    First, Fury pulled out due to injury before having to step away for the second time following some visa issues while trying to get into the US.
    And while in negotiations the third time around, it’s been reported that Fury wanted to wait until his baby with Molly Mae Hague was born until getting their big fight on.
    According to Paul, Fury and Molly-Mae’s baby HAS been born.
    What did Paul say about Fury and Molly Mae’s baby?
    Once the fight was announced, Paul tweeted: Paul tweeted: “Tommy has no excuses now – Baby’s born.
    “Money’s massive. Immigration no issue.”
    Fans were then quick to point out that an official announcement had not yet come from either Fury or Molly-Mae.
    When quizzed on leaking the news, Paul was unaware of what he’d done.

    “My bad. I’m sorry, Tommy. But don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone the gender or anything like that.
    Paul has also since doubled down on his claims that Tommy and Molly Mae’s baby has been born.
    “Yeah. It’s a bit bizarre. Two of his biggest life moments in a very short time period here,” Paul said about Fury’s situation.
    “I was telling my friends: I don’t know how he’s mentally going to be able to deal with that.
    “If I had a kid, I wouldn’t want to be showing up at the gym, so I think it’s going to be a distraction for him.” More

    British boxing fans were eager to see what all the hype surrounding the 17-stone teen was about.
    And it took only 14 seconds for them to see why so many in the business are so high on him.
    Itauma needed only THREE punches to take out fellow rookie Marcel Bode – whose head was frazzled by the Slovakian-born Brit’s piston straight right.
    Itauma’s final crushing blow was a true showcase of his power as Bode had his gloves up when he blocked a right hand.

    But he’ll have no problem with that as he’s hell-bent on replacing Tyson as the youngest heavyweight champion in history.
    He told SunSport: “Me and my brother have talked about me breaking that record and just looking at the dates and the maths, it is very doable.
    “Karol told me, ‘If anyone can do it then you can.’ And I believe I can do it.

    And last year Natalie was even crowned Miss Swimsuit UK, although her rise to stardom has been far from easy.
    She has previously spoken about bullying she had to overcome in her younger years.
    Following her Miss Swimsuit victory, Natalie said: “I’ve dropped out of so many things in the past because of confidence issues so I just went for it with this and it paid off.
    “When they announced the winner – I literally can’t even explain the feeling. I was so nervous and I wasn’t expecting to win, it’s one thing to take part but to actually win. I was so speechless. It was magical, I am so thankful.”

    She added: “I have felt so proud of myself; it took a while to sink in but I can’t help but smile when I think about my journey.
    “I entered into Miss Lancashire a few years back and dropped out – I was too overwhelmed at the time with self doubt.”
    Natalie followed up her Miss Swimsuit victory by competing in the US version of the contest in October.
    However, this time she was unable to pick up the gong, though there was some respite in her being named as one of Chamrz Magazine’s top 12 girls on their latest calender.
    Taking to her Instagram page afterwards, she said: “I have learned so much and will take on board all that I have learned for next year as I am so keen to go back and try even harder!
    “Bring on getting myself back in routine now that I am home! Refocusing and getting back in that gym after too many weeks off! 💪 I can’t wait to see you girls! Until we meet again ❤”

    His sick taunts of Conor McGregor’s fiancee, Dee Devlin, two years ago epitomised his willingness to leave no subject untouched – which, in hindsight, he puts down to immaturity.
    The Problem Child told SunSport last weekend: “It’s definitely a case-by-case basis.
    “I am older now – when I was talking s**t to Conor I was like 23 so I was a little bit more reckless.
    “I’ve definitely matured to 26 years old now.
