      Mayweather, 43 booted Anna, 29, out of their mansion as he went into ‘full fight mode’ for the dust-up at the Hard Rock Stadium.
      But sources say the pair are now set to enjoy a holiday and may even wed by the end of this year.
      A pal said: “Anna was one of the first people Floyd saw after the fight.
      “It’s been several weeks since they were together so they have a lot of catching up to do. 
      “Absence has made the heart grow fonder and they are now looking forward to a long, long holiday where they will continue to plan their nuptials.
      “A lot of people suggested their relationship was on the rocks after he asked Anna to leave his mansion.
      “Nothing could be further from the truth.
      “They are very happy but Floyd was just in full fight mode and wanted to give the bout his total attention.”

      Monroe showed last week what Mayweather is missing after showing off her body on social media.
      Last month, SunSport revealed how Floyd had sent Anna flowers draped in dollar bills – as a peace offering for kicking her out their mansion.
      The 1996 Olympic bronze medallist proposed to Anna – lead dancer at his Las Vegas club Girl Collection – shortly after news of their relationship was revealed by The Sun earlier this year.
      They have been dating for some months and the Brit-American moved into his Vegas compound – which boasts 11 bedrooms, 14 bathrooms and two guest houses.

      Paddy McGuinness and Danny Dyer to remake footie anthem Vindaloo for Euro 2020

      by

      But EastEnders star Danny and Top Gear host Paddy also sing on the unofficial England anthem, originally recorded for the 1998 World Cup.
      A source said: “Danny and Paddy are secret stars of the Vindaloo re-recording.
      “They laid down their lyrics in a studio at the end of last month but their schedules couldn’t allow them to make filming. But it’s obvious who sings what lines in the track and the new version sounds brilliant.”
      Corrie actor Will, Keith Lemon star Leigh, and Happy Mondays’ dancer Bez were seen filming in Hoxton, East London.
      The source went on: “The video for the updated version is very much in line with the original. Everyone involved in the remake thinks it will blow the original out of the water. It’s brilliant fun.”

      Fat Les was formed by Blur bassist Alex James, Lily Allen’s dad Keith, and the artist Damien Hirst.
      They hit No2 with Vindaloo, with the star-packed video also featuring Matt Lucas and David Walliams.
      The Euros start on Friday. England open their campaign against Croatia on the Sunday afternoon, a day after Wales play Switzerland.

      My dad Muhammad Ali loved watching himself on TV…’weren’t I something’, he’d say to us

      by

      MUHAMMAD ALI spent his final days watching documentaries about his stellar boxing career, according to his daughter Hana.The boxing legend, born Cassius Clay Jr, died aged 74 in June 2016, 32 years after he went public with his Parkinson’s disease diagnosis.

      Speaking about her father five years on from his death, Hana, 44, told The Sun: “He loved watching himself on TV. ‘Weren’t I something’, he would say to us, his children.
      “He would watch Elvis films on TV, and documentaries about James Brown and Little Richard, but mainly about himself, especially at the age he had Parkinson’s.
      “You could see that light in his eyes. That spark. His eyes were dancing although his body wasn’t. He would look around the room smiling, it was so funny. No matter how bad his position was, he didn’t complain.
      “He never questioned his illness, he never asked, ‘Why me?’
      “He never felt sorry for himself, he felt a blessing in everything and said having Parkinson’s helps other people that are scared and frightened who are hiding away in their homes.
      “Even in his illness he inspired people, his journey on this earth.
      “He found a way to keep on going and life was all the blessings he had.”
      She reveals he would beam at the TV and say ‘weren’t I something’Credit: Getty
      During his 21-year career, Ali, who was married four times and had seven children, became known as the best boxer of all time – with 56 wins, including 37 knockouts.
      ‘OUR FUN-FILLED HOME’
      He retired in 1981 following a final fight against Trevor Berbick in the Bahamas, where he lost on points.
      Three years later in 1984, Ali revealed he had been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
      Hana, whose mother was Ali’s third wife, Veronica Porché, said life at home with Ali was always filled with fun and that it was totally normal to have major celebrities dropping by for dinner.
      Hana added: “Clint Eastwood was around a lot, Stevie Wonder, Cary Grant.
      “Michael Jackson visited a few times. Prince would come later in the Nineties and we had dinner with Madonna a few times.
      “Over the years, so many celebrities that you’ve heard of tried to meet my father and have been to our home. The list is endless. Everyone was a fan of my dad’s.”

      Another close pal of Ali’s was Sylvester Stallone, 74, and Hana revealed the actor even filmed scenes for Rocky III at his home in LA.
      Hana said: “I remember watching Stallone filming for Rocky III. They filmed different scenes. One was in my parents’ bedroom, one was on the patio, on the southern side.
      “We had beautiful furniture – they used all our original furnishings in the scenes. They didn’t change it, they didn’t bring in any props.
      Over the years, so many celebrities that you’ve heard of tried to meet my father and have been to our home. The list is endless. Hana
      “The house was set up for the scenes as we lived in it.
      “My dad was always entertaining the crew – he loved doing his magic tricks for them and they would laugh out loud. And my father would try to sit them down, to take a break so he could feed them.
      “My dad and Stallone would have fun during breaks. He was like a big kid, he enjoyed being Muhammad Ali.”
      Despite the A-listers that came through the door of their home, Hana said she and her father connected the most with Buddhist spiritual leader the Dalai Lama, 85.

      Recalling their meeting, Hana explained: “My dad and I hung out with the Dalai Lama in 2004. He was the only person I felt was a spiritual being like my dad.
      “That was the only person I can say I was kind of excited about – not like the celebrities over the years who are admired for other reasons.
      “Just because you make music or people know your name or you are famous – I wasn’t impressed by this because, as I was growing up, my father told me what was important and what wasn’t important in life.”
      ‘I FEEL HE’S STILL HERE’
      Although it has been five years since Ali died of Parkinson’s-related complications, Hana said she feels her father’s presence to this day.
      Multiple films and books have been dedicated to him, and Hana said these help keep his memory alive.
      She said: “It’s like he’s here. Everywhere I turn there’s a poster of daddy, or he’s on TV. His energy is everywhere. I talk to his photo and say, ‘Daddy I love you! When it’s my time, I hope I can see you – come and get me’.
      “He brought all his kids together from all the marriages and made sure we knew each other. This was a beautiful gift he gave us. Now we’re all good friends.

      “Our father gave us so much joy. I feel he’s still here and still not gone.
      “I knew from an early age he wasn’t just my dad, but we had to share him with the world. I’m OK with that.
      “I stopped fearing death when he went to the other side.”

      Harry Maguire almost certain to miss England’s Euro 2020 opener as Gareth Southgate gambles picking FOUR crocked stars

      HARRY MAGUIRE revealed he has only just started light training in his race to be fit for the Euros.The Manchester United captain looks certain to miss England’s June 13 opener against Croatia and is a doubt for the other group games.

      Boss Gareth Southgate also confirmed Jordan Henderson is not fully fit, while Jack Grealish and Marcus Rashford are dealing with niggles.
      However, Southgate took a big gamble by naming all four in his final 26-man squad.
      Maguire, who damaged ankle ligaments against Aston Villa last month, said: “I have done little bits of running.
      “I don’t want to aggravate it too early as we still have nearly two weeks until the first game and it is a long tournament.

      “I am taking it day by day. I have not asked for a time-frame but I am looking forward to being involved.
      “It can improve dramatically in a few days and you can have little setbacks.”
      Maguire, 28, missed United’s Europa League final defeat to Villarreal in Poland a week ago, although he will report for England duty in Middlesbrough after his quarantine spell.
      Southgate, preparing for Wednesday’s friendly with Austria, stressed that Liverpool captain Henderson, sidelined since February after groin surgery, is not 100 per cent but may play some minutes at the Riverside.

      The England boss said: “Both of the players are not where you would want them to be in terms of being available for the game against Croatia.
      “With Jordan and Harry, we selected a squad that, if they don’t get there, we are not in a situation where we haven’t got cover.
      “The most important thing is we don’t push them beyond the point they are ready for — that would be stupid, negligent.
      “We have had to modify Jordan through certain parts of the session. He will be involved in the game.”
      However, Grealish is struggling with a shin problem and Rashford has foot and shoulder issues.
      Southgate added: “Jack hasn’t been able to train every day and we have to manage his load.
      “Marcus we haven’t seen on the grass but he assures me he is happy with where he is at.”

      Everton going head-to-head with Crystal Palace for Nuno Espirito Santo after Carlo Ancelotti’s shock Real Madrid switch

      by

      EVERTON are battling Crystal Palace for Nuno Espirito Santo to take over from Carlo Ancelotti.Goodison supremo Farhad Moshiri is seeking his SIXTH boss in five years after Ancelotti rejoined Real Madrid on Tuesday.

      Moshiri has put ex-Wolves coach Nuno top of a hitlist that includes Eddie Howe and Rafa Benitez.
      And Nuno’s fellow Portuguese Vitor Pereira – who has spent the last three years with Chinese Super League side Shanghai SIPG – also fancies the job.
      Ancelotti, who guided the Toffees to tenth this season, said: “I’d like to thank the board, players and Evertonians for the tremendous support they have given me.
      “I hope Everton can achieve the exciting opportunities they have in front of them.
      “While I have enjoyed being at Everton, I have been presented with an unexpected opportunity which is the right move for me and my family.”
      Palace have been in talks with Nuno for the past few days and he is their top choice to replace retiring Roy Hodgson.
      But the Toffees’ bigger budget and ambitions might sway Nuno.
      One stumbling block will be Duncan Ferguson’s role in the new Everton coaching team as Nuno may want his own staff.

      Ferguson was being considered for the post but Nuno’s experience makes him favourite.
      Ancelotti had three years left on an £11million-a-year deal and Everton will get at least £30m in compensation.
      He takes over from Zinedine Zidane, six years after being axed by Real despite winning the Champions League.

      England’s Euro 2020 squad will be offered therapy developed for soldiers with PTSD

      The FA has booked all 61 bedrooms at the five-star resort, which is nestled in 375 acres of quiet countryside.
      The squad will be able to enjoy some rest and relaxation in the hotel’s 50,000sq ft spa facility, which is among the largest in the country
      And stars including Marcus Rashford, Harry Kane and Phil Foden will also be able to use a “Mind Therapy Room” to get them into the right frame of mind ahead of the team’s first group stage game against Croatia on June 13.
      The stars will lie on a vibrating dentist’s chair-style sound wave bed which was invented by American scientists to help war veterans suffering with PTSD.
      Players will be invited to put headphones on and a face mask placed over their eyes before soft music is played to them, along with a series of beeps.
      The 30-minute treatment is said to help move brainwaves from the alpha state, which is a state of relaxation, to the slower delta waves, which we experience when we are asleep.
      A source said: “The players have had a long, hard season and have very little time off. So it’s only right that they get to spend some downtime in a beautiful hotel.
      “The spa is huge and regarded as one of the best in the country and the golf course is top notch too.
      “Some of the players could benefit from some mind therapy treatments to help clear their minds and relax them and help them sleep properly so their bodies can mend.”
      Earlier this week England boss Gareth Southgate revealed that Wags and families will be banned from the team hotel for the duration of the tournament, which starts on June 11.
      He said: “We’re not going to be able to let people in. There’s a clear edict from Uefa on what the bubbles need to look like to be as secure as we can make them.
      “It’s never going to be 100 per cent fail safe but we’ve got to comply with as much as we can.

      “We’re hoping that we might at some point be able to let the players have a little bit of time at home.
      “But that’s constantly being assessed. It’d be a preference for us if we can.”England begin their Euro 2020 campaign underway against Croatia on June 13 at Wembley.

      Cops and loan club West Ham have no idea how a thief brazenly sneaked into the heavily-guarded dressing room during a game.
      Players and staff searched the room to no avail on May 9 before the star contacted police.
      Rooms at the London Stadium are only accessible to players and senior officials.
      They are monitored by CCTV and patrolled by security.
      ‘HE’S DEVASTATED’
      Midfielder Lingard, on loan from Manchester United, has a collection of high-end watches, some thought to be worth six figures. One is specially designed by Swiss maker Richard Mille.
      A source said: “Jesse was devastated, but nobody can believe it.
      “It’s completely unheard of for something to be stolen from inside the players’ dressing rooms during a game.
      Rooms at the London stadium are only accessible to players and senior officialsCredit: PA:Press Association
      The ‘brazen’ theft took place during West Ham’s Premier League clash against EvertonCredit: Rex
      “Security at the stadium is top class. There are staff guarding the tunnel and all those areas — as well as CCTV all over the place.
      “Of course everyone has searched high and low but it appears it has definitely been taken, and there was no option but to call in the police.
      “Everyone is gutted for him, he loved that watch and thought it would be safe.
      “It goes without saying Premier League footballers are well paid, and many of them have expensive items including clothing and ­jewellery.
      “But it would just never occur to anyone that it could be taken from there. It’s a real shock.”
      The raid is the latest in a spate of crimes targeting footballers’ prized possessions, but the first to take place in such a bold and shameless way.

      Shaken stars
      BALACLAVA-clad burglars broke into Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti’s home and stole a safe containing valuables in February.
      The Italian, 61, was not at home and it was reported his daughter Katia may have scared off the intruders.
      In March club goalkeeper Robin Olsen, 31, was targeted by a machete gang who took gems and a watch from his house near Altrincham.
      Coleen Rooney has spoken of her sleepless nights after ex-serviceman Robert McNamara was jailed for breaking into her family’s Cheshire home. Her husband, England ace Wayne, had been playing in his testimonial.
      Last week we told how pregnant Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock, engaged to Watford footballer Andre Gray, had her £40,000 ring stolen from their £4.5million Surrey mansion.

      In 2016 then-West Ham striker Andy Carroll was targeted for his £22,000 watch.
      The striker was driving home from the club’s training ground when he was confronted by a motorbike rider at traffic lights.
      Robber Jack O’Brien was later jailed for six years, with Carroll saying he believed he may have had a gun.
      It would just never occur to anyone that it could be taken from there. It’s a real shock.Source
      The footballer told jurors he was scared when the motorcycle rider pulled up beside him, said “nice watch” then demanded he gave it to him.
      Carroll did a U-turn, but was forced to drive on the wrong side of the road as he was pursued back to West Ham’s training ground.
      In a 999 call played in court he was heard telling responders: “There’s two motorbikes, one’s behind me pulling out a gun.”
      Two years ago moped thugs targeted former Arsenal players Mezut Ozil and Sead Kolašinac for their £200,000 watches in North London.

      Bosnian defender Kolašinac chased the knife-wielding attackers who were part of a gang that were later jailed for ten years. Last May armed raiders made off with watches worth £350,000 from the home of Lingard’s England teammate Dele Alli.
      Man City winger Riyad Mahrez had a £230,000 Richard Mille timepiece, a £40,000 Rolex Daytona and a £35,000 Rolex Day Date nicked from his Manchester penthouse.
      Liverpool stars Sadio Mane, Roberto Firminho and club legend Steve Gerrard have all been targeted when thieves knew they would be involved in major matches so would not be at home.
      Gerrard’s wife Alex was left terrified when thugs threatened to abduct their children if she did not co-operate.
      He was away leading his side in the Champions League. The Lingard raid, in the supposed sanctuary of a dressing room, is sure to shock the footballing world.
      A West Ham United spokesperson said: “The incident happened a month ago and the Club took all appropriate steps at the time.

      “While we will continue to assist with the matter, we are unable to comment further as this is now part of an ongoing police investigation.”
      The Met Police confirmed to The Sun: “Police are investigating a burglary at the London Stadium. It was reported that a watch was stolen from a changing room on the afternoon or evening of Sunday May 9.”
      A spokesman for Jesse added: “We can’t comment on an ongoing investigation.” More
