Things are much worse than it seemed before! Allegedly, Floyd Mayweather is still wrestling with Dubai officials, striving to secure his journey back home. Meanwhile, Gervonta Davis, his erstwhile protege, has intensified his tirade about the former five-division champion through social media today.

Just the other day, ‘Tank’ Davis accused, ironically named, ‘Money’ Mayweather of failing to pay his dues to people in Dubai, which resulted in the government blocking his journey back home. According to reports, the feud between the former promoter and boxer duo began with Mayweather’s comments about fighters spending all their money instead of saving it. However, Davis now alleges that Mayweather’s latest attempt at returning has been thwarted once again.

Gervonta Davis shares insights from Mayweather’s crisis in Dubai

Turning to his Instagram story hours earlier, the undefeated Baltimore native shared a post from Gossip Of The City. The post highlighted, “Floyd is being held by government officials in Dubai. He’s trying to work out something with them to be able to return home.” Further stoking the wildfire, Davis seems to have shared what’s going on with Mayweather and Dubai officials.

He captioned his story, “He tried to leave today, they said ‘Nope, sit still before I f**k you up.’” Mayweather’s corner hasn’t provided an official word on his whereabouts or the situation Mayweather has found himself in. However, not long ago, he fired back at Davis by sharing a clip of Davis dancing, raising questions about Davis’ sexuality.

Not to mention, Mayweather was also pushing for a fight between Davis and Shakur Stevenson by sharing a clip of Stevenson urging Davis to accept the fight. As this situation was unfolding on social media, Davis’s former opponent chimed in to explain the situation.

Off of a big win over Devin Haney, boxer sheds light on Floyd Mayweather and Davis’ beef
Ryan Garcia fought Gervonta Davis last year in April, collecting his first career defeat. However, right after his latest win over Devin Haney, the Victorville native appeared in an interview with Marca. Reflecting on the ongoing feud between Davis and Mayweather, Garcia claimed he knows exactly what’s fueling their beef.

“I already knew about it, once Gervonta f**ked Floyd Mayweather’s daughter. That’s not even a secret, that’s not something I’m exposing,” Garcia candidly told Marca. It’s unclear why Garcia decided to get involved in the situation. However, it’s worth mentioning that not long ago, he went on a rampage on social media to promote his fight against Haney. And now, he has expressed a desire for a rematch with Davis.

In a nutshell, if what Gervonta Davis is claiming has a hint of truth, Floyd Mayweather might be a sea of trouble in Dubai. However, only time will tell what exactly happened to the boxing legend in Dubai. Do you agree with Davis?

Floyd Mayweather, boxing’s king of bling, isn’t afraid to flaunt his riches. Over his two-decade reign, he racked up the biggest paydays in the sport and now spends them like a champion. Mayweather has a taste for the finer things – million-dollar mansions, dazzling designer threads, and watches that cost more than most people’s houses.

Mayweather recently got spotted by TMZ, dripping in Gucci, a constant reminder that ‘Money’ Mayweather loves his money. Along with that, he also loves showing off his wealth to the fans. However, at the same, he isn’t too snotty about it. During their conversation, he even complimented the TMZ reporter on her outfit.

Floyd Mayweather’s love for diamonds isn’t just about flashy chains and watches anymore. It’s reached his feet! In a recent chat with TMZ, Mayweather showcased some truly eye-catching footwear – shoes with their heels encrusted with diamonds. These dazzling kicks became the unexpected ice-breaker for his candid talk with a reporter who was waiting for him.

The interview opened with a compliment on Mayweather’s attire. His response, “Don’t we all?” hinted at his characteristic confidence and lavish lifestyle. While the reporter insisted that her outfit was far from “fantastic,” Mayweather maintained a courteous tone, acknowledging everyone’s good looks.

The reporter then shifted her focus to the real showstopper – the Gucci suit. Mayweather acknowledged the compliment with a simple “Thank you,” perhaps unfazed by the attention his expensive taste attracts. The interview concludes with the reporter’s most pressing question: Mayweather’s return to the ring. However, his response, “The Mayweather zone,” offered little clarity.

It could be a reference to his dominant fighting style or simply a way to deflect the question. Nonetheless, Mayweather’s love for Gucci can never be denied. As for his fans, they loved him for all his flashy tune-ups, including his recent one.

Jazzed-up Money stands out
A wave of positive comments washed over the post, with many fans complimenting Mayweather’s choice of attire. Comments like “He looks happy and hope he’s well” and “Million dollar man” captured the general sentiment of approval for his luxurious appearance.

High fashion with a hint of sass: Some fans took the opportunity to offer sartorial suggestions. One follower playfully remarked, “Black t neck would of made it SNATCHED, he defineitly needs bling ice,” highlighting the fighter’s penchant for extravagant jewelry.

‘Money Mayweather’ has been known for his lavish lifestyle. One fan, channeling this playfully, commented, “The real diddler,” a lighthearted jab often associated with people who are too flashy.

Not all comments focused on fashion. A particular follower seemed more concerned with Mayweather’s facial hair, urging him with, “Can we please sheen the beard ty.”

Mayweather’s social media presence is known for sparking conversation, and the latest post from TMZ is no exception. From enthusiastic praise to friendly fashion advice, the comments offer a glimpse into how fans perceive the boxing champion’s extravagant and ever-so-slightly ostentatious style.

Tyson and Paris Fury have gone from childhood sweethearts to a life of luxury, complete with expensive cars, designer goods, overseas holidays and even a third engagement.

While figures vary, the boxer’s net worth is reported to sit somewhere over £48 million, with some estimates putting it as high as £130 million.

With six kids and a seventh on the way, the pair have had to upsize more than a few times to cater for their growing family, with fans getting a look inside their current Morecambe mansion on the Netflix series At Home With the Furys.

Although Tyson and Paris have expressed concerns they might have to move if people start turning up to their family home, as has been the case before, their current house has been fitted with all the comforts they may need, including plenty of personal touches.

Their family moved into the home – located in his hometown of Morecambe – two years ago.

Valued at £1.7 million, they initially upgraded from another five-bed, four-bathroom home in the area that had been worth more than £550,000.

Speaking on a three-part ITV documentary, Tyson Fury: The Gypsy King, in 2020, Tyson explained what it was about Morecambe that made them want to stay.

‘People say to me, “Why don’t you live in California or America?” – why would I?’ he explained.

‘Why would I abandon my own country for a bit of money and some fame?

‘I love it. I would never leave Morecambe. It’s true beauty. If the weather was better, every house here would be a million quid.’

Their current home features lavish Versace décor, thrones for the couple and a bespoke driveway with a mural dedicated to the ‘Gypsy King’.

Various rooms have been seen throughout the documentary series, with the couple’s master suite featuring panoramic windows, trimmed with velour curtains, while a huge Versace bed is decorated with plenty of gold accents.

The brand is clearly beloved by the family, with some of them seen wearing Versace bathrobes while being filmed.

Back in 2021, Tyson also spent £3,000 on matching outfits for him and his kids, with Paris posting a photo on social media and joking her family ‘looked like a Versace advert’ when going out together

Other details seen of the home include a huge wooden staircase at the centre of the entrance hallway, while there is also a grand piano nearby, despite the fact no one in the family can actually play the instrument.

Their kitchen is a mix of wood cupboards and marble countertops, with the family regularly seen gathering there in the series.

While the pair dress their children in designer clothes, with Paris regularly posting photos of their kids dressed up on social media, she’s made sure to say she doesn’t want them to grow up entitled.

In an episode of the series, Paris told eldest daughter Venezuela that she wouldn’t be ‘sponging off’ her parents and would have to plan for her future.

Telling her 13-year-old that she ‘can’t just scrape willy-nilly all through life’, she added that ‘a proper person wouldn’t want to live off their family all their life’.

Tyson and Paris’s six kids are daughters Venezuela, Valencia, and Athena, and sons, Prince John James, Prince Tyson II, and Prince Adonis.

Last week, Paris shared a photo of her kids playing outside and said that life in their household was ‘definitely more school runs and chaos than glamour in the Fury household’.

‘My home and my family is at the heart of everything I do, like any Mam I think. I’m a busy, hands-on parent with children to raise and a household to manage.

‘In my eyes there’s nothing more important than being a loyal wife and a good mother, and I work really hard to ensure that Tyson and the kids are properly looked after.’

She added that her family’s welfare and well-being mattered more to her than ‘anything else on earth’.

WWE Star Bayley has reflected on her run alongside Mercedes Mone (fka Sasha Banks) ahead of The Boss’ expected AEW debut.

With Mercedes Mone’s all but confirmed AEW debut set to take place at tonight’s Big Business event (March 12), her closest ally and rival from her time in WWE has taken to Twitter to reflect on a specific moment from the pair’s run together in the company.

On it’s four-year anniversary, a Twitter user uploaded a post reflecting on WWE’s first pandemic-era broadcast – the March 13, 2020 episode of SmackDown.

As seen in the image below, it was Bayley and Mone who began WWE’s pandemic-era in the WWE Performance Center, competing in the first match behind closed doors against Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross.

In reaction to the post, Bayley said:

During this period Bayley was in the middle of a 380 day reign as SmackDown Women’s Champion, a title she would finally lose to Mone at the 2020 Hell in a Cell pay-per-view in October 2020.

This would be the second-to-last time the pair would face off one-on-one, with Mone departing the company in May 2022.

There’s plenty to being a professional wrestler beyond what happens in the ring. That includes workouts and match planning, but also sometimes tasks like booking hotels and driving themselves from city to city to make the next show. And for WWE Raw Women’s Champion Bianca Belair, it also means making her own ring gear—a behind-the-scenes job the champion is reluctant to give up, despite the increasingly demanding schedule that accompanies her status as one of the longest reigning singles champions in company history.

“It’s a part of who I am,” Belair, 33, tells GQ while sewing together her ring gear for this weekend’s WrestleMania 39 event. “I call myself the ‘-est’ of WWE. I’m the strongest, the fastest, the roughest, the toughest, the quickest, the greatest, the best, and I want to do everything myself and I want to give 110 percent. That’s not just me being a WWE superstar, but that’s me training in the ring, that’s me working out, that’s me studying my promos, and that’s also me making my own gear.”

Belair’s unique, self-assigned side gig is just another layer to what makes her one of the most impressive stars in WWE today. Having overcome an eating disorder during her collegiate track and field career, the Knoxville native learned wrestling on the fly at the company’s developmental gym in Florida and has gone on to become one of the promotion’s most inspiring stars during her two world title reigns. Her latest—a 360-day (and counting) run as the champion of WWE’s flagship “Monday Night RAW” program—has been groundbreaking. Earlier this month, Belair became the longest reigning Black singles champion in the company’s long and famous history. And this weekend, at WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles, she’ll defend her title against three-time women’s champion Asuka. But the humble WWE star still does things DIY, and takes calculated care of every detail of the character fans see each week on television—down to the clothes.

And Sulaiman believes it could end up being ordered as a final eliminator for the WBC world title after the pair both fight on December 23.

Joshua will fight previous Tyson Fury opponent Otto Wallin and Wilder will take on former world champion Joseph Parker on the same card next month and the natural progression is for the winners of these fights to clash in a final eliminator for the WBC crown.

“In itself it is a natural WBC elimination tournament,” Sulaiman told Sky Sports.

“You have Wilder, No 1, Joshua, you have Parker, you have Otto Wallin, all those are highly ranked in the WBC. After December 23 we’re going to see a different picture in the rankings.”

Sulaiman continued: “It looks like Wilder and Joshua are on a collision course. That could very well be a final elimination to determine a mandatory contender for the WBC title.

“Unbelievable. That would be a dream come true for the fans.”

Sulaiman added: “I am very happy to see the promoters collaborating, the managers, the fighters. Of course there’s big money involved but you have to make it.

“You can dream of things, we have been dreaming for this and this is the perfect moment to get into another era of boxing. So we will be supporting as much as we can.”

But, Sulaiman also revealed that he will not be ordering any mandatories too soon so as not to disrupt the undisputed heavyweight world title fight between Fury and Oleksandr Usyk on December 17.

There is also a rematch clause between the two men, but Sulaiman explained: “The WBC board of governors has approved Fury against Usyk in February and then the rematch so there will not be anything in the way, as far as the WBC, for both fights to take place.”

He shocked fans when he revealed he had a secret son in a Twitter post.

And Anthony Joshua was enjoying some bonding time with his little boy as he hit the beach in Dubai alongside his brother’s girlfriend Sam on Monday.
AJ, 32, has made Dubai his home away from home he gears up for his high-stakes rematch with

But the former unified heavyweight champion has made sure to have some fun in the sun with some of the youngest members of his family before he fully immerses himself in training camp.

Joshua shared a reel of himself and his nieces and nephews enjoying themselves on a water raft to his Instagram on Thursday.

His accompanying caption read: “I just realised, I’m that fun uncle now. How time flies!!!”

Boxing fans were quick to comment on the heartwarming clip, with one saying: “Family first.”

Another said: “That’s amazing, family is everything! Stay humble champ.”

And another said: “That uncle that drops £20 to you on your birthday and says, ‘Don’t tell Mum.'”

One came up with a neat pun based on Joshua’s full name, saying: “Funcle Fem.”

Olympic gold medallist Joshua suffered a lopsided points defeat to the undefeated Usyk in their Tottenham tussle last September.

AJ flirted with the prospect of stepping aside from his rematch with the Ukrainian to pave the way for a blockbuster undisputed fight with Tyson Fury but opted not to take the £15million offer.

Joshua will have a new head coach in his corner for his potentially do-or-die rematch with Usyk after ditching long-time trainer Rob McCracken.

The Watford warrior has yet to reveal the identity of the new man in charge, which promoter Eddie Hearn insists will soon become public knowledge.

He recently told DAZN: “AJ will do that himself in due course when camp starts, there’s been training in the US, there’s been training in the UK.

“He’s, he’s got a good idea in his mind now what his team will look like for that training camp.

“I think he’s buoyant. He’s excited. He feels like he’s done the research. He’s done the work.

“In the next three or four weeks, it’ll be time to enter camp and I’m sure we’ll make an announcement about who’s on the team.

He shocked fans when he revealed he had a secret son in a Twitter post.

And Anthony Joshua was enjoying some bonding time with his little boy as he hit the beach in Dubai alongside his brother’s girlfriend Sam on Monday.

Cuddling up to his little one, the 28-year-old boxer waded into the sea with Joseph on his hip, before the group frolicked in the waters together.
Showing off his musclebound physique, Anthony donned a pair of khaki swimming trunks whilst he accessorised with a baseball cap and shades.

Beaming broadly, the world heavyweight champion seemed in great spirits as he ran across the shore line with his son in tow.

Sam – who is dating Anthony’s brother Jacob – also joined the pair in the sea, and showed off her peachy posterior in a pair of skimpy bikini briefs that she wore with a plain white T-shirt.

Anthony stunned his Twitter followers in April 2016 when he revealed he had a secret child who was six months old – son Joseph.

Joshua, from Watford, Hertfordshire, captioned an adorable image of his son: ‘Achieved one of my goals as a professional boxer! Now the dust has settled it’s time to relax with my lil champ JJ’.

Baby Joseph Bayley Temiloluwa Prince Joshua was born at Watford General Hospital on October 6.

oshua went to great lengths to keep the news of his son a secret, including buying a £500,000 flat in Finchley, north London for his on/off girlfriend Nicole, The Sun reported.

The couple are said to have had a turbulent relationship over the years, with Joshua being linked to singer Rita Ora, 25, and model Cara Delevingne, 23.

The London 2012 gold medallist still lives with his mother in a former council flat in north London.

It was good to see Anthony in high spirits over the festive period, despite missing out on a New Year honour just days after he was snubbed in the BBC Sports Personality vote.

The boxer, who beat the former long-reigning champion Wladimir Klitschko in a thrilling contest in front of 90,000 people in April, was also the clear bookmakers’ favourite to land the Sports Personality Of The Year gong.

But the popular gold medal winning Olympian, who boasts 5.2 million followers on Instagram, failed to even make the top three despite two epic prize-fights this year.

The north Londoner, who was awarded an MBE for his 2012 Olympic heroics, again appears to have been slighted after missing out on a New Year honour.

Real name Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua, the British boxer of Nigerian descent moved to a perfect 20 knockouts from 20 fights, while winning a legion of fans for his brutal bouts – including the now infamous slug-fest at Wembley Stadium in April.

Pitted against the Ukrainian Klitschko, who along with his older brother Vitali ruled the heavyweight division for more than 10 years, Joshua endured a vicious onslaught where he was floored by the revitalised former champion and very nearly stopped.

The Bronze Bomber’ questioned Joshua’s identity and said he wasn’t born a champion, he was made a champion by his promoter Eddie Hearn.
But, Joshua has not taken kindly to this, responding: “Who the f*** is he? He’s a boxer not a psychologist…”

Joshua then compared their two resumes, pointing out that he knocked out Jason Gavern in his eleventh fight, whereas Wilder didn’t manage the same feat until his 32nd bout.

“The boy has had 50 fights and he fought Jason Gavern in his 30-something fight, I probably fought him in my 12th,” Joshua continued.

“We are different, my identity is strong.
“If they’re looking for weaknesses and gaps, then they need to stop looking over here because I’m solid.”

This comes as the pair are expected to meet in the ring at some point next year in a highly anticipated clash.

But first, they will both have to get through their respective bouts on the same card on December 23 in Saudi Arabia.

Joshua comes up against tricky southpaw Otto Wallin, who is best known for taking Tyson Fury the distance and cutting him badly.

Meanwhile, Deontay Wilder will fight Joseph Parker who is a former WBO heavyweight world champion and he has previously fought Joshua, losing by unanimous decision.

The undercard of the event will feature a number of other big names including Daniel Dubois vs Jarrell Miller, Dmitry Bivol vs Lyndon Arthur and Filip Hrgovic vs Mark De Mori among others.
