      AJ had the opportunity to meet former undisputed cruiserweight and unified heavyweight king Holyfield before his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk last August.
      The Brit posed for a snap with the 60-year-old after his open workout in Saudi, clenching his right fist as the American did the same.
      Victory over Whyte – who he knocked out nearly eight years ago – will see Joshua finalise a long overdue grudge match with Deontay Wilder.

      by

      TERENCE CRAWFORD is one of the best boxers in the world, but he can cement that spot against Errol Spence Jr this weekend. The WBO welterweight champion has a perfect boxing record, but none of it would be possible without the support of his family.

      Nebraska-born Crawford has often spoken about the love he has for his kids, but not much is known about his girlfriend Alindra Person.
      She’s expected to be ringside in Las Vegas for Crawford’s huge fight with Spence Jr.

      Who is Alindra Person?
      Alindra Person and Terence Crawford aren’t married, but they’ve been together since the early 2000s.

      They both met when they were young and have been in each other’s lives ver since.
      Person was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska, where Crawford also grew up.
      It’s not known what Person does for work, but she’s often seen supporting Crawford at many of his fights.
      How many kids do they have?
      Crawford and Person have six kids together.

      by

      MASKED thugs who robbed Amir Khan of his £72,000 diamond watch in a gunpoint raid in front of his crying wife have today been jailed.The boxer, 36, was left terrified as a gunman ran at him and demanded he “take off the watch”.

      Khan had been out for dinner with wife Faryal, 31, and friend Omar Khalid at the Sahara Grill in Leyton, East London, when the robbery took place.
      Dante Campbell, 20, and Ahmed Bana, 26, have now been jailed after admitting conspiracy to rob and possession of an imitation firearm.
      Campbell was given a seven year and nine month sentence while getaway driver Bana was jailed for nine years and eight months.
      Ahmed Bana, Nurul Amin and Ismail Mohammed, all 25, were previously cleared of conspiracy to commit robbery.
      In a victim impact statement, Khan told the court how the robbery affected his life.
      He added: “I am very fearful of going out particularly in London.
      “I avoid coming back to London, which I find sad because it’s where I grew up and spent my life.
      “I am constantly looking over my shoulder. I am very wary of people, even fans and friendly people who approach.
      Most read in Boxing
      “I was previously very friendly. I never said no to a fan who wanted to chat or take a photo.”
      Wife Faryal added: “I keep thinking that we could have been shot.”
      Shocking footage showed the moment Khan was robbed in the packed high street.
      The former world boxing champion could be seen smiling at first as he left the restaurant with his wife.
      He then crosses the road to get in a car driven by Omar when two men get out of a silver Mercedes coupe.
      A hooded man then runs towards Khan and raises his arm to point the gun at the boxer, who hands over his watch.
      The robbers then fled in the Mercedes, which was being driven by Bana.
      Khan previously revealed his horror as he told how he was left staring down the barrel of a gun.
      He said: “I am a sportsman, a fighter, I have been put in the toughest situations but this is something different, this is really really scary.
      “When he put the gun to my face I couldn’t recognise him because he had a mask on. I looked away because I didn’t want him to pull the trigger.
      “I didn’t know what he wanted at first, then he said, ‘Take off your watch’. When he said, ‘Take off your watch’ that’s when he hit me straight away.
      “I took it off straight away and that’s when I handed it to him.”
      Khan also told how Faryal was left “screaming and crying” following the horror.
      He told the court the rose-gold diamond encrusted watch, estimated to be worth £72,000, was given to him after he won a boxing fight.
      In April, Khan revealed the watch had been returned to him as he thanked the Met Police.

      He also revealed his plans to auction the watch off to “raise funds for the less fortunate”.
      Some of the proceeds will be donated to addressing gun and knife crime in the UK.

      “Haha He Is Going To Get Sparked,” one fan commented.
      “How’s this fight even happening just embarrassing. Couldn’t be more obvious he’s going for the pay check,” another wrote.
      A third shared: “Jake sleeps him round 2 max.”

      The clip comes just a month after his opponent Paul was seen with his cigarette in his mouth as trained on a speed bag.
      The Problem Child captioned a video: “Getting my lungs ready for 10 rounds. August 5th.”
      Paul was beaten for the first time in February, losing a split-decision in Saudi Arabia to Tommy Fury, 24.
      But he snubbed a rematch to face Diaz instead, who will be his FOURTH opponent formerly in the UFC.
      Paul has wins over ex-MMA champions Ben Askren, 38, Tyron Woodley, 41, and Anderson Silva, 48.
      But for the first time, he will fight over ten rounds and has agreed with Diaz to have the rules changed by the Texas commission.
      Paul has twice gone the eight round distance, in victory over Woodley the first time but then for defeat to Fury.
      Meanwhile, Diaz has gone the full five-round UFC distance over 25 minutes three times.
      Despite the two-round extension, Paul plans to finish the fight by the half way mark anyway.
      He said: “I’m ready, it’s not going to go that long.

      Corn got a little help from a cameraman as he unleashed a flurry of punches on Unbaer
      Behind them was a cameraman who was too close to the action.
      As Unbaer was slumped over the ropes, it appeared that he backed into the cameraman on the ring apron.
      Trying not to lose his balance, he frantically appeared to grab hold of the ropes.
      Instead, he accidentally struck Unbaer on the head.

      However, some fans have reacted differently on Twitter – claiming they believe the cameraman hit Unbaer on purpose.
      “Immediately fire this fool. No camera man should be putting hands on fighters AT ALL,” influencer boxing pundit Wade Plemons said.
      Another said: “During con vs unbaer match a camera man was beating @Unbaer0 face needs to be BANNED for life I’ve seen troll accs on twitter making bread for that s***. This s*** ain’t that funny. He is a human, and needs to be respected.”
      But others questioned why a cameraman would feel the need to slap Unbaer.

      “Y’all are coming after the camera man, but look closely. He clearly tried grabbing the rope, and notice how the camera starts to dip. He obviously didn’t want to be filming the floor, so had to quickly revert back to holding it properly,” another chimed in.
      A fourth added: “He reached for the rope and missed. Simples!”

      The influencer boxing clash took place in Nashville, US, and was a rematch of their bout two months ago.
