Dillian Whyte has rubbished claims that he priced himself out of the chance to fight Anthony Joshua. Promoter Eddie Hearn said on Wednesday that talks between the British heavyweight rivals had fallen through. Joshua is eyeing a 12 August bout in order to stay sharp ahead of a potential December clash with Deontay Wilder, and Whyte – whom Joshua knocked out in 2015 – was the preferred opponent. Hearn said an offer was made to Whyte but the 35-year-old’s camp made it clear that the price was “nowhere near their expectations”. However, Whyte was responded by saying that no negotiations took place over the proposed bout. “They’re talking rubbish,” Whyte said, according to the Daily Mail. “All I got, after Eddie talked publicly and often about making me an offer to fight AJ, was a very short email late in the evening on Friday 2 June. “I absolutely 100 per cent want to fight AJ and called Eddie to discuss the offer but couldn’t get hold of him. I messaged him too. I didn’t hear back from him so I sent him an email to confirm I wanted the fight. “I didn’t turn down the offer or propose a counter-offer. All I did was ask normal questions on his three-line email so-called offer. “Even before I emailed, Eddie was already saying publicly that his offer was unacceptable. So, why make it in the first place? "Let’s be very clear here, I told him I wanted the fight, I didn’t turn it down and I didn’t price myself out and in fact have not had a single discussion about it with Matchroom since the ‘offer’ and I didn’t make any demands." Agit Kabayel has already been linked with Joshua while Jarrell Miller, who was due to box ‘AJ’ in 2019, has also been linked.

LONDON (AP) — Every summer, British royals and thousands of others get dressed to the nines for Royal Ascot, a glamorous annual horse racing event that dates back to 1711, when Queen Anne founded Ascot Racecourse in southern England.

Saudi Arabia has been more active than ever in the transfer window this summer, and Liverpool fans thought one of their star players had become the latest to join the Saudi Pro League. There was panic among supporters on social media after the transfer of “Mohamed Salah” to Al-Adalah was announced this week. However, luckily for them, it was a different Mohamed Salah and not the one that’s been so key to their success over recent years. A load of players have been tempted by Saudi cash in recent weeks, with Karim Benzema, N’Golo Kante and Ruben Neves among the big names to move in recent weeks.

Fans voiced their relief on social media after seeing “Mohamed Salah” trending and fearing the worst. One wrote: “For a second I thought it was Liverpool’s Salah.” Another concerned fan wrote: “Don’t play with me man.” “My heart jumped,” another said. Needless to say it's not the same Salah but a footballer with the same name. The good news for Liverpool fans is that Salah signed a contract last year which will keep him at the club until 2025. The Egyptian has played 305 games for Liverpool since joining from Roma in 2017. He scored 186 goals in that time and helped Liverpool to a Premier League title and a Champions League in his six seasons with the club. Have your say in our news democracy.
