      Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte: Date, UK start time, live stream and TV channel as WBC heavyweight title bout is CONFIRMED

      by

      AFTER months of back and forth negotiations, Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte has now been CONFIRMED.Fury is the reigning WBC heavyweight champion after back-to-back victories over Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas.

      The Gypsy King retained his crown by emphatic knockout back in October last year, with unification against then-champ Anthony Joshua eyed up.
      AJ was to ultimately lose his own title defence to Oleksandr Usyk and a rematch has been delayed by Usyk’s decision to fight for Ukraine against Russia.
      Fury’s attention has therefore turned to mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte as he puts his belt on the line once again.

      Fury said as the fight was announced: “I’m coming home baby. Get ready for the biggest British dust-up since Lennox Lewis vs Frank Bruno. History in the making.”

      And it was confirmed that Whyte had signed his side of the deal in the early hours of this morning.
      Whyte will earn around £6million for his participation, with Fury set to bank a much meatier £23.5m.

      When is Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte?

      Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte will take place on Saturday, April 23.
      Fury hasn’t fought in the UK since 2018 when he faced Sefer Seferi in Manchester and then Francesco Pianeta in Belfast.
      The start time has been CONFIRMED as 10pm UK time – 5pm ET.

      What is the fight venue?

      The fight is expected to be a 90,000-capacity sell-out event.

      Which TV channel and live stream will it be on?
      BT Sport Box Office has been CONFIRMED as broadcaster for the fight.
      BT wrote in a tweet to confirm the news: “The time for talking is over! After years of back and forth, the heavyweight showdown is on!

      What they said
      Tyson Fury has suggested he will retire after his fight with Dillian Whyte, rather than facing the likes of Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usky.
      The Gypsy King said: “The only thing I can gain is money. So after this fight I’ll have earned over £100million.
      “If I can spend that, I don’t deserve any more, do I?
      “I know Mike Tyson spent half a billion and Evander Holyfield 400million and all the rest, but I don’t live their big flash lifestyles.
      “I live in Morecambe, in Lancashire. It’s cheap there. I don’t have any big habits like I’m gambling tons of money away.
      “I don’t do anything. I can never spend the money I’ve got.”
      Whyte has previously said: “Wherever they want the fight, whenever they want the fight, I don’t care.
      “I’ve been trying to fight him for a long time. I’ve been ready to fight him for a long time.
      “I just want to fight him for the world title now.” More

      Real Madrid vs PSG: TV channel, live stream, kick-off time and team news for HUGE Champions League clash

      by

      REAL MADRID are hoping to overcome a one goal deficit when they welcome Paris Saint-Germain to the Bernabeu THIS WEEK.A stoppage time Kylian Mbappe strike denied the 12x Champions League winners from returning home with a clean sheet.

      And now, Madrid will need to exert more pressure on the PSG back-line having played so cautiously in the first leg.
      However, Carlo Ancelotti’s side haven’t lost a game in La Liga since January 2.
      Also, Real Madrid won’t have the away goals rule to worry about so they’ll be expected to go all-out attack.
      What time does Real Madrid vs PSG kick off?

      What TV channel is Real Madrid vs PSG on and can I live stream it?

      Real Madrid vs PSG is live on BT Sport 3 and BT Sport 3 HD.
      The coverage commences from 7:15pm UK time – 45 minutes before kick-off.
      Subscription members can also stream the game live via the BT Sport website or app.

      Team news
      Los Blancos will be without Ferland Mendy and Casemiro who are both serving suspensions as a result of accumulating too many bookings in the earlier rounds.
      However, experienced midfielder Toni Kroos and his protege Federico Valverde could be in contention to start despite both missing the weekend win over Real Sociedad.
      Sergio Ramos is pushing for a return to action against the side who he won 22 trophies with.
      But the Spaniard’s persistent calf injury which has kept him out for most of the season, keep him at a huge doubt to feature.
      And former Manchester United star Ander Herrera is also likely to miss the trip having sustained an eye infection.

      Sadio Mane’s winning goal helped temporarily close the gap on league leader Man CityCredit: PA
      Also, confidence will be brewing as Jurgen Klopp’s men are going into this fixture off the back of a marginal 1-0 triumph over West Ham in the league.
      However, Inter recently ran riot in Serie A – putting FIVE past their opponents Salernitana.
      And with the away goals rule scrapped, Simone inzaghi’s side are still very much in this tie.
      What time does Liverpool vs Inter Milan kick off?

      Liverpool take on Inter Milan TOMORROW – Tuesday 8, March.
      The match kicks off at 8:00pm UK time.
      It takes place at Anfield in Liverpool.

      What TV channel is Liverpool vs Inter Milan on and can I live stream it?

      Liverpool vs Inter Milan is live on BT Sport 2 and BT Sport 2 HD.
      The coverage commences at 7:00pm UK time – one hour before kick-off.
      Subscription members can also stream the game live via the BT Sport website or app.

      Team news
      Roberto Firmino and Thiago Alacantara both missed the narrow 1-0 victory over West Ham, however, Klopp confirmed that the Liverpool duo trained yesterday so he’ll wait to see how they react.
      Joel Matip was also unavailable for selection on the weekend due to an illness, but the defender is expected to feature in tomorrow’s Champions League clash.
      As for Diogo Jota, the Portuguese star managed to clock up some minutes against the Hammers so he’ll be fit and raring to go.
      Ivan Perisic is a minor doubt having missed Inter Milan’s 5-0 thrashing over Salernitana with a muscle injury.
      But the Croatian wing-back has reportedly returned to training so he is expected to get game time at some point in the second leg.
      Latest odds
      Liverpool to qualify – 11/20

      But he would probably have had more goals if he had been fit all season.
      The Nigerian missed nine games at the end of 2021 due to a nasty injury.
      Why does Victor Osimhen wear a mask?
      Osimhen, 23, fractured his eye socket during Napoli’s 3-2 defeat at Inter Milan on November 24.
      That was one of many facial fractures he suffered after a clash of heads with Milan Skriniar at the San Siro.
      He had 18 metal screws and six plaques inserted to stabilise his facial features following the horror injury.

      Who is Mushin Bayrak? Meet the Turkish billionaire who wants to buy Chelsea

      by

      CHELSEA are still looking for a new buyer after Roman Abramovich put the club up for sale earlier this week. An American-Swiss partnership between Tedd Boehly and Hansjorg Wyss has been touted, but Abramovich has a new bidder to entertain.

      Turkish billionaire Mushin Bayrak has said that he is in talks to buy the Blues, with negotiations well underway.
      He told Turkish outlet Yeni Safak: “We are negotiating the terms of the purchase of Chelsea with Roman Abramovich’s lawyers.
      “We are in the negotiation phase for the signatures. We will fly the Turkish flag in London soon.
      “We made our offer. Because of the war with Russia and Ukraine in the world. Because they find Turkey safe, they want to get most of the after-sales money in Turkey. We are planning to sign soon.”
      So with all that in mind, just who is the Turkish tycoon?
      Who is Mushin Bayrak?
      Bayrak is a billionaire who made his money as Chairman of his own company AB Group Holding, which has invested in tourism, cryptocurrency and construction.
      Her’s also the leader of the Kurdish Mtiki Tribe of Bitlis, and has links with Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party.
      AB Group was founded in 1999 and though originally based in Istanbul, they now also operate in Italy, Spain and Greece.

      Bayrak is also said to have some investments in London, with his net worth totalling up to £8billion.
      A potential sale to Bayrak would leave Boehly, who made a bid to buy Chelsea in 2019, and Swissman Wyss, in the lurch.
      Boehly owns baseball team the LA Dodgers while Wyss founded medical device manufacturer Synthes Holding AG.
      But Bayrak looks set to usurp both men, with the Turk hoping to wrap up the lucrative deal next week.
      It’s been reported that Abramovich flew to Turkey on a private plane earlier this week to meet with Bayrak, who appears genuine in his interest of Chelsea. More

      Deji has said: “I’m going to be fighting main event on the Showstar UK vs USA event at the Wembley SSE Arena.

      “I want to see all my fans there.”
      Alex Wassabi replied: “That’s his mindset, it’s all mental with him and it’s hard to talk about because I want this to be a good fight.
      “I would rather win a decision than win by first round knockout because I want it to be an epic battle – this is my first fight!” More
