    Meet Carla Howe, the Playboy model-turned-ring girl who has equally glamorous twin and loves to strip down to bikinis

    DOUBLING UP might be the easiest skill for ex-Playboy model Carla Howe to learn as she progresses from ring girl to boxer.That’s because the Anthony Joshua fan has a twin sister, Melissa, who was in the Playboy mansion with her.
    Carla Howe has danced with Floyd Mayweather but ‘loves’ Anthony Joshua
    Carla had to pull out of fighting AJ Bunker due to an injury in sparring

    Carla says ex-heavyweight king Anthony Joshua is ‘humble’ and ‘so good-looking’
    Carla’s move into boxing has been on The Money so far – as the ring girl for Floyd Mayweather now has one million Instagram followers.
    And only a training injury stopped her from going in the middle of the ring this year rather than just around it.
    She was due to fight 2021 Love Island star AJ Bunker.
    But Carla said: “I actually got injured in sparring, I fractured a rib, I’m so happy I got an X-Ray which I posted on Instagram which proves me injury.”

    Sister Melissa, meanwhile, has dated rapper Lil Wayne and was at footballer Dele Alli’s 21st birthday bash six years ago.
    Alli’s career has gone downhill since, whereas the Howe twins are thriving.
    Carla even danced with Mayweather in the ring.
    And followers have labelled her “perfect” as well as “doll face” – which she must hope won’t be the state of her facial responses if she ever does fight.

    She’s also not short of confidence.
    When posting a panoramic pic from a lagoon across a sky of puffy clouds, she wrote: “Am I the view? … love this bikini.”
    Luckily, her fans responded in the affirmative, one saying: “Best view forever.”

    Ring Magazine release top 10 heavyweight rankings with one new addition after STUNNING KO win

    ZHILEI ZHANG has punched his way into title contention as a top five heavyweight contender after battering Joe Joyce. The 2012 Olympic silver medallist stunned Joyce this month with a brutal sixth-round stoppage victory.

    Joyce’s right eye was so grotesquely swollen the referee had no choice but to wave it off following advice from the ringside medic.
    The win meant Zhang, 39, inherited the WBO interim title and mandatory position for Oleksandr Usyk’s title.
    He also moved up to fourth in the Ring Magazine rankings with Joyce, 37, down to seven following the first loss in his career.
    Usyk still leads the way at the top with the Ring, WBA, IBF and WBO belts to his name.

    But he was unable to unify all four belts for the first time in heavyweight history as talks to fight Tyson Fury broke down.
    As a result, Fury sits just behind with old rival Deontay Wilder named in second.
    Anthony Joshua is placed in third but could leap above Wilder with the two in talks to fight in Saudi Arabia in December.
    Andy Ruiz Jr sits in fifth and is in line to face Fury this summer following the collapse of the undisputed title decider.

    Dillian Whyte is sixth, a place above Joyce, and wants to rematch AJ in the summer having not fought since November,
    Elsewhere, Luis Ortiz is eighth, Joseph Parker in ninth and Filip Hrgovic ranking just inside the top ten.
    It means the likes of Daniel Dubois and Otto Wallin sit outside the Ring Magazine rankings.

    Nicknamed Barbi, she has a Ken-do attitude to her success – by embracing hard work.
    Apollonia said: “I love being a part of Misfits events. It’s like one big family! It’s more like a social event for me rather than work.
    “The whole package. I love all the hype for it and the leading up days. It’s so fun!”
    Fans certainly feel the same way, although one dished out a rather back-handed compliment to her bikini by saying: “Sexiest belly ever.”

    And the promoter has rubbished suggestions that Wilder is the favourite to win the fight.
    He told ESBR Boxing: “Joshua has boxed everybody that he’s been asked to box and now it’s a fight to avoid against Deontay Wilder?
    “If you think AJ is an underdog in that fight, in my opinion, you’re mad.
    “It’s just one of the greatest fights in boxing, so let’s roll the dice and see AJ put it on the line in a massive fight.

    “Do you want to see the most exciting fights? Because they come with a lot of risk.
    “AJ will box his ears off, but if he gets caught – like anyone else in the division – he could get stopped in that fight.
    “Wilder is very dangerous but if he hits Wilder on the chin, he’s knocking him clean out.
    “It’s just one of the greatest fights in boxing, but boxing is just a mad world where it’s like ‘That’s the one to avoid’.

    “The biggest and most exciting fights come with a lot of risk, so let’s roll the dice and see AJ put it on the line in a massive fight.”
    Joshua, 33, beat Jermaine Franklin, 29, on points at the start of April in his return fight.
    Meanwhile Wilder, 37, is yet to box since knocking out Robert Helenius, 39, in the first round of his comeback last October.
    But the pair could be in line to finally fight with money being fronted to stage it in the Middle East.
    And amazingly, Tyson Fury, 34, could also unify the belts against Oleksandr Usyk, 36, as part of a boxing bonanza in Saudi.

    The Brit has actually racked up a higher number than legendary fighter Mike Tyson.
    But it’s another icon who tops the charts thanks to his money-spinning bouts.
    Boffins at Betsperts have been analysing boxing fights since 2010 – specifically those which generated more than 1million PPV buys.
    And they have now revealed the best-paid bruisers based on how many punches they have landed in that time.
    READ MORE ON BOXING
    There’s no room for current WBC king Tyson Fury, who ranks just 22nd on the list.
    And Jake Paul also doesn’t feature as none of his fights have qualified under the 1m PPV rule.
    As a result, top spot has gone to none other than Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather.
    The legendary unbeaten American has taken on the likes of Manny Pacquiao and Conor McGregor.

    And he’s landed a combined 1,876 punches while pocketing £448.9m in earnings.
    That gives him an amazing £239,358 per punch, sending him clear of second-place McGregor.
    The Irishman’s own total is £225,160, having raked in £24.98m from 111 punches.
    And in third place is Joshua with £208,743.

    Even so, Iron Mike hit his opponent 67 times, amounting to £124,342 per punch after an £8.33m payday.
    The top five is completed by Wladimir Klitschko, younger brother of Vitali, who has £115,215 from 94 punches against AJ at Wembley in 2017.
