in wake of his anti-doping violations – another of which he racked up ahead of his proposed 2020 clash with Jerry Forest.
      But he’s seemingly softened his stance, telling Boxing Social: “I understand that it could be a big fight. Do I rule it out forever?
      “I don’t think it would be wise in this crazy boxing world to rule anything out forever.
      “Obviously I don’t like what happened.
      “I do understand it’s a big fight but it’s not something we’re looking at at the moment.” More
