      “Why don’t u two scared p*****s just fight each other [in] August?

      “I’ll fight someone who can really fight.”
      Diaz’s x-rated message to the pair came after Paul accepted the prospect of KSI being the backup opponent for his return to the ring.
      He said: “Great. I accept you as the backup opponent. [The] fight is at 185. There are no rehydration clauses.
      “Stay in shape and we will give you a call if needed. Thanks, buddy, for being so humble and committed.”

      Future UFC Hall of Famer Diaz found himself involved in a mass brawl following Misfits Boxing’s show in New Orleans – where he nearly clashed with Chase Demoor.
      Diaz didn’t throw any punches, opting instead to choke out his attacker OUT COLD with a standing guillotine after being rushed upon.
      The Stockon slugger then proceeded to carefully drop the man – who turned out to be Logan Paul lookalike and pro-MMA fighter Rodney Petersen Jr – on the street floor.

      He said: “So I don’t know what the hell I did to Nate Diaz.
      “But I’ll telling you what, I’m going to knock him the f*** out when I know he’s coming.
      “You caught me off guard, dude. Did you think I was Logan? What the f***?”

      Despite losing his 100 per cent record with February’s defeat to Tommy Fury, the 26-year-old is pulling on the gloves again to battle Nate Diaz on August 5.
      However, The Problem Child and Notorious have fired verbal jabs at each other for numerous years.
      And after McGregor claimed Diaz would “slap the head off” Paul, the American has hit back at the Irishman.
      Calling him out on his social media platforms, Paul said: “I’m a better boxer than you Conor and will do what you couldn’t and knock Nate out.

      “After Nate let’s box as the co main event same night as Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano in Dublin. 
      “But since you’re not your own boss you will hide behind Dana [White] or just drink the rest of your life away. August 5th you will see.”
      Serrano then backed the potential fight between the two stars, tweeting: “This has to be at Croke Park @MostVpromotions and @EddieHearn. Let’s Get It!”
      Paul’s promotion company also added on social media: “Katie Taylor is the greatest Irish athlete of all time. Amanda Serrano is the greatest Puerto Rican boxer of all time. The rematch in Ireland is massive.

      “Add Jake Paul and Conor McGregor and you just made the biggest fight event in European history.”
      McGregor did step into the ring for a lucrative fight with Floyd Mayweather in 2017 but was stopped in the tenth round.
      The 34-year-old has not fought since suffering a horrific broken leg in his defeat to Dustin Poirier in 2021 at UFC 264.
      He appears to be closing in on a return to the octagon with a potential bout against Michael Chandler.
      McGregor launched his Proper No12 whiskey in September 2018. He sold his controlling share in the wildly successful brand in April 2021 for an eyewatering $600million (£490m). More

      The song “Thrill” by the artist “Dide” was released on YouTube earlier this month.
      It has amassed almost 800,000 views since with the channel gaining around 30,000 subscribers.
      There has been a huge debate since over the true identity of Dide.
      Many thought at first that it was Arsenal’s Eddie Nketiah, while others speculated that it was Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha or Everton’s Alexander Iwobi.

      Now Liverpool supporters believe that they have worked out the mystery and it is one of their ex-academy graduates.
      Eagle-eyed fans have noticed that Dide has similar tattoos to the Liverpool”s former winger Sheyi Ojo.

      In the music video to ‘Thrill’, the rapper is spotted with a diamond-like tattoo on his right hand.
      And it is almost identical to the one on the same hand of the now Cardiff City ace.

      Who is the rapper “DIDE”?

      Others are also claiming that Ojo and Dide also have the same haircut.
      And they posted several snaps of the rapper and playmaker to back up their theory.
      The 25-year-old’s 11-year stay at Liverpool officially ended last summer when his contract expired.
      After loan spells at Wigan, Wolves, Fulham, Reims, Rangers, Cardiff and Millwall, he joined the Championship Bluebirds permanently at the start of the campaign.
      Dide made his introduction in February 2023 with the release of ‘Intro Freestyle’, which was captioned with the claim “Premier League football jumping in the UK music scene”.
      Although some are still convinced that Nketiah is the man behind the mask.
      And they even note that the rapper’s name is an anagram for Eddi.
      Some of the latest lyrics he has released are also believed to be a reference to Arsenal’s hunt for a first title triumph since 2004.
      They include lines such as “my team stay winning” and “every game is like a final”.

      How YouTube star AnEsonGib went from morbidly obese gamer to ripped boxer with stunning SEVEN STONE body transformation

      by

      YOUTUBE star AnEsonGib went from obese gamer to ripped boxer with a stunning SEVEN STONE body transformation. Gib – real name Ali Loui Al-Fakhri – shot to fame online playing Fifa and developed an unhealthy diet of junk food and fizzy drinks.

      He even admitted he was “morbidly obese” with a “belly and t**s” before he first walked into the gym.  
      But the rise of celebrity boxing matches gave ‘Gib’ the chance to complete a stunning body and career transformation.
      He was first trained by cruiserweight boxing prospect Viddal Riley and introduced to strength and conditioning coach Leon Wills.
      Wills has been with Gib for every fight since and helped mastermind a sensational weight loss.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      He told SunSport: “Gib was very overweight for his height and size, I think his max was probably about 110kg.
      “But mentally, funnily enough he was always strong. He’s always had a strong mind, strong willpower so he’s one of those clients that will always say yes to whatever.
      “He doesn’t moan about the exercise, he doesn’t moan about the workout and he gets it done. He’s well driven.”
      At Gib’s heaviest, he weighed over 17 STONE but his boxing return will be at 11st 8lb, meaning he has shifted almost seven stone.

      Wills said: “He’s fighting now at 75kg, so it’s about 45kg [he’s lost]. And the most important thing is his physique has changed, his body composition.
      “A lot of fat loss, muscle gain, he’s looking like a proper gentleman now, a proper man.”
      Gib is now coached by Abdul Yaseen – with Riley focussing on his own fight career – working alongside Wills.
      He has four or five strength and conditioning sessions a week, lasting for an hour, with warm up and stretches included.
      Wills works on strength, explosiveness and speed to help aid Gib’s performances in the ring.
      And having come down in weight, he also has a nutritionist on board, like he did in his 2020 loss to Jake Paul, to help instead put on size.

      Wills revealed: “We’re in constant communication.
      “She’ll ask me what type of sessions he’s having this week and I’ll explain to her whether it’s like a high impact session, or a demanding or light session, so we can balance the calories and X, Y, Z.”
      Wills has worked with big stars from the crossover boxing world, including KSI, 29, and his brother Deji, 26.
      But he is also part of Riley’s camp, who continues to improve as an 8-0 prospect with five knockouts.
      Gib has trained alongside all three and Wills said: “He’s a workhorse, very competitive.
      “If I make him train alongside someone, he’s going to make sure he’s beating him or doing the workout faster etc.
      “But they’re all good. They’re all different in their own right. Some can’t do certain exercises, some can, so everything is tailored to that specific athlete.

      “And that’s the thing with S&C, it’s not one size fits all. It has to be tailored, they all fight different.”
      Gib was stopped in one round by Paul in his professional debut.
      But he has bounced back with two wins since, against Americans Tayler Holder and Austin McBroom.
      And after six months out of the ring, Gib announced he had signed onto KingPyn’s eight-man winner-take-all tournament.
      Amazingly, he drew McBroom in the quarter-final with the rivals rematching on Saturday at Wembley Arena.
      And Gib enters the knockout tournament as a favourite to win it all.
      Wills said: “He has experience now, he’s been doing it for probably the longest. He’s got power, he’s got the best engine in the game – in the game totally.

      “So that’s what he needs to put altogether, the experience, the engine, boxing IQ, that’s what he needs to demonstrate and get through everybody in this tournament.”

      KSI, 29, said in a YouTube video: “That’s the problem with Jake Paul. He’s a fraud and people need to wake up to this fact. He can’t beat boxers.
      “That’s why he’s staying clear from me, Salt Papi, Joe Fournier, etc.

      “Ultimately, Jake Paul is scared of me. If we never manage to make this fight happen, I want you to know this Jake.
      “You will forever be known as the man that claimed to want to avenge his brother’s loss, but ultimately was too scared to actually go through it.
      “Enjoy your fight with another MMA fighter. When you’re actually ready to man up and end this feud with your boy KSI I’ll be here waiting.”
      KSI previously called out Paul following his KO win over Faze Temperrr, and promised fans the bout would happen before the end of the year.

      “Now, the world thinks I am vulnerable, when all I am is more focused than ever. My team wanted me to take an easy fight like KSI next, but that’s not how I am built.” More

      Paul will fight the UFC star on August 6 before targeting a rematch with Tommy Fury, who he lost to in February.
      The fight with Diaz is being touted as a must-win as the American looks to get his boxing career back on track.
      But Paul seems to be dealing with the pressure well and looked relaxed as he challenged Jasper to a sparring challenge.
      He bet the rapper $10,000 (£8,090) that he would not last 45 seconds in the ring with him.

      After the bet was accepted, Paul chased his opponent around the ring before landing a heavy jab.

      Among the people watching was Paul’s new girlfriend Jutta Leerdam.
      However, Jasper did not give up as he got back into the ring and managed to throw a few punches at Paul.

      Although he was still deploying his tactic of trying to avoid being punched himself and even combat rolled away as a way of dodging Paul.
      But after taking a rally of body hits while in a corner, Jasper called it a day and Paul was declared the winner.
      While it is not clear how long the pair sparred for, it is presumed that he did not win the money.

      He lost a split-decision to Tommy Fury in Saudi Arabia and has since revealed he will make additions to his camp.
      And it appears one of those will be bringing back three-division champion Shane Mosley into the fray.
      Mosley posted a picture with Paul on Instagram and hinted at a reunion between the two.
      He captioned the post: “This is where the understanding of boxing for @jakepaul started now it’s time to blossom in boxing to another level. We are about to level up.”

      Paul turned professional with Mosley in 2020 – training in Big Bear California – and went onto beat online rival AnEsonGib in one round.
      But the relationship ended there as former cruiserweight title challenger BJ Flores took the reins.
      Flores led Paul to five wins, against the likes of ex-MMA champions Ben Askren, 38, Tyron Woodley, 40, and Anderson Silva, 47.
      But when the social media sensation faced a recognised boxer for the first time in Fury, 23, he was beaten.
