Reigning WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury expressed his intention to fight in December against anyone after a 10-month layoff.

Fury last fought Deontay Wilder resulting to the spectacular knockout victory to the Gypsy King. Right after the bout, both boxers told that they will face for the third time, a decision that both parties have agreed on. However, Wilder needed longer recovery period and due to the coronavirus, their trilogy was put to uncertainty.

And as the WBC champ, Fury insisted that he can’t be resting for too long as he is one of the most attracting boxing opponent right now.

“He\’s at his best physically and mentally when he\’s busy as a boxer and it\’s my responsibility to help keep him in the great shape he is now on both fronts,” said Fury’s promoter Frank Warren.

Damian Lillard joins rare club on third 60-point game this season

Portland Trail Blazers Damian Lillard has been in another dimension for the last few games dominating the scoring column. And on his recent 61-point explosion, he joined a feat that only the great Wilt Chamberlain had done, recording three 60-point game in a single season.

The scoring spree of Lillard was very timely for the Blazers who are vying for the last seat of the playoffs in the Western Conference.

The race for the final spot has been very tight since the NBA restart which only gave each time an eight regular season games.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.

He believed that he came exhausted, which resulted in his humiliating defeat.
