Nigerian-born British boxer, Anthony Joshua, has revealed he won £650 when Dillian Whyte knocked out Lucas Browne. The IBF and WBA (Super) champion is a long-time rival of Whyte’s and the pair have clashed once before in their pro careers.

 There is talk of a second fight between the two Brits, and speculation has only increased after Whyte ran through former world champion Browne on Saturday night in London.

 The feud between Whyte and Joshua stretches back into their amateur days and the two have always kept a close eye on each other. Joshua was watching Whyte’s fight with Browne from his home and collected a huge reward for correctly guessing when his old rival would finish the bout.

 A crunching left hook ended Browne’s resistance after six rounds of punishment and Joshua shared on Snapchat a screenshot of his winnings. It seems Joshua may have a crystal ball lying around somewhere, because he managed to correctly predict when Whyte would knock Browne out.

 Whyte and Matchroom promoter, Eddie Hearn, were on hand to discuss the possibility of a second Joshua encounter. Hearn, who promoters both fighters, revealed that if Joshua had his way, he would face Whyte in his next bout. “Like Dillian said, they’ve just got this thing [between them].

 “If you said to Anthony, ‘Tell me who you want to fight next’, he’d say ‘Give me Whyte’. Every time. “Which is mad really. It used to be hatred, but they got each other’s respect in that first fight. They enjoyed it and want to do it again.”

Despite Whyte’s eagerness to get in the ring again with Joshua, the 29-year-old will first chase a fight with WBC champion Deontay Wilder. “At some point this year, the WBC will order a mandatory,” Hearn revealed. “We’ve offered Wilder $3m plus US TV. That’s around $4m. I reckon he made about $2.5m against Luis Ortiz''.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

  The NBA has suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard  Joshua Primo   for four games   ... after it says it found he exposed his private parts to multiple women. The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions. Dr. Cauthen's attorney,  Tony Buzbee , alleged the Spurs were aware of Primo's actions, but didn't take action. Cauthen went on to file

The pair were both the scoresheet as the Blues thrashed Middlesbrough 6-1 at Stamford Bridge in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final to boo their place at Wembley.
