And the YouTube star, 25, has claimed it all started at a random charity basketball game last year.

The pair were playing on opposite teams when Mayweather ‘put hands on him’, which Paul called ‘disrespectful’.

Paul said he’s ‘never forgotten and never forgiven him’ for it.

From there, Paul concocted a plan: To wind up Mayweather, 43, so much at a fan meet and greet on Fanmio that the Las Vegas legend had no option but to fight him.

After initially intending to just ‘chirp a bit’ during the call, Paul joked: “The next thing you know, I’m talking s*** to the greatest boxer on the planet.”

Addressing Mayweather, Paul said: “I got a question for you: You down to fight me?”

If Dereck Chisora were to knock off Oleksandr Usyk, an Anthony Joshua-Chisora clash could become a big event in the United Kingdom. Joshua isn’t the heavyweight champion Chisora wants to fight, though. London’s Chisora would prefer to challenge Tyson Fury for his WBC title, if Fury retains that belt long enough for Chisora to get a shot at it.

Fury has beaten Chisora twice, first by unanimous decision and then by technical knockout. Chisora believes, however, that upsetting Usyk would warrant a third fight against Fury. Tyson is unbelievable – the only man who doesn’t have a defeat on his record,” Chisora said. “It would be a great fight with ‘The Gypsy King’ because he has always promised me a third fight. He owes it to me. We speak every day. He always says he wants to give me that fight.

Fury first must get through his third fight against Alabama’s Deontay Wilder, whom Fury beat by seventh-round technical knockout to win the WBC belt February 22 at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The targeted date/site for Fury-Wilder III is December 19 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, the new home of the NFL’s Raiders.

The 36-year-old Chisora is in camp for his rescheduled bout with Usyk, the former undisputed cruiserweight champion. Usyk-Chisora has been reset for October 31 at a venue to be announced. Ukraine’s Usyk and Zimbabwe’s Chisora were supposed to meet May 23 at O2 Arena in London, but that event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Powers that be had set Dec. 19 as the date for the third clash between Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder, but that plan, never set in stone, has shifted. Too crowded a date, it was determined, what with many major college football contests being set for that Saturday. The re-set date is still up in the air, promoter Bob Arum told me Wednesday, but he still likes Allegiant Stadium, the new Las Vegas venue where the NFL’s Raiders play.

First, he told watchers that Mark Breland, the nicest man in boxing, has been shooed out of the Deontay Wilder squad. You recall that Breland showed empathy galore when he threw in the towel, as his guy Wilder got manhandled by Tyson Fury in February. Wilder took offense, and said his team all knows he’s a go out on my shield” type. After deliberation, word came that a change is wanted. Malik Scott will perhaps get a larger role, or maybe a bigger name will be ushered in to augment Jay Deas’ training efforts.

As for the rematch, given the ever-changing football schedule multiple sources say it won’t happen until 2021, hopefully with some socially adjusted seating,” Kriegel announced. I messaged him, double checking, and he verified the can is likely getting kicked to next year for a third Fury-Wilder collision.

Noting the current state of America’s handling of the pandemic, I’m thinking many of you are not at all surprised if and when it gets announced, officially, that the third Fury-Wilder fight will be a New Year extravaganza. The President is battling COVID, and the NFL is in worry mode, having to reschedule a Steelers-Titans game due to COVID concerns, and then Patriots quarterback Cam Newton testing positive, too.

However, due to the ongoing pandemic it remains unclear whether fans will be allowed in attendance in the US. This is crucial as, without a crowd, the organisers lose out on ticket sales worth upwards of $15million. There have been ideas mooted about taking the fight overseas, though Fury’s promoter Bob Arum recently told talkSPORT they are struggling to get firm guarantees from any country’s health minister that it would definitely be able to happen.

As a result, he’s said they are sticking with their original plan of staging Fury vs Wilder 3 on December 19 at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The idea would be for the new 65,000-capacity stadium to host 10,000-15,000 socially distanced fans. That’s what we’re moving ahead on, on all fronts, with the security, with the virus, and everything, Arum told ESPN.

If the fight were to take place in China, it would occur at the Cotai Arena within The Venetian complex on the Macao Strip. The venue holds around 15,000 people. And given that China’s borders have now reopened to several European countries, it’s possible of a substantial crowd presence in Macau should they stage the fight there.

Wilder vs Fury is expected to be the biggest fight to take place anywhere in the world in the remainder of 2020. Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder have already met twice for the World Boxing Council , Ring magazine and lineal heavyweight championships of the world, and produced a thrilling bout on each occasion.

Their first meeting – soon after Fury’s astonishing comeback from mental health issues and weighing 400lbs – ended in a controversial draw at Staples Center in Los Angeles in December 2018. This despite Fury having to get off the floor twice. The Gypsy King’ made no mistake second time round though as he battered Wilder to a seventh-round TKO in Las Vegas in February 2020 the first defeat of Wilder’s professional career.

There was much surprise given the manner of his defeat that Wilder immediately exercised his contractual right to a third fight. There is much still to be decided before it happens, but here is everything we know so far about their next huge showdown.

Wilder vs Fury date, time and venue

Fury’s co-promoter Bob Arum is still hoping the bout can go ahead on Saturday December 19 in his preferred destination of the new $2billion Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL’s Las Vegas Raiders. The facility appeared to have been ruled out as a fight venue in early August when the team announced it would be closed to fans for the entirety of the 2020 football season.

Top Rank supremo Arum though remains hopeful the bout will be able to go ahead there with a crowd of between 10,000 and 15,000 spectators attending inside a stadium which can hold up to 65,0000. That’s what we’re moving ahead on, on all fronts, with the security, with the virus, and everything, he told ESPN.

We’re talking with everybody here in town, with the Raiders. So we’re optimistic that we’ll be able to do the event in Nevada, in Las Vegas.

Wilder vs Fury TV channel and live stream

Wilder vs Fury will be another joint pay-per-view production in the United States between ESPN and Fox Sports. ESPN has a five-fight deal with Fury worth a reputed £80million while Fox has a deal with Wilder’s promoter, Al Haymon’s Premier Boxing Champions.

Meanwhile the fight is likely to be shown by BT Sport Box Office in the UK BT have shown all of Fury’s recent fights and have a strong relationship and contract with Warren’s Queensberry Promotions.

If the fight still lands in Las Vegas on December 19, it is likely ring walks would start not before 0800 Pacific Time on Saturday December 19, 2020 which would be 2300 Eastern Time and 0400 GMT on Sunday December 20 in the UK.
