(MF Pro) Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing will present an addendum to Saudi Arabia’s event management/entertainment company Sela on Thursday detailing the requirements necessary to bring the anticipated Anthony Joshua-Tyson Fury heavyweight showdown to New York’s Madison Square Garden on November 20, BoxingScene has learned. In the addendum, Matchroom won’t budge from its position of not permitting the new Zuffa Boxing to promote the bout, leaving Sela as the likely compromise choice to preside over the event. The addendum’s list of requests has not been fully disclosed, but BoxingScene has learned that, in addition to standard contractual inclusions addressing…
Finish 17th in the Premier League and it does not usually lead to luxury. However, for Tottenham Hotspur, things are rather different. The Lilywhites have climbed out of the rubble and now look like a picture of full health. Sandro Tonali, Mateus Fernandes, Jan Paul van Hecke, Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi have all arrived as marquee signings. Yet, despite those impressive additions, Spurs are yet to add to their attack. There is now just a week and a half left of the transfer window and time is of the essence in that regard. A striker is required. Harry Kane…
Crouchy’s got his crystal ball out…. Can you believe that the Premier League returns this weekend already? It feels like only weeks ago we were hydrating every 22-and-a-half minutes (by nipping to the fridge for another bevvy), nodding along with Wazza on the artistic merits of the World Cup half-time show, and assessing the hand-to-hand combat talents of Argentine midfielders… because it was.But now we’re all pre-seasoned out. It’s time for new kits, new signings and the new season – and Peter Crouch is all in on it. Here’s the big man’s take on what to expect in the next…
Zion Suzuki believes Aston Villa is the “right club to start my first journey in the Premier League”. The goalkeeper completed a £30m (€35m) move to Villa Park from Parma on Wednesday, with Emiliano Martinez expected to leave the club this summer. The 23-year-old made 22 appearances for Parma last term, keeping six clean sheets and recording a goals prevented figure of -0.63. Suzuki could make his Villa debut when Unai Emery’s side begin their 2026-27 Premier League campaign on Sunday against Brighton. The Japan international is excited at the prospect of playing in the Premier League and competing for trophies…
Bangladesh Cricket Board President Tamim Iqbal has confirmed that this season’s edition of the Bangladesh Premier League will not be held citing various issues from previous seasons including allegations of match-fixing and corruption.“I don’t think so. The BPL will not happen this year,” Tamim told reporters at an event in Mirpur.“If I was a player, I’d be disheartened too,” Tamim added.ALSO READ: Sam Curran to undergo groin surgery, misses out on Test return“But they also know that this tournament should be staged in a way that the BCB can be proud of.

“I wouldn’t normally reply to you but just to put your insignificant pea brain at rest, our Addendum sent to SELA includes NOT ONE of the points mentioned in your tweet 😂” said Hearn on X to Glaser. The “pea brain” line is entertaining, but the distinction Hearn made may be more important. He only said those items were not included in the addendum sent to Sela, leaving open the possibility that Matchroom raised them elsewhere. That becomes interesting when compared with Pugmire’s BoxingScene article, which separated the Fury-Joshua addendum from earlier communications between Matchroom and Sela. The article from…
BoxingScene reports that Matchroom wants Sela to oversee the production instead of Zuffa Boxing, payment of Joshua’s outstanding purse from the Kristian Prenga fight, and standard guarantees covering tickets, security and transportation. The proposed package may also give Matchroom considerable influence over the undercard, with Jesse Rodriguez-Christian Medina, Jack Catterall-Keyshawn Davis and Murat Gassiev-Jarrell Miller among the unsigned fights being discussed. Teremoana Jnr and Odel Kamara may receive preliminary places. Separate communications reviewed by BoxingScene included Matchroom requests involving payments for darts, snooker, the Ronnie O’Sullivan Academy and previous boxing events. An official insisted those items are not part of…

“This is the time to put up or shut up. If he doesn’t wanna stand on what he’s said about my style, he’ll have to pay in the ring.” Hernandez and Veron participated in Wednesday’s media workout for the Teofimo Lopez versus Rolando “Rolly” Romero pay-per-view card in Las Vegas. “This is one thing to call the devil, but it’s another thing when he arrives.” The size difference gives Hernandez an immediate advantage. He is the heavier, more imposing fighter and may have enough power to prevent Veron from taking chances at close range. Veron does not believe those physical…
