    He came out on the wrong end of a majority-decision despite Fury having a point taken for punches to the back of the head.
    Still his aggression and work rate saw him scrape a win – leaving KSI in a rage at the result.
    He said: “We’re gonna appeal. I want to appeal. I’m sorry that is outrageous.”
    In a separate rant, KSI fumed to Fury: “Robbery, it’s a robbery. You weren’t landing, look at your face.

    Dillon Danis accuses Logan Paul of missing weight and ‘changing rules’ ahead of fight.. with Jake Paul ready to step in

    DILLON DANIS has accused Logan Paul of “missing weight” and “changing rules” ahead of their highly-anticipated showdown.The grudge match between the two stars is set to be the co-headline bout in Manchester on Saturday night along with KSI versus Tommy Fury.

    The YouTuber posted a clip of himself on the scales making weight at 11:41amCredit: Splash

    But after an explosive pre-fight press conference last night, MMA star Danis claimed it should be off as he tweeted: “Logan Paul just missed weight.”
    But Paul, 28, quickly hit back at those claims by Danis by showing a clip of himself on the scales that showed his weight at 194.3lbs in a social media post at 11:41am.
    The 30-year-old Danis then vented his fury by posting this lengthy statement: “The commission’s rules state that weigh-ins are between 10 and 11. If you miss the 11 o’clock deadline, you’ve missed weight.
    “I weighed in at 10:15, but Logan still hasn’t. The commission said that if he doesn’t arrive by the 11am deadline, the fight is off.

    “He missed the weight, but then called misfits and changed the rules to give himself an extra hour.
    “We should be on an even playing field, he shouldn’t get special treatment.”
    Danis then claimed: “He’s already got more juice than Tropicana. He missed the weight, plain and simple. They’re trying to handicap me as much as possible.”
    Danis then took to X, formerly known as Twitter, again to say: “He claims he made weight, but it doesn’t count. The rules are the rules.

    CASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERS
    “If he wants to be viewed as a genuine boxer, he needs to follow the 11 o’clock deadline.
    “Look at the time he posted. It’s not fair; I had to follow the rules, and he isn’t an exception.”
    Despite Danis’ statements, Sun Sport understands that there was no 11am deadline for this showdown.

    Meanwhile, Paul’s younger brother Jake, 26, had earlier tweeted to state that he would step in.
    The 7-1 boxer posted: “I will always have my brother’s back.
    “I chose not to respond to the puppet’s countless tweets as it would only amplify his harassment.
    “But make no mistake, if Logan needed me to step in, I would take great joy in knocking that maggot out. See you soon.”
    That was after his elder sibling revealed his swollen face after being attacked by Danis in a chaotic pre-fight press conference.

    An explosive brawl left YouTuber-turned WWE star Paul gushing with blood on Thursday.
    The pair had just finished trash-talking on stage when Paul, who has a 0-1-2 record, hurled a bottle of his Prime drink at Danis’ nether regions.
    Danis hit back by swiping a microphone at his rival’s head as security tried to separate them.
    Paul was left clutching his face after the sickening thud of the impact cut open his cheek, with Danis then posting a picture of blood on the floor at the venue and captioned it with: “Play with fire get burnt p***y.”
    Mams Taylor, KSI’s manager and co-owner of Misfits Boxing, was initially unable to provide an update on the American’s health status after the shock incident.
    However, Paul took to social media to seemingly reassure fans that the highly-anticipated bout was still on despite the damage he suffered.
    He firstly tweeted: “This Saturday we catching a predator.”
    The much-maligned star then shared a selfie on Instagram of himself wearing dark goggles above the huge swelling and cut on his left cheek that he captioned with: “Can’t see the haterz.”

    Despite his impressive exploits in WWE, Paul has not set foot inside the boxing ring since his 2021 clash with Floyd Mayweather.
    Meanwhile, Bellator MMA welterweight Danis has not fought in over four years.

    Wayne Rooney in for awkward Tom Brady meeting after Man Utd legend’s old tweets emerge

    WAYNE ROONEY may be in for an awkward meeting the next time he sees Birmingham co-owner Tom Brady.That’s after some of Rooney’s outspoken old tweets resurfaced about how much he dislikes American Football.

    Rooney was a prolific tweeter during his playing days and one of the pioneers of footballers posting on the platform.
    Many loved his stream of consciousness approach to Twitter which allowed followers to dip in and out of the striker’s mind as he documented every passing thought.
    And among these was the ire he felt for American football and the country’s sports in general.
    Followers have discovered some classics from the archive such as this from 2012: “Trying to watch the Super Bowl Final, how do they call this football. Like watching paint dry. Looking forward to the adverts and music.”
    READ MORE IN FOOTBALL
    He continued his rant by saying: “Seen more guys in studio than the players at the Super Bowl. Zzzzzzz hurry up music.”
    He then expressed that he much preferred rugby league to its American cousin when he wrote: “Rugby league is far better than super bowl. Leeds rhinos to win again. I know its mad but im a rhinos fan.”
    Its awkward for Rooney that he will now call seven time Super Bowl winner and NFL legend Tom Brady his boss after his role in the takeover of Birmingham.
    Brady fronted up Knighthead Capital’s takeover of Birmingham back in August and it is said that he is taking an active role in the day to day running of the club.

    Wayne Rooney confirmed in his first press conference at the club that he has been in contact with the NFL legend and said: “I have spoken to Tom, he is very ambitious to move this club forward.
    “It’s great to have him here, it’s important for the players to see Tom Brady have an involvement. It’s very clear that Tom is fully involved in the club.”

    Rooney will have the international break to get his players up to speed with his methods and implement his play style at the club.
    His first game is against former Manchester United team-mate Michael Carrick as Birmingham take on Middlesbrough on Saturday October 21. More

    Danis – a long-time pal of UFC superstar Conor McGregor – pulled out of his January joust with Brit KSI and has teased another withdrawal over the last few weeks.
    And the social media troll isn’t committing to stepping between the ropes this weekend, insisting he’s only a “maybe” to enter the ring while hooked up to a lie detector.
    Danis – who has twice competed in Bellator – revealed he withdrew from his clash with KSI because it was a “lose-lose” for him.
    The American said of KSI: “He’s a p***y. I just think KSI’s a nobody, it was a lose-lose for me.
    READ MORE IN BOXING
    “And beating him was like ‘who cares?’ I don’t know, I didn’t really care about fighting him at all.
    “I think me and the Pauls have had a lot of history and there’s a lot more storyline, me and KSI never had a storyline.
    “I think he’s a loser, he’s not a real fighter, he’s a video gamer, brought nothing to me.
    “Logan has actually boxed Floyd Mayweather so at least he brings a little bit of credibility and it’s better.

    “I think KSI sucks and I would have starched him.
    “He’s working for me, I sold this whole fight so he’s my b****, tell him to take the bandana off and show his forehead, both of them!'”
    The build-up to Danis’ clash with Paul has been dominated by his relentless trolling of the YouTuber’s fiancee Nina Agdal.
    Danis has repeatedly shared photos of the Dane with her previous flames to X (formerly Twitter), inviting multiple pile ons.
    His targeted campaign against the model – in which he’s alleged to have shared hacked content from her private SnapChat – has seen him slapped with a restraining order.
    Agdal, however, will be in attendance for the fight.
    Paul revealed late last month: “It’s not a physical restraining order, she’ll be there.
    “No, no anxiety. Nina is a warrior, dude, Dillon Danis is a puddle.
    “Dillon Danis on Twitter, on X, behind a keyboard, is much different than Dillon Danis in person.” More

    Fans demanded a red card but the video assistant referee didn’t oblige with their calls for the Croatia international to have an early bath.
    And they were left seething five minutes later when the former Chelsea man took out Declan Rice with another poorly-timed challenge.
    Oliver didn’t deem the tackle worthy of a second booking, prompting a slew of angry Gooners to take to X (formerly Twitter) to vent their fury.
    One wrote: “Kovacic is still on the ground somehow.”

    The Emirates faithful’s fury was echoed by Arsenal super-fan and Sun columnist Piers Morgan.
    He asked: “How the hell is Kovacic still on the pitch?
    “Two horrendous fouls in 5 minutes. Abysmal refereeing.”
    Kovacic’s back-to-back fouls were the hot topic in the Sky Sports studio, where former City defender Micah Richards admitted the Croat should have seen red.
    He said: “I believe Kovačić should have seen red. The Rice challenge is definitely a second yellow.”
    Former Gunners hitman Theo Walcott said: “As soon as it went to VAR, I thought red card.
    “It’s a nasty challenge. For me, it’s a red. It’s genuinely endangering the player.”
    Arsenal ended up winning the game thanks to Gabriel Martinelli’s late goal, their first win over City in the Premier League for eight years. More
