      ‘Deluded’ Eddie Hearn reveals shock Anthony Joshua predictions for Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury fights

      by

      Talks for the long-overdue grudge match – which is currently targeted for January – between AJ and the Bronze Bomber resumed after Joshua knocked out short-notice replacement Robert Helenius last month.
      The British heavyweight’s Matchroom promoter Hearn claimed this weekend that the fight had taken a huge step towards coming to fruition from a financial standpoint.
      However, he also admitted they’re currently without a site for the dust-up, which should determine who is next in line to face WBC title holder Fury, while Wilder’s trainer Malik Scott has also cast doubt on the bout.
      Many still hope that the Gypsy King himself will finally seal an undisputed showdown with Oleksandr Usyk, the man who dethroned Joshua.

      Many still remain unconvinced about AJ, even though he has bounced back from successive defeats to Usyk with two victories.
      But Hearn told talkSPORT that he has no doubts that the 33-year-old will eventually climb back to the top of the heavyweight mountain, saying: “I’m Anthony Joshua’s No1 fan.
      “In my head – call me deluded – but he’s gonna knock out Deontay Wilder and then he’s gonna knock out Tyson Fury, he’s gonna become the undisputed heavyweight world champion, and then we’re gonna sail off into the sunset.
      “Call me deluded, I don’t care what you call me, I see it, we have the vision for that.”

      However, not many boxing fans appear to be as confident as Hearn.
      Reacting to his bold claim, one tweeted: “Sorry Eddie but that’s not happening.”
      “Oh, you crazy,” read another tweet, while a fellow social media user said: “Afraid not a chance! Wilder will finish AJ career if he chooses that route.”
      And another said: “Eddie Hearn never amazes me with all his egregious comments.
      “This has got to be the most outlandish comment by Eddie yet. Absolutely, unreal.” More

      Brazilian jiu-jitsu whizz Danis’ clash with the elder Paul brother will mark his professional boxing debut.
      And he’s accused the YouTuber-turned-boxer of sending one of his cronies to his gym to spy on his spars and report back their findings.
      Danis made the sensational accusation – which also included Paul’s brother Jake – on Twitter after seeing footage of himself going to war during a sparring session with one of his training partners.
      He tweeted: “Shane Mosley was right; the Pauls send spies into camps for any advantage because they suck.

      “But it’s okay; with 20 seconds left in the round, my partner—who is a 15-time Brazilian world kickboxing champion—and I said, ‘Let’s go for it.’

      Agdal also accused him of sharing a 10-year-old X-rated photo of herself from a “romantic encounter” with a former partner.
      And according to TMZ, a court has found in her favour and placed a temporary restraining order against Danis.

      The WBC recently ranked Wilder and Joshua, 37 and 33 respectively, as their No1 and No2 heavyweights – meaning they could slap mandatory status on the fight.
      And it’s been claimed the Mexican sanctioning body could look to strip Fury of the belt if he refuses to face the winner of the fight.
      World Boxing News claims Fury “faces being stripped” of the prestigious green and gold title if he doesn’t agree to trade leather with either man.
      Fury hasn’t defended his WBC crown since his one-sided beatdown of Derek Chisora at Wembley last December.

      And the belt WON’T be on the line in his upcoming controversial crossover clash with former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia next month.
      The WBC have, however, put a gimmick “Riyadh Champion” belt up for grabs for the Saudi showdown.
      Before Fury can worry about potentially being stripped, Joshua promoter Eddie Hearn must first find a site willing to stage his mammoth melee with Wilder.
      During an appearance on BBC Five Live, he said: “We’ve agreed the money. We’ve agreed everything.

      Killer Bee seems to have found her home in the sport’s top promotion, winning three of her five brutal bouts in BKFC.
      Bare-knuckle boxers seldom escape bouts without brutal facial injuries – which are part and parcel of the trade.
      But Starling was left looking unrecognisable after her 2021 clash with fellow OnlyFans star Charisa Sigala – a former opponent of ex-UFC star Paige VanZant.
      The mum-of-two was victorious in the five-rounder, having her hand raised courtesy of a unanimous decision victory.

      But she was left with multiple war wounds for her efforts, the worst of which was a horrific shiner under her right eye.
      A bloody and dented nose was an additional reward for the American as well as a swollen top lip.
      Speaking after her BKFC debut, Starling said: “It was really tough, it was fun – I enjoyed it.
      “It was definitely a different ball game but I had a blast.”

      Being cracked to the face by bare knuckles took some getting used to for the blonde bruiser.
      She said: “The thing that surprised me the most was that small shots hurt really bad. There are big shots that don’t hurt as bad.
      “But something as simple as taking a knuckle and slicing your eyebrow – a small knuckle definitely hurts a lot more than you think.”
      Starling dished out her fair share of punishment to Sigala, whom she dropped in the first round.
      She said of her foe: “She had a lot of heart. I definitely thought she was going to be put away and that we weren’t going to go the full five rounds.
      “But I’m glad we did because I enjoy taking it all in and taking those five rounds and really putting a show on for people.
      “Because that’s what people come for.”
      Starling picked up back-to-back wins over Cassie Robb and Hannah Guy after her clash with Sigala before suffering a 40-second defeat to Christine Ferea.
      She got back in the win column with a boxing win over Angelica Martinez but suffered a second successive BKFC defeat to Jade Masson-Wong in May.
      When she’s not in the ring, Starling is hard at work looking after her two children.
