By Ponciano Melo – Tyson Fury\’s set of three battles with Deontay Wilder is fixed for July 24. His resulting multi-million blockbuster with Anthony Joshua currently relies upon effectively protecting their reality heavyweight titles this late spring.

Bob Arum, the Gypsy King\’s US advertiser, has affirmed: \’Fury v Wilder is definitely on here in Vegas at the Allegiant Stadium. No question.

\’The lawyers are working on the contracts as we speak, and the official announcement will come very shortly.

\’There is no chance of Wilder taking step aside compensation. Not even at ridiculously overinflated sums like the $20million (£14m) which has been speculated,\” Arum continued.

Of the legal judgment which has prevented Fury and Joshua finally fighting in Saudi Arabia in August for the undisputed world heavyweight title, Arum says: \’Tyson\’s not happy, but he\’s a real fighting man.

\’He vows to knock out Wilder even quicker than he did last time.\’

Joshua is turning to an August fight against Oleksandr Usyk, and Arum says: \’I\’m just hoping Anthony wins so we can go ahead with him and Tyson in Saudi in December.

\’But Usyk is an outstanding boxer, and that could be a difficult fight.\’

The sudden change of plan was due to the court ruling involving Wilder\’s rematch clause with Fury. The irony was that the judgment came out a day after the WBC Heavyweight Champion confirmed his fight with Anthony Joshua for the undisputed heavyweight champion on social media.

Kyrie Irving courts LeBron James to join Mavs

Kyrie Irving courts LeBron James to join Mavs

The stories have been LeBron wanting Kyrie back, but this time it’s Irving who reached out for James to come to Dallas and play for the Mavericks next season.

The report quickly went viral as a potential Irving-James-Doncic big three is now brewing.

However, trading for LeBron James means a lot of players and future round picks for the Mavericks.

It can be recalled that James was trying to land Irving in the middle of the regular season, but the Lakers failed to do so which put Irving from Brooklyn to Dallas to team up with Luka Doncic.

They fell short of a playoff spot and now it seems Irving seriously wants another trophy with him luring James for an epic reunion.

Whether this fails due to the cap restriction, Irving could still possibly join James in the Lakers as LA looks to revamp its squad despite reaching the conference finals after a slow start of the season.

After parting ways with former Coach of the Year Monty Williams, the Phoenix Suns have already made their choice on who will hold the helm next season and it will be seasoned-tactician Frank Vogel, according to reports.

The 49-year old head coach had been with three NBA teams namely Indiana Pacers, Orlando Magic, and the Los Angeles Lakers where he led them to their 19th championship banner during the 2020 NBA bubble.

With this development, questions arise for the future of Chris Paul and DeAndre Ayton.

The future Hall of Famer point guard was forced to sit out in the crucial part of their playoff run due to injury and with his age being a factor, a possibility of him being traded is very much likely. The same applies to Ayton who was ineffective in the postseason.

Trading these two key pieces of Phoenix can lure a superstar or role players that could help Kevin Durant and Devin Booker win a championship for the franchise.
