    Tyson Fury sends Oleksandr Usyk ‘take-it-or-leave it’ ultimatum on Instagram as undisputed fight hangs in balance

    TYSON FURY has confirmed he wants a greedy 70 per cent of the purse for an undisputed decider with Oleksandr Usyk.And the ruthless WBC Gypsy King will slash at his meagre 30 per cent cut every day until he caves.

    The 34-year-old Brit – who claims he has more money than he could spend in 50 lifetimes and would have boxed Anthony Joshua for free – turned down a 50-50 split for a showdown in Saudi Arabia.
    Usyk – the 36-year-old WBA, IBF and WBO champ who just did the double over AJ – signed up for the Riyadh row only for Fury to welch when he was told it was an even split.
    Morecambe’s monster has dragged the bout to Wembley stadium on April 29, on the proviso he gets the lion’s share of the mega-money deal that would sell out the 94,000 seater.
    But proud Usyk – a London 2012 gold winner and undisputed cruiserweight champ – is so far refusing to be financially bullied by the 6ft 9in showman.

    So Fury is trying even harder to underpay the Ukraine icon – who has spent time on his nation’s front line.
    While walking around a shopping centre he growled on Instagram: “I see all this talk of boxing fights and ‘Usyk wants 50 per cent’ and  ‘Tyson is being greedy’.
    “But – where I am standing – Usyk and his team are only worth 30 per cent.
    “You either take it or you leave it.”

    Fury did incredible business in his last two bouts, convincing a combined total of 154,000 people to buy tickets to see him dominate Dillian Whyte at Wembley and then Derek Chisora at a freezing Tottenham stadium in December.
    So he feels like he should be able to call the shots on how the huge pot – made up of ticket and pay-per-view sales – will be carved up.
    He also shrewdly knows his Queensberry stablemate Daniel Dubois is the mandatory challenger for Usyk’s WBA belt.
    And the sanctioning body will order that fight soon, if the four-belt super-fight is not secured, while he is relaxed with no nominated contender for his green and gold single belt.
    “If you don’t want it, go and fight Daniel Dubois at the Copper Box and gert a few million dollars,” he added.
    “You want to make some real money, come and fight the Gypsy King.
    “I will say, for every day from today that you linger, mess around, I will deduct one per cent from the 30 per cent.
    “So every day I will deduct one per cent, until you take it. And if you don’t take it then fight Dubois for two million dollars, not a problem.
    “But how in the world could you ever offer me a deal? Not possible.  Tick tock, tick tock, p*****s.”

    I’m a former Premier League star but now I’m a Instagram chef… an online course sparked my success

    A FORMER Premier League star who scored in all five national football divisions has gone on to become an Instagram chef.Marc Pugh, 35, was a winger for Bournemouth and QPR before an online nutrition course inspired him to start a new career in the kitchen.

    After scoffing heaps of pizza as a young player, Marc now serves up austere dishes on his chopping boardCredit: https://www.instagram.com/thefoodiefootballer/?hl=en
    He has attracted 85,000 Instagram followers with his snaps of healthy dishes like coconut and almond milk porridge and cucumber, radish and salmon towers.
    The ex-footballer told the Sun: “Ten years ago, I was a terrible cook. I wish I had educated myself more when I was younger.
    “I used to have pizza as a pre-match meal when I was at Shrewsbury as a 21-year-old.
    “We kept winning games so we thought it was a good omen!

    “Before I did my course I didn’t know how important nutrition was.
    “Now I take it very seriously, both for myself and for my family.
    Most read in The Sun
    “As a professional it has helped with recovery particularly.
    “During this lockdown, when we have all the time in the world, what better way to spend it than learning to cook! It could improve your game and your fitness.”
    Marc took the online course so he could help out his heavily pregnant wife with cooking.
    It inspired him to eat more healthily, with cheesy-crust pizzas strictly off the menu.
    He said: “I feel better now than when I was 21. Back then I made mistakes going into games and felt lethargic because of what I’d eaten.
    “When I was at Bury, we played Weymouth in the FA Cup and I felt horrendous.
    “I actually scored but I felt awful. The pre-match meal was pasta and it bloated me. I never do that now.
    “To this day, my pre-match meal is salmon, vegetables and sweet potatoes about 3½ hours before kick-off.”
    Marc’s Insta page is directed at anyone, not just professional athletes, who wants to eat good food but stay in tip-top shape.
    That does not mean it is all kale and quinoa though — even if he is partial to the latter.
    He said: “My Instagram page is to show people they don’t have to eat like a rabbit to be fit and healthy.
    “Refined carbs give you sugar spikes so I don’t use many of those. Good carbs like quinoa, sweet potato, brown rice and vegetables are amazing for you.
    “I do have a bit of a sweet tooth but mostly I use natural sweeteners like dates and honey.
    “There are some scones with jam and cream on there because my missus did it for our kids.
    Marc added: “I don’t like to call it a ‘diet’. But portion sizes are important.
    “Some people look like they could climb their mountain of food rather than eat it.
    “I like to get a lot of colour on the plate. And it is good to keep your metabolism guessing, so sometimes I skip breakfast and have more of a brunch instead.”

    “So I just want to clarify the video that is doing the rounds.

    Defeat to the Reds ended a four-game win streak for the Red Devils and dented their faint hopes of winning the title.
    Manager Erik ten Hag was furious with his troops’ display, saying: “It is quite obvious, it was unprofessional.
    “First half, I think we were the better team – we created the better chances and had two one-on-ones with the goalie.
    “Before half-time, we made one organisational mistake and conceded a goal.
    “We were in the game. It really surprised me after half-time, we gave the game [away] so quickly.
    “The first two goals were defensive transition moments, the first was a turnover and the second was a counter, bad decisions and decisions on the ball.
    “How we conceded the goals is really annoying. The third was a counter with unprofessional decisions – not following in, and then running in, moving forwards, giving space away in midfield, not tracking back.
    “So then it is 3-0 and the game is lost, but as a team you have to stick together.
    “That is what we didn’t do. It is a surprise for me, I didn’t see this from my team.

    The Red Devils have been keeping tabs on De Jong since the summer when the midfielder’s former Ajax manager Erik ten Hag took over.
    Ten Hag wanted to build his midfield around his fellow Dutchman but the 25-year-old opted to stay at Barca and the Manchester giants turned to Casemiro.
    But United are still monitoring De Jong ahead of the summer transfer window and want to pair him up with the Real Madrid legend, who has stood out in the middle of the park.
    Recent reports suggested the Netherlands international is keen to reunite with Ten Hag and partner up with former rival Casemiro.

    However, those claims have just been denied with recent updates suggesting De Jong still prefers to stay at Barcelona.
    This poses as a fresh blow to United, who are still licking their wounds after their Liverpool thrashing.
    And some fans decided to pour some more salt on Twitter after hearing that De Jong’s situation remains unchanged.

    A preliminary investigation was opened last week after a woman accused the footie star of rape.
    The woman alleged the 24-year-old assaulted her after inviting her to his home while his wife Hiba Abouk was on holiday with their kids.
    Hakimi was questioned by prosecutors on Thursday and denied wrongdoing.
    The footballer’s lawyer, Fanny Colin, later released a statement noting that Hakimi “strongly denies” the allegations and alleging that he is a victim of attempted racketeering, ESPN reports.
