    Joshua and Whyte will collide at the O2 Arena on Saturday August 12.
    The duo have already fought each other twice, with the score tied at one apiece.
    And next month’s trilogy battle will decide who comes out on top once and for all.
    Many boxing fans cannot separate the pair, with AJ and Whyte both proving themselves to be top fighters.

    But American brawler Jermaine Franklin has had the honour of facing them both in the past 10 months, losing both times.
    And he reckons Joshua will emerge victorious.
    That’s because Whyte’s pattern of play is too predictable.
    But Franklin reckons he could yet spring a surprise thanks to his powerful punches.

    Franklin told Boxing Social: “I see AJ winning only because I kind of got adjusted to Dillian’s style early, and it didn’t really change.
    “He tried to change it a little bit but he kinda stayed the same. With Anthony, he’s just gonna use his jab a lot.
    “If he can get Dillian to the point to where he’s got him kind of stagnant or he’s not doing a lot, the jab will win the fight easy.
    “But, at the same time, Dillian does have a couple nice punches that he can throw.
    “If he get in there he can do some damage, who knows how the fight may go. But I still think I got AJ coming out on points.” More

    Carl Froch brutally tells Tyson Fury he ‘hasn’t done enough’ to enter boxing Hall of Fame – he must win two fights first

    He says that Tyson Fury has currently not ‘done enough’ to get inductedCredit: Getty
    The cross-sport clash will happen under Queensberry rules over 10 rounds and WON’T be for undefeated Fury’s WBC title.
    Fury, who has already labelled Ngannou a “big, stiff tramp” that he could KO after downing 15 pints, has got pelters from boxing purists for taking the bout after months of failed negotiations elsewhere.
    Fans are desperate to see him in an undisputed decider with WBA, WBO and IBF champ Oleksandr Usyk or an overdue all-English clash with Anthony Joshua.
    But the Morecambe showman, 34, insists that he has offered both men lucrative deals and they are the ones to blame for him branching out into big-money freak fights.
    READ MORE ON SPORT
    Ex-super middleweight title holder Froch, 46, was inducted into boxing’s Hall of Fame earlier this year.
    And he recently told BettingSites that Fury WOULD NOT be joining him in there unless he “dared to be great” and took on the fights that everybody wants rather than these cross-combat ones.
    Froch said: “I was inducted for wins. I dared to be great. I took on young unbeaten fighters like George Groves.
    “Now that’s a legacy. That’s a career worthy of the Hall of Fame.

    “Does Fury deserve it? A great win against [Wladimir] Klitschko, a trilogy win against [Deontay] Wilder, that’s not enough.
    “If he beats AJ, beats Usyk, then yes.”
    Going on to explain what he thought merited an induction, Froch added: “There are different rules on whether or not you make it into the Hall of Fame.
    “You can go in as a competitor or a participant or something else. You can be a promoter.
    “Anthony Joshua for example, what he’s done for boxing, he’s brought it to a whole new audience. He’s followed on from my 80,000 at Wembley Stadium.
    “What he’s done for the sport is transcend it and take it to the next level so for that alone you could say that’s a Hall of Fame career.” More

    Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn slammed the flashing, saying he “hated it”.

    “But you always ask for my opinion and my opinion is that I hate it.

    “We’ve worked so hard for women in boxing to be respected for their ability, for their merits and for their hard work.
    “One thing we must understand is that it is not boxing.
    “Misfits and Kingpyn needs to be booted so far away from professional boxing and we need to disassociate ourselves with what it is.”
    Regardless of Hearn’s view, Daniella is now at the top of the Kingpyn table, but it’s been a long journey.

    Speaking to the Mail, she admitted the divorce of her parents hit her hard and saw her gain weight.

    “I stopped going to school as my mental health deteriorated and I didn’t have any friends either.
    “I had no life and I didn’t look after myself.”
    TIKTOK STAR
    After bouncing back from her trials and tribulations, Daniella ended up becoming a star on TikTok.

    Casino special – best no deposit bonus offers
    Follow ALL of the latest from Dublin below…
    Kenny says
    “We put in so much hard work. But I want to thank God for helping through me camp physically and mentally. Thank you to Whindersson for giving me this opportunity and thank you to Brazil for coming out tonight, you’ve got amazing energy.
    “I had my jab so easy and clean from round one. I was able to work everything off that. It wasn’t easy, he kept coming forward like the Terminator and was eating my punches.”
    Breaking news
    AnEson Gib will fight King Kenny in the Kingpyn High Stakes men’s tournament final.
    That bout will likely take place later this year.
    Kenny completely dominated Whindersson in the main event of tonight’s card in Dublin.
    Kenny wins!
    Was there ever any doubt?
    King Kenny wins it 50-44 on all three scorecards.
    He takes his place in the final of Kingpyn with a brilliant performance.
    Round 5
    It’s over. Whindersson has been put out of his misery.
    Kenny has literally toyed with him for five rounds. A quite stunning performance.
    The judges will make it official…
    Round 4
    This is nothing more than a sparring session for Kenny at the moment.
    He’s picking his shots and landing at will. Combinations, flurries, hooks, jabs. It’s all there for Kenny at the moment.
    The crowd is silenced. Whindersson is trying everything and is having no joy.
    One more round and it would have to be something very dramatic for Kenny not to win this.
    Round 3
    Whindersson trying his hardest to get into this fight, but he just can’t get near Kenny.
    The Watford man is in complete control and wins another round.
    Kenny might be wearing Brazil colours, but his teammates are lapping it up in Argentina football shirts and a replica World Cup.
    Round 2
    What a massive round for Kenny and Whindersson seemingly has no answers.
    Kenny is walking him down and dominating.
    The fans are trying to lift the Brazilian, but this is one way traffic.
    Whindersson down!
    Whindersson is down! HUGE left hook!
    So much for Kenny showboating but not hurting in round one.
    Well he’s on fire here in round two and looking to finish Whindersson.
    He and his fans are stunned.
    Round 1
    Kenny puts on a show in round one.
    Not sure how much he impacted or hurt Nunes really, but he certainly showed his showboating and flashiness.
    Round one to Kenny for sure with his slick boxing on the outside. Whindersson yet to get going.
    Seconds out
    The formalities are over, the fighters have had their final instructions.
    We’re ready to roll in the main event of the evening.
    Electric atmosphere in Dublin.
    What an entrance
    The roof just came off this place as Whindersson made his entrance.
    Incredible noise in the arena. He rapped along to the words as well.
    We’re all set for a cracker.
    Here we go
    King Kenny is on his way to the ring, playing Brazilian music and wearing the Brazil colours on his robe.
    He knows exactly what he’s doing in front of a pro-Brazilian crowd cheering on Whindersson.
    Main event
    Who will AnEson Gib face in the Kingpyn High Stakes tournament final?
    We’ll find out very shortly with Whindersson and Kenny set to make their way to the ring.
    Gib says
    “I have all respect for Jarvis. Kenny, Whindersson I’m coming for you. Whoever wins I’ll see you in the final.
    “People said I was underestimating him but he’s nothing I didn’t know. I smoked him for five rounds.”
    Gib wins!
    It’s comprehensive and unanimous. AnEson Gib is into the final of the Kingpyn tournament.
    Very impressive.
    Round 5
    And it’s over. We go to the scorecards.
    Gib looks the happier man and for good reason. He took control of that bout in the second half.
    We’ll see how the judges saw it in just a second.
    Round 4
    Gib really stamping his authority now. He’s in the ascendancy here and Jarvis is getting left behind.
    He’s being pushed back and worn down. One round to go and it looks like Jarvis needs to win it, if not get a knockdown.
    Round 3
    Gib with some brilliant combinations that catch the eye and get a roar from the crowd in round three.
    It’s good, but it’s few and far between. Jarvis hanging in with him through the rounds other than for a few Gib clashes.
    Round 2
    Jarvis begins round two how he started round one and does a better job of maintaining his flow.
    A much better showing from him and a close round. Very tough to score.
    Cagey so far. Not many big shots thrown or landed.
    Round 1
    Gib finishes the round very strong. He probably does enough to steal it.
    Jarvis started very well but seemed to lose his way and his timing deserved him as the round went on.
    Gib grew into it and was boxing very well towards the end of it.
    Seconds out
    Gib vs Jarvis is underway in Dublin. The co-main event and first men’s semifinal.
    A lot of this crowd are awaiting their Brazilian hero in the main event – Whindersson Nunes.
    Here we go then…
    Jarvis is on his way to the ring with Living on a Prayer playing at the 3 Arena.
    The first semifinal just moments away.
    Fury time?
    Crosbie has called out Tommy Fury after that impressive win.
    He said: “Step in here with me you little B*tch and I’ll slap the head off ya!”
    Fury is closing in on a fight against KSI, but this one would certainly be interesting.
    It’s unanimous
    Kiefer Crosbie wins! 50-45 on two cards and 48-45 on the other.
    Not sure what the 48-45 score was about but it’s a unanimous win and deservedly so.
    Round 5
    It’s over. The fighters put the bad blood behind them and hug in the ring.
    We go to the scorecards but this one is surely going to Crosbie, even if he didn’t have a knockdown.
    Disappointing night for Chalmers, especially after getting in the ring with Floyd Mayweather last time out.
    But we wait for the scorecards.

    I’m sorry for sexting other women, says married Amir Khan as he reveals drastic step he’s willing to take to stop

    MARRIED former world champion boxer Amir Khan says he is willing to have therapy to stop him sexting other women.And he has apologised to wife Faryal after she asked him, “If you have a diamond at home, why do you want to mess around with rocks and stones?”
    Amir Khan, pictured with wife Faryal, says he is willing to have therapy to stop him sexting other womenCredit: Doug Seeburg
    The boxing world champ’s marriage has dogged by cheating stormsCredit: Reuters
    Faryal tore strips off him after reading The Sun on Sunday’s story two weeks ago of how he begged a model for cheeky pictures and asked her to meet him.
    Now Amir, 36 — whose marriage has been dogged by cheating storms — has revealed he would be willing to see a specialist, admitting he has “made mistakes” and “hurt” his wife.
    Asked if he would attend therapy sessions if Faryal wanted him to, he said: “That question hasn’t been brought up before.
    “But maybe I do need help to stop me from messaging other women.
    READ MORE ON AMIR KHAN
    “I am willing to go to ­therapy to stop me sending texts to women who aren’t my wife.
    “I think nowadays with mental health issues, any help goes a long way. It’s definitely something I would do. Things like that do help, so maybe it’s something to think about.”
    Faryal confronted him at their home in Dubai earlier this month when she saw our story about Amir begging bridal model Sumaira, 25, for racy pictures and trying to meet up with her.
    He approached her online in May in the run-up to his and Faryal’s 10th wedding anniversary, initially complimenting her on her tattoos.
    Most read in Boxing
    But his messages quickly turned saucy. In one, Amir told Sumaira: “U look good on g string” and suggested she had a boob job.
    Sumaira sent him one snap in clothes showing off her rose-tattooed midriff, to which Amir replied: “Can’t stop looking.”
    In another, he promised to delete any cheeky pictures.
    He asked: “Think I wanna get caught out?”
    Furious Faryal, 31, who shares three children with Amir, hit out at her man over the exchange.
    Amir, who starred in I’m A Celebrity . . .  in 2017 and in the all-star version in South Africa in May, said: “She was disgusted. It’s not a nice thing to do.
    “She was very angry because I shouldn’t be speaking to people like that.
    “She said, ‘If you have a diamond at home, why do you want to mess around with rocks and stones?’
    “It’s not nice what I’ve done. One day my kids will grow up and read this stuff, and it will upset them.
    “I don’t think I was cheating, it was just a few texts. But I regret doing it.
    “I can only apologise to Faryal. People have been messaging her about it, saying, ‘Did you see this article?’ — rubbing it in her face. It’s sad.”
    Amir whisked model Faryal off for a romantic kid-free holiday to Mykonos last week, travelling there by private jet.
    Speaking from the Greek island, he said: “The stupidest thing I did was to comment on this woman’s picture saying ‘nice’.
    “I shouldn’t have done it. I have respect for my wife.
    “I think I do these things out of boredom — I don’t think it’s that I can’t help myself.
    “You get bored and start making mistakes.
    “If I’m not careful, I will get myself into trouble — especially with the wife. She will end up saying, ‘I’ve had enough’.”
    Amir, who won 34 of his 40 career fights, went on: “I’m used to focusing on boxing all the time but now that’s finished, maybe I need to start getting into something again.
    “I want to get back into training and I have been asked to do a few exhibitions. There’s also a few TV shows I want to do.”
    After our story, Amir said Sumaira begged him for £20,000, telling him she was going through a rough patch.

    Amir was exposed after he sent a string of raunchy messages to Sumaira
    Sumaira then accused him of lying in a TikTok video and threatened to reveal more of their messages.
    Faryal lashed out at Sumaira online, saying: “Even when I was single I never gave a guy my number. Let alone a married one. Simple.”
    Speaking to The Sun on Sunday, Sumaira claimed Amir told her in a phone call that he and Faryal “were not properly together” and “that it was a bit of a business arrangement”.
    Bolton-born Amir, who now splits his time between the UK and Dubai, hit back, saying: “Women message you because they know they can get something from you.
    “My missus is my queen and I don’t want to hurt her. Our marriage is great at the moment.”
    Amir, who fought in four weight categories during his time as a professional, retired from boxing in May last year — three months after he lost to Sheffield fighter Kell Brook, 37, in a bout at Manchester’s AO Arena.
    In April this year, he was banned from sport for two years, backdated a year, after performance-enhancing drug ostarine was found to have been in his system on the night of the fight.
    A tribunal accepted Amir’s argument that the violation was not intentional.
    Amir and Faryal starred in BBC series Meet the Khans: Big in Bolton, which finished its third season earlier this year.
    The pair were introduced at a New York restaurant by mutual friends in 2011, and wed two years later in a £1million bash at the city’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel.
    In another ceremony in the UK, ex-Man Utd footballers Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand were among the 4,000 guests.
