      by

      SIR JIM RATCLIFFE is the chemical engineer and industry tycoon who has purchased a 25% stake in Manchester United.Ratcliffe, who is one of the UK’s richest men, is a huge football fan and his deal for United has finally been announced.
      Ineos CEO Jim Ratcliffe has bought a stake in Man Utd
      Who is Jim Ratcliffe and what is his net worth?
      Jim Ratcliffe is a fracking and chemicals entrepreneur who is the chairman and CEO of chemicals group Ineos.
      The Brexit-backing businessman came from humble beginnings and was brought up in a council house near Manchester by his joiner dad and office manager mum.
      He was born on October 18, 1952, as James Arthur Ratcliffe.
      Ratcliffe’s first job was with oil giant Esso but he later went on to study for an MBA from London Business School and, in 1989, he joined US private equity group Advent International.
      In May 2023 Ratcliffe surged to second in the Sunday Times Rich List with a reported net worth of £29billion.
      When did he start Ineos?
      Ratcliffe is the chairman and chief executive of the Ineos chemicals group, which he founded in 1998 from a small base in Hampshire.
      Using high-yield debt to fund deals, he started buying unwanted operations from groups such as energy giant BP, picking targets based on their potential to double their earnings over a five year period.
      In 2006, Ineos bought BP’s refining and petrochemical arm Innovene, giving Ineos refineries and plants in Scotland, Italy, Germany, France, Belgium and Canada.
      Then, in April 2010, Ratcliffe relocated Ineos’ head office to Rolle in Switzerland, cutting the company’s tax bill by £100million per year.
      Ineos products are used every day to clean water, make toothpaste, manufacture antibiotics, insulate homes and package food.
      The chemicals giant employs more than 18,500 people at 181 sites across 22 countries.
      When was Jim Ratcliffe knighted?
      Ratcliffe was knighted in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list on June 2, 2018, receiving the honour for services to business and investment.
      Other big names on the honours list that year included Kenny Dalglish and Emma Thompson.
      What sports teams does Jim Ratcliffe own and does he support Manchester United?
      Boyhood Manchester United fan Ratcliffe revealed his interest in buying the Old Trafford club in January 2023 after the Red Devils were put up for sale by the US-based Glazer family.
      Qatar’s Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani was thought to have put in a £5billion bid for the team –  short of the Glazers’ £6billion valuation of the club.
      In 2022 Sir Jim tried to buy United’s Premier League rivals Chelsea after Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich was forced to sell the West London club as part of sanctions imposed following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
      US investor Todd Boehly and his consortium took control of the Blues after Ratcliffe’s bid was rejected.
      Ineos already own French football club Nice, as well as Swiss side Lausanne and a third of F1 motor racing team Mercedes.
      His Team Ineos cycling team has won seven editions of the annual Tour de France, boasting riders such as Sir Bradley Wiggins, Chris Froome and Geraint Thomas.
      MORE ON FAMOUS FACES’ NET WORTHS
      Does he have children?
      Ratcliffe has two sons, called George and Samuel, with his first wife Amanda Townson, who he split from in 1995 after a ten-year marriage.
      He went on to welcome a daughter, Julia, with his second wife, Italian tax lawyer Maria Alessia Maresca – also known as Alicia Ratcliffe.
      Ratcliffe reportedly wed Alicia in the late 1990s, before splitting up a few years later.
      In 2020 Ratcliffe moved to tax haven Monaco, leaving behind his properties in Chelsea and Hampshire. More

      Jarrell Miller’s net worth, career earnings and boxing record explained

      by

      JARRELL MILLER’S boxing career has been marred by scandal.Here’s what we know about the controversial US heavyweight’s career so far — and his net worth.
      Jarrell Miller will face Daniel Dubois in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on December 23, 2023.
      What is Jarrell Miller’s net worth? 
      Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller’s net worth is estimated at between $5 million – $110 million.
      Born in Brooklyn, New York, the 6’4” heavyweight started boxing at 16 years old and made his professional debut in 2009, when he was 21. 
      Since then, he has earned a lot of money from boxing, and various sponsorship deals. 
      But Miller has lost out on significant earnings since failing multiple drug tests. 
      Read more on boxing
      Miller was up against Anthony Joshua in June 2019, but the Madison Square Gardens fight was called off at the eleventh hour after the “Big Baby” failed multiple drug tests.
      His purse was said to have been around $4.8m (£3.6m), and even more if he were to win and secure a rematch — but Miller has said he lost out of up to £24 million. 
      Miller said: “The first fight was 7.5 m’s and the rematch if I knocked him out was a minimum of 15 to 20 so at least 30 mill by the end of the year.
      “I’m from Brooklyn, do you know how many cheeseburgers that was just now I could’ve bought?
      Most read in Boxing
      “But like I said, I never got into sport because of money and I feel if I do it in the right way this time I’ll be back there.”
      At the time, Miller blamed the tests on a tainted supplement and stem cell shots in his elbow — but a second failed drugs test was blamed on a sex pill. 
      The former kickboxer was then handed a two-year ban, which he served before his licence was reinstated in 2022. 
      What is Jarrell Miller’s boxing record?
      The US boxer’s record stands at 26–0–1, with 22 wins by knockout. 
      As a kickboxer, his record was 22–2. 
      After his called-off fight with AJ, and subsequent drug test failure, there were calls from boxing figureheads for a lifetime ban.
      But Miller has won all three fights he’s played since getting back in the ring, including a showdown with Lucas Browne in Dubai in 2023. 
      After the fight, Miller called out bitter his rival AJ, and Daniel Dubois.
      Big Baby Miller is up against Dubois in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday 23 December, on a mega-card which will also see headliner AJ facing Otto Wallin.
      After a heated confrontation between the rivals in which Miller called AJ a “p***y”, the British champion told SunSport:
      “I have to just let him know he is not even in my sights. He is beneath me.
      “In reality, I was thinking, ‘Why do I even address that clown? He is beneath me’.
      Read more on The Sun
      “I have bigger and better things to focus on. He is a clown.
      “I am fully focused on Otto Wallin, after this week I will tell you everything but right now Wallin is the only focus.” More

      Who is Mike Brewer?
      Mark Brewer is a British television presenter and car enthusiast. 
      He was born in Lambeth, London, on August 28, 1964.
      Brewer is best known as the host of Wheeler Dealers, the Discovery Channel’s car programme, which he has presented since 2003. 
      The premise of the show is that Brewer and the other presenters have a mission to save old vehicles, fix up old cars on a budget, and sell them to a new owner.
      Read more on television
      Brewer’s co-presenter has changed over the years: Edd China was his first co-host, followed by Ant Anstead, and most recently, Marc “Elvis” Priestley. 
      But Brewer is not only a presenter — alongside his television work, he is still active in the motor industry, and opened Mike Brewer Motors in 2012, a dealership in Sheffield. 
      He also launched the annual Used Car Award for used car dealers in the UK, a black-tie event in London. 
      What is Mike Brewer’s net worth?
      Brewer has an estimated net worth between $1.5 million and $4 million (£1.2 million to £3.2 million), owing to his long presenting career, and other business ventures. 
      Most read in Motorsport
      Some sources also indicate that his annual salary is $250,000. 
      Despite his motor industry fame, Brewer is famously down-to-earth.
      Is Mike Brewer married?
      Brewer is married to Michelle Brewer, whom he married in 1992.
      Michelle was born on June 9, 1962. 
      The pair are thought to live in Warwickshire and have one daughter together. 
      In a 2023 interview, Brewer opened up about the impact his career has had on his marriage, saying: “I’ve literally dedicated my life – 26 years actually – dedicated to this craft.
      “And I feel like it’s given me an amazing life but it’s also come at the cost of my marriage.”
      “But there comes a time when I look and I think, maybe I should spend more time with my wife? She drives me mad but I love being with her,” he added.
      Brewer often posts photos of Michelle with his Twitter followers, with captions such as: 
      “Happy Birthday to my beautiful wife  .. life with Michelle is wonderful, I’m so lucky. I love you tons”.
      Michelle, meanwhile, posts on Twitter under the username @MrsMBrewer. 
      In her Twitter bio, she describes herself as “The driving force behind #WheelerDealer”, so it appears the pair work as a team, and Michelle has a lot of involvement in the car industry. 
      What other shows has Mike Brewer presented?
      Brewer started his television career in 1997, on Channel 4’s Deals on Wheels, and ITV’s Pulling Power. 
      In 1999, he presented Driven on Channel 4 for one year. 
      Then in 2003, Wheeler Dealers started, on the Discovery Channel, which Brewer has presented ever since. 
      In 2009, Brewer presented another show on the Discovery Channel — Auto Trader.
      Since 2020, Brewer has also hosted the Wheeler Dealers spin-off show on the Discovery Channel, Wheeler Dealers: Dream Car. 
      For the Discovery Channel, Brewer has also presented Deals on Wheels, Wrecks to Riches, and Frontline Battle Machines.
      In 2020, Brewer took a turn co-hosting a show called The World’s Greatest Cars, on Quest. 
      Alongside television presenting, Brewer launched the Wheeler Dealer Podcast in February 2023, which has so far run for two series. 
      What cars has Mike Brewer owned?
      It comes as no surprise that Brewer has a significant collection of classic cars. 
      Brewer’s first car was a beige Mini 850cc, but he has driven a wide range of cars in the interim period. 
      In 2021, Brewer announced that despite ridiculing electric cars, he’d taken the plunge and bought himself a Porsche Taycan. 
      That same year, Brewer decided to auction off a selection of his own cars, many of which he’s restored and maintained himself, at the Silverstone Auctions at NEC Classic Motor Show.
      In the lot were a 1972 Citroen SM 2.7 four-seat coupé, a 1967 Mini Cooper 1275 S, a 1961 Austin Seven Mini 1961, a 1966 Ford Cortina Lotus Mk1, and a 2002 Ferrari 360 Spider F1.
      Despite his love for his collection of cars, Brewer’s schedule didn’t allow him the time to drive and car for all of them. 
      Brewer has previously said he believes classic cars “are there to be driven. I know that first hand because I’ve got a collection.”
      He said: “Buy something you love, buy something you’re interested in because when you love the car you’re much more likely to be willing to spend time on it, to look after it, to drive it.”
      Brewer also revealed that his Ford Fiesta Mk1 was stolen in June 2023, a car that had been restored by Brewer and Priestly to mark the 20th anniversary of Wheeler Dealers.
      Despite offering a £5000 reward for the card, as of November 2023, it has not been recovered. More
