    And up until a recent video, which saw him kicking for the first time since the horror injury, most of McGregor’s training has been boxing.
    In a new clip, he showed off his famed left hand with thudding counter punches as well as sharp right hooks.
    McGregor, 33, captioned the post: “Call these Enders.”
    The former two-weight UFC champion appears to be on holiday having posed on a yacht and enjoying warm weather training.

    Meanwhile lightweight champion Charles Oliveira, 32, has also offered to defend his title against the returning Dubliner.
    Oliveira told ESPN Brazil: โ€œIt would be a very good fight for me.
    โ€œIt would put a lot of money in my pocket and thatโ€™s the most important thing.
    โ€œAnd it would also be really good for my legacy, for me to have in my story.
    โ€œRegardless, if heโ€™s coming from defeat or not, heโ€™s a guy whoโ€™s made history, so I think it would be great, but itโ€™s not just up to me.
    โ€œIf it were up to me, this fight would already be happening.
    “I have a daughter to raise. Everyone wants to fight Conor, itโ€™s not just me who wants to.
    โ€œEveryone knows that fighting Conor is very profitable. Iโ€™m talking about money, and Conor knows that everyone wants to fight him.โ€

    Ward hung up his gloves at 32-0 in 2017 after consecutive light-heavyweight wins over Sergey Kovalev, now 39.
    And he amazingly snubbed offers to fight Tony Bellew, 39, at cruiserweight and heavyweight Anthony Joshua, 32, to stay retired.
    Paul meanwhile is 5-0 and makes his return on August 6 at New York’s famed Madison Square Garden.
    But up until this point he is yet to fight a recognised boxer, instead facing a YouTube rival, ex-NBA star and two former MMA champions.

    Paul has called out Mayweather in the past, with the American legend continuing to box in exhibitions.
    He retired in 2017 after beating UFC icon Conor McGregor, 33, but has had three exhibitions since.
    They came against kickboxer Tenshin Nasukawa, Paul’s brother Logan, 27, and ex-sparring partner Don Moore.
    Mayweather recently announced his next fight will be against Japanese MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura, 29, in September.

    And he appeared to confirm MMA star Danis – known as McGregor’s jujitsu sparring partner – is on his radar.
    Paul said on Andrew Schulz’s podcast: “That’s right, you’re up next, Dillon Danis. Question, what the f*** is up with your face, man?
    “You look like a diabetic count chocula. You haven’t fought in three years.
    “OK, there are puppies in Sarah McLachlan’s commercials with more cage time than you.

    But the American confirmed he will fight again but is still locked in a dispute with Mayweather.
    The pair boxed over eight exhibition rounds in Miami with the spectacle bout going the distance.
    It meant Paul claimed a moral victory after technically avoiding defeat by surviving a knockout.
    But his mood soon soured after accusing Mayweather, 45, ofย not paying his fight purse in full.
    Not only has the boxing legend denied the accusation, he has even claimed Paul, who was supposedly short-changed,ย wanted a rematch.
    Floyd Mayweather, you punch drunk idiot, read my lips. Oh wait, you can’t. Where is my money, bitch? Floyd hasn’t paid me for our fight.Logan Paul
    He said in Las Vegas: โ€œHe wants part two. Now remember, this is the same guy that said he didnโ€™t get paid.
    “So, a lot of times stop listening to all the bulls*** that people [say]. You know, like I say, clout-chasing.
    “You know, when you bring Floyd Mayweather name up, you stay relevant. Iโ€™m always the reaction. Iโ€™m not the action, Iโ€™m the reaction.โ€
    But Paul was quick to hit back and doubled down on his claim – whileย taking a swipe at the unbeaten American icon.
    He said:ย “Floyd Mayweather, you punch drunk idiot, read my lips. Oh wait, you can’t.
    “Where is my money, bitch? Floyd hasn’t paid me for our fight.

    Terence Crawford names P4P top five list but leaves out Tyson Fury and puts bitter heavyweight rival ahead of Brit

    TERENCE CRAWFORD named his pound-for-pound boxing list – but Tyson Fury is nowhere to be seen.The 38-and-0 welterweight champion failed to name Fury in the top five best boxers and named himself above Mexican superstar Canelo Alvarez.

    Crawford, 34, recently told EsNews: โ€œTop five? – Man thatโ€™s hard, why you put me on the spot?”
    Then Crawford went on to list his top five, โ€œIโ€™ve got me, I got Canelo, Iโ€™ve got Errol [Spence Jr], I got [Naoya] Inoue, [Oleksandr] Usyk.”
    It means WBC heavyweight champion Fury, 33, not ranked with Ring Magazine, was left off the list but Usyk, 35, included.
    Crawford then went on to explain that he does not believe he gets the credit he deserves in boxing but reckons he will after retirement.
    Crawford said: โ€œI feel like Iโ€™m never given the credit I rightfully deserve, but itโ€™ll come when I retire
    โ€œAs far as the rankings are I believe I am already number one.
    Crawford continues to be linked to a mouthwatering match up with fellow unbeaten welterweight champ Errol Spence Jr.
    The Texan, who beat Yordenis Ugas on April 16, recently expressed his interest in finally facing Crawford after years of speculation with the pair.

    Crawford is yet to schedule a fight since his 10th round TKO win over Shawn Porter in November last year where the Nebraska fighter retained his WBO 147 pound world title.

    โ€˜It was totally wrongโ€™ โ€“ Anthony Joshuaโ€™s new trainer slams Usyk tactics for first fight but confident of rematch win

    ANTHONY JOSHUA deployed the “totally wrong” tactics against Oleksandr Usyk – but his new coach is confident in their devised game plan. AJ was comfortably outclassed by Usyk, who inherited the WBA, IBF and WBO belts, last September over 12 rounds.

    But he has since switched up his training team and brought in esteemed US mastermind Robert Garcia.
    And the former world champion, known for his tactical awareness, admitted mistakes were made the first time around.
    Garcia told iFL TV: “When you have somebody that’s a lot smaller than you and you have the weight, height, reach and power advantages then take advantage of that.
    “It seemed like they had a different game plan. I wouldn’t even want to say it was a ‘game plan’, maybe it was just the wrong instructions.

    Tyson Fury backed to KO Anthony Joshua AND Oleksandr Usyk as training partner Joseph Parker urges Gypsy King to return

    JOSEPH PARKER has backed training partner Tyson Fury to knock out both Anthony Joshua AND Oleksandr Usyk. Joshua rematch with Usyk is expected to take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia following his defeat in September.

    Fury could be waiting in the wings having confirmed his interest in coming out of retirement to fight the winner – but only if the money is right.
    And even when putting his friendship aside, Parker claimed the Gypsy King has the beating of AJ and Usyk, likely by KO too.
    He told Sky Sports: “Those are both great fighters, Joshua and Usyk, I just see Tyson being too much for them.
    “Everyone’s going to say I’m biased because I train with Tyson and we’re very close.
