      ‘I’d eat him in a beef sandwich’ – Tyson Fury clears up feud with UFC star Conor McGregor after Twitter spat

      by

      TYSON FURY says he would ‘eat Conor McGregor in a beef sandwich’, just weeks after their Twitter spat.Former two-weight UFC champ McGregor and the current WBC heavyweight boxing king Fury randomly had it out on social media.

      Fury now claims the row was just a ‘publicity stunt’ explaining that he and McGregor could never fall out for real.
      Speaking at a press conference announcing his next fight against Dillian Whyte, the Gypsy King said: “Beef? Man’s 10 stone [I’m] 20 stone behave yourselves, only beef we would have is me eating him in a beef sandwich.
      “[It was a] bit of a publicity stunt. Super Bowl weekend, all eyes on us.”
      The ‘beef’ started when Fury shared a picture of McGregor’s rival Khabib Nurmagomedov and praised the retired Russian fighter.
      Fury posted: “This man did it right. Got in and won and got out on top. Big respect.”
      McGregor, who lost his grudge match with Khabib in 2018, responded by slamming Fury for not stepping in when Billy Joe Saunders’ dad was shoved by security after his son’s scrap with Canelo last year.

      McGregor said: “Yup the Joyces. Big Joe! U bottled it with Billy joe Da, what were you doing there?”.
      The 33-year-old has since deleted the tweet.
      Fury then responded saying: “Come back when u win a fight mush, & the difference in me & you is I don’t get myself in trouble & people actually like me, your just a bully who hit old man.”
      McGregor then replied: “Oh no people don’t like me what will I ever do hahahahaaha idiot. You are just a little r** licker bro. That’s all. You stood there while your friends father was being attacked and done nothing.”
      Fury stopped short of continuing this argument on.
      But recently he commented on an old video clip of him praising the Notorious and saying: “It’s all good, we forget it.
      McGregor responded: “Fair play Tyson. God bless ya mate.”
      The pair appear to have patched up their differences More

      SOCIAL MEDIA star Armz Korleone is a man of many talents – with boxing the next string to his bow. The hulking 17stone Londoner has gained fame on Instagram with over 500,000 followers.

      Armz Korleone has fought in MMA before
      Armz is widely recognised for his astonishing physique, having competed in bodybuilding and weightlifting before.
      But the 29-year-old is also a talented painter and rapper – who has tried his hand at a host of sports, including rugby and American football. 
      Armz regularly mixes workout posts with funny skits online – a blend which he says is behind his rise in popularity.
      He told SunSport: “It’s a combination of my physique, my work ethic and my personality and how I created my videos and content.
      “I always aimed to have my content be very interactive, not the normal thing you see.”
      Armz has been training at London Shootfighters in mixed martial arts since last March and in September had an MMA bout against music producer ‘Bouncer’.

      It ended in a points loss for Armz, who now makes his return in boxing on Saturday night, featuring in a UK vs USA influencer event.
      His dedication to combat sports has seen weight lifting take a backseat – although not parked totally.
      Armz explained: “When it comes to mixed martial arts, there is no room for weight training, unless you make time.
      “Mixed martial arts and boxing are two different sports, when I do my mixed martial arts training, there’s a lot of wrestling, a lot of jiu jitsu, striking, boxing, kickboxing.
      “For two hours you’re constantly getting slammed on the floor, you’re doing locks, getting choked out, then you have to do striking.
      “So after all of that, there’s not really any room for weight lifting. But I’ve been pushing myself, so I do still get my weight lifting in.”
      Armz has been lifting weights ever since he can remember and joined a gym the moment he turned 16, when he was legally allowed to do so.
      But he revealed swapping the dumbbells and bench press for heavy bags and pads has been easier than expected.

      Armz said: “I love it, but I know in my head I’ll come back to it. But I’m working towards something, so in that respect I’m not wasting my time.
      “The sacrifice is for something – and to be honest it’s not a sacrifice because I’m learning and gaining new skills.
      “Weight lifting, my body is always going to be accustomed to it.”
      Armz’s personal best bench press was a whopping 230kg – equivalent to a 36 STONE man.
      He revealed: “That was at my peak. I say at my peak, that was when I was really, really immersed in weight lifting and that was all I was doing.
      “So 230kg was my heaviest, 140kg at that time was my warm up!
      “But right now, 140kg is my max work. But like I said, I’m coming back, I’m coming for all the weights.”
      At the height of his lifting, Armz weighed as heavy as 119kg (18st 7lb) but has now dropped to 108kg (17st).

      And as well as the pounds, Armz has also lost his appetite, totally switching up his eating habits.
      He said: “My approach to food has never been conventional.
      “A lot of people are like, ‘Oh my God, I need to eat, I need to get my calories’. Measuring their calories etc, I’ve never done that.
      “Before, when I was new in the game so to speak, I would eat like eight meals religiously, everyday, I knew I had to get my meal prep in check straight away.
      “Up until now, where I’ve been raising focus on myself, my approach towards food has been different. I listen to my body more.
      “When it comes to food, I don’t over indulge. I don’t care about missing calories, if my body feels like it has enough energy and I can go and work, I’ll do that.
      “Sometimes I don’t even eat in the morning, I’ll just have a banana or something, that’s good enough for me.”
      Armz will make his boxing debut against American musician and internet personality ‘Minikon’.

      And he has prepared for the bout training alongside MMA stars such as Michael ‘Venon’ Page.
      It gives Armz confidence against whoever he steps foot in the ring with at Wembley Arena next week.
      He said: “I don’t know much, I don’t really care. I just know he’s another body.
      “When I came in here, I got thrown in the deep end, I’m used to being thrown in the deep end.
      “I came here and I was sparring all these pros, world-class MMA fighters.
      “You don’t have time to think, ‘Oh my God, what do I need to know? What weight is he? How hard does he punch?’
      “You don’t care about that. You go in, face the music and survive.
      “It’s sink or swim, and that’s the story of my life and I’ve always survived and swam.”

      The event is available on pay-per-view stream for £7 via the Showstar website here. Tickets are on sale here.

      Tommy Fury called out by Tyron Woodley after Jake Paul urges Love Island star and ex-UFC champion to fight

      by

      TOMMY FURY has been called out by Tyron Woodley after Jake Paul urged the pair to fight. YouTube star Paul has previous with the two, having beaten Woodley twice and seeing a grudge match with Fury cancelled.

      The brother to heavyweight champion Tyson, 33, pulled out of the fight in December with a broken rib and chest infection.
      Fury, 22, has pleaded with his promotional team to agree a rescheduled date but Paul, 25, has been unwilling to oblige.
      He instead told the 2019 Love Islander to earn it, by either fighting Woodley, 39, or featuring on Tyson’s next undercard.
      And ex-UFC champion Woodley is ready to go, as he responded to the challenge: “I’m wit (sic) it.”
      Paul first beat the American on points in August then won the rematch with a brutal knockout four months later after Fury pulled out.
      And he wants to see Woodley now get in the ring with his celebrity boxing rival.

      Paul said on The MMA Hour: “He’s delusional and he sort of missed his chance and his opportunity.
      “I sort of want him to fight Tyron Woodley and see what happens there.
      “Because I think Tyron would knock Tommy out, so, I almost want to have them fight.
      “Tommy, people only know him because of me, and so I want him to go get some of your own fans, or clout, or go do some other thing.
      “Then, maybe we could run it back after that.”

      Watch shocking moment boxer picks up opponent and performs TWO MMA move leaving commentator and referee stunned

      by

      A BOXER stunned fight fans last weekend by landing TWO double-leg takedowns at Global Legion FC 20.Alberto Blas – who also competes in mixed martial arts – appeared to forget he was taking part in a boxing match as he shot in for a takedown less than a minute into his clash with Timmy Mason last weekend.

      The Cuban executed a picture-perfect power double, beautifully dropping to his knees and slamming Mason to the canvas.
      The referee and announcers were left absolutely stunned by Blas’ takedown – which Mason was powerless to stop.
      Blas, 27, was quickly pushed off Mason so he couldn’t rain down any ground and pound.
      Stunningly, the ref didn’t disqualify Blas for his blatant violation of the rules.
      But just moments later, it soon became apparent Blas’ takedown wasn’t muscle memory kicking in as he took Mason down a second time.
      The ref struggled to pull El Indio off his opponent the second time but promptly disqualified him from the match after separating the pair.

      Two days after the shambles of a fight, Blas’ coach revealed he instructed him to take Mason down in retaliation to him being punched in the back of the head.
      He wrote on Instagram: “‼️INSTANT REVENGE‼️
      “Remembering the great, legendary boxer Prichard Colon, a hit to the back of the head is never to be taken lightly.
      “It can cause severe permanent damage or even death.
      “After flying across the country for this MMA event, we were notified the MORNING OF that our fighter’s opponent pulled out.
      “As any fearless fighter would, @indioencuba stepped up within hours of the event to fight in a boxing match with an opponent over 20 LBS HEAVIER.

      “Within minutes of the match, the opponent hit our fighter to the back of the head with NO remorse and NO repercussion.
      “I knew this wasn’t a risk to take. I then instructed @indioencuba to double leg the opponent and remind him that if he wants to play DIRTY…. we can play DIRTIER.”
      He added: “I almost asked for a head kick but we didn’t want to hurt the opponent.”
      Shocked viewers of the fight were quick to comment, with one tweeting: “Beautiful double leg takedown, but why the f*** did he even do that for? Lol.”
      Another said: “This is what we all wanted to see Conor McGregor do to Floyd Mayweather. What entertainment that would have been.”
      One asked: “Why did the guys on the side clap even tho its wrong lmfaaooo?”

      Perry knocked down Lane in the first round, but his opponent came back into the scrap well and took it to the scorecards.
      At one point heavily-tattooed Perry was seen spitting blood out of his mouth during the brutal battle.
      The Florida fighter left UFC in 2021. He made a winning bare-knuckle debut later that year when he beat Michael Seals at Triller Triad.
      His triumph against Lane was his first fight with the BKFC organisation.
      And it was all the sweeter for Perry against a fierce rival.
      The two former MMA fighters were involved in a viral brawl last December.

      The pair clashed after Lane threw an object while Perry was in the commentary booth.
      Perry shocked fans when he brought a BASEBALL BAT with him to the pre-fight press conference.
      Speaking about the incident, Perry told MMA Hour: “I’m gonna have my own bat, I don’t know how security gonna be.
      “I don’t know how quick they gonna be… I’m protecting myself, I gotta take care of me and the people around me.
      “Outside of the ring, it ain’t fair. We ain’t fighting fair. I had a plastic wiffle ball bat, if that’s really an upper hand, you’ll be alright. You was gonna get a little smack to the face no problem.
      “Nobody knew I had it on me. It was funny to me, thinking about it like that.
      “Nobody knew I had this bat boy, I’ll pull it out and get three feet of reach on your ass real quick!”

      UFC star Khabib’s manager claims YouTuber Jake Paul would ‘beat the s***’ out of Conor McGregor and his teammates

      by

      KHABIB NURMAGOMEDOV’S manager has claimed Jake Paul would ‘beat the s***’ out of Conor McGregor and all his team-mates. YouTuber Paul has been relentlessly pursuing a boxing match with McGregor and even claimed he sent the UFC star a $50million (£37m) deal.

      It came after he called The Notorious an ‘Irish c***’ and insulted his fiancee Dee Devlin last year.
      The viral callout earned the respect of Nurmagomedov’s manager Ali Abdelaziz – who himself has a bitter rivalry with McGregor.
      Abdelaziz told TMZ Sports: “Jake Paul, I like this kid. You know why? Because he is real.
      “When he talked about Conor’s wife, [Paul] said [McGregor] talked about Khabib’s wife. I like Jake Paul.
      “I think he’ll beat the s**t out of Conor, Conor’s team-mates, all these guys.
      “I like his brother too. Logan Paul, I like these kids, they make something from nothing. Even Mike Tyson likes these kids. Mike is my friend.”

      Ex-UFC fighter Mike Perry threatens to hit bare-knuckle opponent with a BASEBALL BAT in fiery press conference

      And after being goaded by Lane for the umpteenth time, he pulled a bat out of nowhere and said: “What’s up, little b***h?”
      Ultimate Fighter season 16 contestant Lane immediately mocked Perry, saying: “You’ve got a bat, b****?
      “He needs a bat. What are you going to do with that?
      “My peoples already waiting outside to get your a** but I’ve got to make them wait so I can let you get in the ring and get really f****d up.
      “So with that bat, you might want to watch yourself when you’re walking out of here, you’re going to play like that.”
      Perry, however, lightened the mood by dismantling the bat and showing it was just a prop.

      Jake Paul reignites war of words with UFC legend Conor McGregor by pointing out how much Tyson Fury earns for fighting

      by

      JAKE PAUL has reignited his war of words with Conor McGregor – and this time he’s taken aim at the UFC star’s wages.The YouTuber began targeting McGregor with a series of expletive-filled videos 14 months ago before stopping his digs after seeing him break his leg last July.

      Paul, however, put McGregor back in his crosshairs last month by mentioning him in his Dana White ‘diss track’.
      And now, he’s mocked the former two-division champion’s earnings by claiming they pale in comparison to those of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
      After seeing McGregor congratulate UFC middleweight champ Israel Adesanya for his new bumper deal, Paul tweeted: “Indeed well deserved [sic] for Izzy but unfortunately Tyson Fury still makes more than both of you combined for fighting.”
      The Problem Child then called for McGregor to step up and speak out about fighter pay in the UFC.
      He asked: “Conor, when you gonna [sic] start playing your part to get ALL fighters better pay and healthcare?”
      McGregor, who has yet to respond to Paul, hailed Adesanya’s bumper new deal by saying: “Congrats Paradigm Sports Management Agency.

      Future UFC Hall of Famer McGregor, 33, is currently gearing up for a potential summer return to the octagon.
      The Irishman shattered his left leg in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier last July but has made a faster-than-anticipated recovery.
      Paul, meanwhile, is currently playing the role of promoter ahead of Amanda Serrano’s clash with Katie Taylor but is eyeing a September return to the ring.
      During an appearance on The MMA Hour, he said: “There’s a lot going on in other aspects of my life.
      “I’m going to do these press conferences over the next two weeks here to help with the promotion around Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano and I’m very busy on the business side of things with my venture capital fund.
      “So I haven’t even got back into the gym or been training at all.
      “I need to have a discussion with my coaches but probably I would say August-September maybe. Maybe later. I’m trying to figure it out.
      “Obviously if the stars align in some sort of way or I have a change of heart, then things can obviously move around but right now I don’t feel like that motivated to just go right back into another training camp.”
