      And it was not only the crowd inside the 3Arena in Dublin who got an eyeful, with the Kingpyn even broadcast on DAZN.
      Daniella was on a high after the first victory of her career – having fallen to defeat in an earlier bout with Jully Poca in April.
      The influencer apologised for her actions in a post-fight interview with Fred Talks Boxing, saying: “I got a bit overwhelmed, I just wanted to express myself.”
      And her MMA fighter boyfriend, Akonne Wanliss told talkSPORT that while the celebration was prepared, she did not intend to take things so far.

      He said: “In YouTube boxing, they always do something to go viral and make a statement. That’s the name of the game in YouTube boxing,
      “It was planned beforehand. It was slightly different, we had nipple tassels but somewhere the nipples tassels got lost and her bare nipples were on show and everyone was going wild about that.
      “I always say good press is bad press and bad press is good press. You just have to take everything with a pinch of salt and own what you’ve done.
      Wanliss also hit back at Eddie Hearn’s criticism of his girlfriend – with Hearn saying he “hates” influencer boxing after the flashing incident and accusing it of detracting from women’s boxing.

      Wanliss accused Hearn of hypocrisy, given he stood next to Cherneka Johnson when she weighed in wearing nothing but body paint and an OnlyFans logo.
      He said: “You’ve got boxers who are OnlyFans girls that are doing full-on porn on OnlyFans and they are coming out wearing the OnlyFans logo, not even wearing clothes, to a weigh-in,
      “Essentially, they’ve got their t**s out, it’s just painted.
      “They are doing the same thing. And then you’ve got boxers and MMA fighters from other organisations kissing each other, showing their t**s after shows.
      “It happens. I’ve even seen Eddie Hearn standing with a title next to an OnlyFans girl. It’s very contradictory.
      “If I ever meet Eddie Hearn I’d be like, ‘Bruv, come on. You promote the thing.’
      “It doesn’t align with what he’s said before, but I don’t really care.” More

      Following her Saturday night flash, Matchroom supremo Eddie Hearn said: “My opinion is I hate it. I hate it, we’ve worked so hard for women in boxing to be respected for their ability, for their merits, for their hard work. One thing we must understand is that ain’t boxing.
      “And that needs to be pushed, all that stuff, Misfits, Kingpyn, it needs to be booted so far away from professional boxing and we really need to disassociate ourselves with what it is.”
      IBF women’s bantamweight champion Ebanie Bridges, who is also active on OnlyFans, defended Daniella, tweeting: “Ps – she had great boobs tbf hahaha & anyone who is going on about how it’s bad for women’s boxing – firstly it’s influencer boxing & secondly, it’s really not going to effect it, let’s be real.
      “All it’s gonna do is get that influencer more exposure, more followers & more money.”

      Tommy Fury faces deadline of THIS WEEK to agree huge KSI fight in warning by YouTube star’s manager

      by

      TOMMY FURY is faced with a deadline of THIS WEEK to finally agree terms to fight KSI. In February, Fury edged a split-decision win over KSI’s arch rival Jake Paul in their Saudi Arabia showdown.
      Tommy Fury facing off with KSICredit: Misfits boxing
      And it all but KO’d Paul’s proposed blockbuster grudge match with KSI, initially eyed for December.
      Paul, 26, also snubbed a rematch to instead return on August 5 in Texas against ex-UFC veteran Nate Diaz, 38.
      So KSI, 30, turned his attention to Fury, 24, but the pair found themselves squabbling over weight and financials.
      KSI’s manager Mams Taylor – also co-founder of Misfits Boxing – remained coy on negotiations when pressed by SunSport.

      But he said: “Whether it’s on or off, we should know some time this week.
      “I’m just going to let you know, this week is going to be an interesting week.” 
      KSI has made it clear Fury is absolutely his No1 target but even the determined YouTube, music and crossover boxing star has a deadline.
      And having seen opponents pullout in the past, Taylor warned they will have alternatives should Fury fail to accept.

      He said: “There’s always a threat it’s not a done deal until you have the signed contracts, there’s always a threat after you have the signed contracts. 
      “This is boxing, someone could get injured, it’s not celeb darts. We’ve had some bad luck with pullouts and you have to think fast. 
      “We’ve had to come up with creative solutions and it won’t be any different if anyone pulls out of our fights, we always try to have ones on standby.
      “But, I do believe this is a great fight and a great test for JJ and I think he’s got this in the bag if they do end up fighting.”

      Tyson Fury includes clause in Francis Ngannou fight contract in case he is KO’d by ex-UFC champ

      TYSON FURY has placed a rematch clause in his contract with Francis Ngannou in case disaster strikes in the crossover clash.The Gypsy King faces the former UFC heavyweight champion in a multi-million-pound Saudi showdown on October 28.

      Fury, 34, is the overwhelming favourite to win the ten-rounder against the boxing novice – but he’s made sure he’ll get a second crack at the Cameroonian clubber should the unthinkable happen.
      During an appearance on The MMA Hour, Ngannou revealed: “There is a potential rematch clause.
      “I don’t know exactly how to explain that language, but yes, there is a rematch inside it.”
      When asked if that would guarantee a second fight with the WBC heavyweight champ, Ngannou added: “Oh, for that one, definitely.”

      Ngannou, however, doesn’t know if he’ll be able to exercise the rematch clause should he come up short against the Brit.
      He said: “That’s what I don’t know. We will see how it goes.”
      Fury would have to wait at least SIX MONTHS to exact revenge on Ngannou as The Predator is set to make his Professional Fighters League debut early next year.
      The Wythenshawe warrior is also expected to re-enter negotiations with Oleksandr Usyk over a historic undisputed heavyweight title fight after his clash with Ngannou.

      Ngannou bagged a monumental showdown with Fury a mere six months after the expiration of his UFC contract.
      And his purse for his professional boxing debut is set to dwarf his ENTIRE octagon earnings.
      During an appearance on The MMA Hour, his manager Marquel Martin said: “Let’s just say this: The bag is so big, he may actually just drop it on the way to the bank.
      “I don’t know what the haters are trying to say right now, I kind of just blocked it out, but they’ll just be proven wrong again.

      “This is life-changing. This is exactly what we planned and visualised, so we’re happy.”
      When asked if Ngannou’s earnings for the fight will be more than his UFC winnings, Martin added: “Oh, my God. I mean, by far.
      “By multiples.
      “Just to make [this money] even while being champion, he would’ve had to fight multiple times just to [be in this ballpark].” More

      I was homeless and stripping for cash before turning to MMA… now I’m one of the biggest boxing influencers in world

      by

      ANTHONY TAYLOR was stripping for cash and sleeping rough before turning to MMA… now he is a star of influencer boxing. Taylor was 25 when he began training for MMA in 2013, going on to have over ten amateur bouts in two years.

      But after moving to Los Angeles, the American fell on hard times and took a job stripping to earn money.
      Taylor, 34, told SunSport: “I was a stripper, I had nothing. 
      “I wasn’t doing nothing with my life, I was homeless, nowhere to go and I was stripping. I was just enjoying life as a bum who had no goals, nothing.” 
      Taylor relocated from Alameda in California to LA to train with coach Antonio McKeee and his champion son AJ.

      It was AJ – working security at a gentleman’s club – who got Taylor the male stripping job through a bartender who also worked there.
      He revealed: “It was all men who danced and nothing but women who came in. 
      “It was kind of like Magic Mike. And that’s how I got into it, I did it for a couple months, made really good money and kept at it.”
      Taylor earned up to $300 a night (£230) to take his kit off and also drove Uber but still he was without a home.
      Most read in Boxing
      CASINO SPECIAL – BEST ONLINE CASINOS FOR 2023
      He went from sleeping on benches, sofa surfing and even staying in one of his coach’s gyms to get by.
      Taylor remembered: “Those times were low, the lowest times of my life.
      “Having to endure that for such a long period of time really moulded the person I am now. 
      “I was able to go through that experience and live it and understand it. Now in my life, I can say, I don’t ever wanna be there again. 
      “That low, no friends, no family, nothing. I don’t want to experience that again, so I’ll build my own family, build my own friends. I build my foundation and talent.” 
      Eventually, Taylor’s MMA career picked up and by 2018 he was fighting regularly enough and living with his trainer Antonio.
      Taylor notched five wins in a row in the cage, which caught the attention of the UFC.
      He was told should he win twice more, a deal with MMA’s premier promotion would be on the table.

      But then, a phone call would change the course Taylor’s life and career forever.
      He said: “Jake Paul’s coach BJ Flores calls me, ‘Hey, you wanna be Jake’s sparring partner, great opportunity, you’ll make some good money, invest it. Get you in the scene.’
      “That’s how I got into the scene with Jake Paul.” 
      Taylor left behind his UFC ambitions to join Paul’s camp, as the YouTuber-turned boxer made his mark in the sport.
      He was a sparring partner before Paul beat ex-MMA champions Ben Askren, 38, and Tyron Woodley, 41.
      From there, Taylor also got the chance to fight on Paul’s undercard twice, losing to Tommy Fury, 24, and Chris Avila, 30.
      But his time in the camp pushed his profile to new heights and saw him feature on several influencer boxing shows.
      Taylor said: “Coming into the scene, Jake helped put me on.

      “But from there on I was able to use my own platform and make myself grow self efficiently. I give Jake credit for getting me into the game and I appreciate it. 
      “But also, I have to give myself credit because, yeah he can put you on but you have to keep doing what you’re doing so you can stay on.”
      Life could have been so much different had Taylor focussed on the UFC instead of crossover boxing – but does he feel he made the correct call?
      Taylor responded: “I wouldn’t say I made the right choice, I just stumbled into it at the right time. 
      “And I manifested this. I said I’d be one of the biggest influencers in the world and now I am, baby.” 
      Taylor returns on Saturday night in Nashville on a Misfits Boxing card, promoted by superstar KSI.
      And he faces rival Paul Bamba, 33, known for his cancelled bout with Fury last year and recent loss to Avila.
      The stakes are high for Taylor, who is coming off a win over TikTok sensation Salt Papi, but he insists 5-3 Bamba is no match for him.

      He said: “I stop him. He doesn’t have anything that poses a threat to me in the ring.
      “It’s not like he’s going to show me something I haven’t seen before.”

      Anthony Joshua points to Froch’s NOSE as reason he ditched ex-trainer McCracken as he bids to become world champ again

      by

      ANTHONY JOSHUA has singled out Carl Froch’s NOSE as the reason he left former trainer Rob McCracken.AJ ditched his old Team GB coach following his first unanimous points decision defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.

      The Watford warrior then entrusted his career to Robert Garcia for his Usyk rematch, only to lose a second time.
      He has since moved to Derrick James in a bid to become a three-time world champion.
      His first fight under James saw him comfortably beat Jermaine Franklin, with Joshua now in line for a rematch against Dillian Whyte on August 12 at the O2 Arena.
      But now the 33-year-old has opened up on his split with McCracken, and explained why he believes his decision to part ways was correct.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      Speaking to Boxing News, Joshua said: “Rob McCracken’s a really good coach, the only thing I’d say is look at Carl Froch’s nose. He just didn’t teach me defence.
      “And in heavyweight boxing, the level of competition I was facing at that stage of my career, I was getting hit way too much with clean shots.

      “I was sparring Solomon Dacres… the tall six foot five guy, in Miami for [Andy] Ruiz, who’s five foot.
      “Rob was in Japan for the Olympics. He only came back seven weeks before it. I just know it’s not good enough for where I’m at.
      Most read in Boxing
      CASINO SPECIAL – BEST ONLINE CASINOS FOR 2023
      “Derrick reminds me of Rob but a lot more invested… Rob was too committed to the Olympic team, not pros.
      “I gave Rob my best years, now I’ve got to dig deep to get them back.”
      AJ has previously insisted he split with McCracken on amicable terms.
      However, retired super-middleweight champion Froch gave his take on the split in June on his Froch on Fighting YouTube channel.
      The 46-year-old said: “I would say he should have stayed with Rob McCracken and sorted out any beef they had. I don’t think AJ should have left him.
      “I think that if he would have stayed with Rob McCracken and listened to him, that’s the key difference here, I used to listen to Rob and when he told me something or gave me any advice, I did it without question.
      “Now, I don’t think that was happening with AJ, because he always questions things, he is quite an inquisitive guy.
      “He lost twice to Usyk, he’s a great fighter, there’s no shame in losing to him.
      “I just think that the tactics and the way that he went about the rematch, I think that if he was with Rob McCracken, and he would have listened to him and his experience, and executed a game plan, then the result could have been different.” More

      Anthony Joshua says he needs to ‘stay consistent and throw them silk pyjamas in the bin’ ahead of Dillian Whyte fight

      The suggestion is too much money and success takes the hunger and spite out of boxers – especially those that have dragged themselves out of poverty.
      Watford’s London 2012 icon has amassed a reported £170million and seemed on the slide since the 2019 loss to Andy Ruiz Jr.
      But – ahead of his all-London rematch with Dillian Whyte on August 12 – the two-time heavyweight champ revealed he keeps it stripped back in the bedroom.
      “You see me in the same clobber every time I come to a press conference,” he laughed in his trademark black tracksuit.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      “I take it serious. I hate losing.
      “But, due to the fact I’ve lost, it gives an element of conversation.
      “But, what’s beautiful about sports is there’s always a next opportunity to prove yourself.
      “There’s a process that I’m following and I just know that, if we look at history, everything will work out for me.

      “I’m not going to be the first athlete to go through it and I’m not going to be the last. 
      “So, I’ve just got to ride the wave, stay consistent and throw them silk pyjamas in the bin.”
      Since that shock stoppage loss to the porky little Mexican, AJ has reinvented himself and his team a few times and he is fixated on becoming a more defensive and technical boxer.
      Decade-long mentor Rob McCracken and their Team GB base in Sheffield were ditched, a brief move to Loughborough and spells with unproven trainers Angel Fernandez and Joby Clayton failed.
      Respected Robert Garcia only lasted one bout – despite it being the Oleksandr Usyk rematch in which Joshua showed improvements on the original loss.
      Now he is based in Dallas, Texas, with Derrick James – a trainer celebrated for his aggressive approach – and still trying to overhaul his style at the late age of 33.
      Joshua knows a large section of fight fans are baffled by his recent decisions but he believes there is method to his perceived madness.
      He said: “Everyone can write you off, but if you believe in yourself and you continue on your journey, 100 per cent you will overcome. It’s just fact. 
      “Only you can defeat yourself. Not anyone else. 

      “If I give up and say: ‘Yeah, I haven’t got it anymore’, then you can say I’m not the same fighter.
      “But I just know this is going to work. 
      “If people look at you like you’re crazy, which people probably think I am now – and ask why am I not being aggressive – but I just know what I’m doing is going to work at the right time.”
      Opponent Whyte has had his fair share of cornermen too but his all-action style, sharp tongue and fearsome left hook remain the same.
      So AJ – who lost to Whyte in the amateurs but got revenge in a 2015 screamer – knows to be aware of his bark and bite.
      He said: “Look how many times he’s moved trainers, he’s moved trainers so many times. 
      “Maybe he’s not developing at the rate he needs to, or people aren’t teaching him the things he needs to learn and it’s not good enough. He probably knows it himself. 
      Read More on The Sun
      “That’s probably why he’s moved trainers so much.
      “But one thing that he has got is the fight and in America they call it ‘the dog’. He’s got the dog in him.” More
