Daily Mail​6 days ago

Tyson Fury has been making the most of his retirement from boxing as he whisked his wife Paris off on a luxurious European trip.
The couple kicked off their holiday with a stay in Milan and Lake Como and have since moved on to Monaco and the South of France.
The pair looked on cloud nine in snaps from the trip where they were seen enjoying a romantic boat ride in Monte Carlo.
Paris looked incredible in a white striped mini dress as she and Tyson enjoyed a drink with a stunning view of the Mediterranean.
During their time in the city, the couple also went to see 50 Cent perform, with Tyson sharing some of the gig on his Instagram.

On an evening out, Paris cut a glamorous figure in a gold sleveeless midi dress with a tasselled detail and matching heels.
After Monaco, Tyson and Paris went over to the village of Valbonne in the South of France.
Alongside a snap of the couple seeing the sights, Tyson wrote: 'My long term lover @ParisFurfy1 been a blast baby 2025 SOF'.
Tyson also took time away from the fun-filled getaway to address rumours he could be making a return to the boxing ring.
In a video, the 36-year-old announced: 'Good morning people, a little view for you from the balcony.
'I hear a lot of talk that the Gypsy King is returning to boxing and I've got a question to ask: For what?
'What would I return for? More boxing belts? Won 22 of them.
'I've been rumped and that's it, fair play to them they've their use with me. I'm happy, contented with what I've done, what I've achieved, what I've accomplished. I've been around the world and back again.
'And here we are, this is what retirement looks like for me. I'm retired and I'm in no rush to come back to boxing - I've got nothing to prove to anybody and nothing to return for. God bless everybody!'
Tyson's last outing in the ring came in December when he suffered a second successive defeat to Ukrainian fighter Oleksandr Usyk.
The following month, Tyson took to social media to announce his official retirement from the sport.
But he has since shared videos of him back in training, with fans wondering whether they may one day get to see the much anticipated Fury vs Anthony Joshua bout.
Fury however has continually denied there could be a possible return to the ring - with the 36-year-old seemingly happy in retirement.
Just a matter of days before they jetted off to Como, Paris and Tyson pulled out all the stops as they threw a massive party to celebrate John Fury's 60th birthday.
The boxing legend's father hit the milestone on Thursday, which he celebrated at the the surprise get together at Champneys Mottram Hall in Cheshire.
Paris uploaded some photos and videos of the celebration on Instagram, with John being caught by surprise as he entered a silent, crowded room before the guests burst into song to wish him a happy birthday.
Tyson and Paris dressed to impress, with the boxer donning a slick white suit with flowers on it, while his wife dazzled in a gold dress.
The couple's seven children were too in attendance for John's party.

Jamaican boxing legend Mike McCallum dies aged 68

Jamaican boxing legend Mike McCallum, who was a three-weight world champion during the 1980s and 1990s, has died at the age of 68. McCallum died suddenly near his home in Las Vegas on Saturday (31 May), with the Jamaica Observer reporting that he was on his way to the gym when he fell ill and pulled his car off the road. He was later found unresponsive and later pronounced dead. Known 'The Bodysnatcher' due to his vicious punching ability, especially to the body, McCallum was the first Jamaican to become a boxing world champion – eventually winning titles at junior middleweight, middleweight and light heavyweight between 1984 and 1995. After retiring in 1997 with 49 wins, five losses and one draw from 55 fights, he was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2003. Jamaica's sport minister Olivia Grange wrote on Instagram: "It is with utter and complete sadness that I learned of the death of Jamaica's three-time World Boxing Champion Michael McKenzie McCallum. "I express my personal condolences to his mother, siblings and his children. On behalf of the Ministry of Sport, I take this opportunity to extend our sympathies to the family and friends of this legendary Jamaican. "We hope they find strength in this time of bereavement." His most famous fights came against the likes of Michael Watson, Steve Collins, James Toney and Roy Jones Jr, having turned professional in 1981 after winning welterweight gold for Jamaica at the 1978 Commonwealth Games in Edmonton. McCallum became world champion when he beat Ireland's Sean Mannion at Madison Square Garden in New York in 1984, claiming the WBA junior middleweight crown, and won his first 32 fights in the paid ranks, including successful title defences against Milton McCrory and Don Curry. His first defeat came in Italy against Sumbu Kalambay in 1988 when trying to add the WBA middleweight title to his collection but he did claim that belt a year later by earning a split-decision win over Herol Graham in the Royal Albert Hall in London. Successful defences came against Collins in Boston and Watson back at the Royal Albert Hall before avenging his Kalambay defeat in Monaco. December 1991 saw the first of a trilogy of fights against Toney over the course of his remaining career – with a split-decision draw and majority-decision loss in the space of nine months twice denying him the IBF middleweight belt. He did win a world title in a third weight division as a 38-year-old in 1994 when Jeff Harding was defeated for the WBC light heavyweight title but lost it to Fabrice Tiozzo a year later. His career then ended with losses to Jones Jr and Toney, the latter at cruiserweight. McCallum was hugely technically gifted as fighter and is undoubtedly the greatest Jamaican boxer of all time, as well as one of the best of his era, who leaves a huge legacy behind. 'Rest in Peace to the legendary Mike 'The Body Snatcher' McCallum,' read a tribute from the WBA. 'Former WBA world champion and one of the most technically gifted fighters of his era. Thank you for the fights, the lessons, and the greatness."

Leaked medical report 'proves Imane Khelif is a biological male' in bombshell claim about Olympic boxer

Results from boxer Imane Khelif's sex test at the 2023 World Championships have reportedly emerged, with the medical report allegedly suggesting the controversial Olympic champion is a biological male, according to various outlets. The alleged results comes less than two days after World Boxing ruled that Khelif would need to undergo sex screening to be eligible for any future appearances in female events. Khelif won a women's boxing gold medal representing Algeria boxing at the Paris Games. Khelif was deemed eligible to compete in France despite having more than a year's previous knowledge about the the test, with IOC president Thomas Bach previously questioning the test's legitimacy. 'Chromosome analysis reveals male karyotype,' the document, seen by 3 Wire Sports via Telegraph Sport, states. The results reportedly have a date of being collected of March 17, 2023 - the same year that Khelif was disqualigied by the International Boxing Association (IBA), the former governing body for the sport for allegedly failing gender eligibility tests. The alleged document is marked with the letterhead of Dr Lal PathLabs in New Delhi, a laboratory which is accredited by the American College of Pathologists and certified by the International Organisation for Standardisation. The report was initially published by the journalist Alan Abrahamson, who first brought reports of Khelif's alleged failed gender eligibility test to public attention at the Paris Games. Mail Sport has contacted Khelif's representatives for comment. Khelief has previously stated that she planned to defend her gold medal at the Los Angeles Olympics in three years time. World Boxing does have some Olympic authority, as they have been announced to provisionally run testing for the Los Angeles games, with any person over 18 required to undergo PCR testing to determine their sex. The governing body said the PCR test is a laboratory technique used to detect specific genetic material, with the SRY gene revealing the presence of the Y chromosome, which is an indicator of biological sex. The test can be a be conducted by nasal/mouth swab, saliva or blood. The governing body said the testing will be part of a new policy on 'Sex, Age and Weight', which it claims will a safe and competitive playing field. World Boxing revealed the contents of a letter sent to the Algerian Boxing Federation, confirming Khelif is unable to compete in the female category at the Eindhoven Box Cup or any World Boxing event under she undergoes sex testing. 'Imane Khelif may not participate in the female category at the Eindhoven Box Cup, 5-10 June 2025 and any World Boxing event until Imane Khelif undergoes genetic sex screening in accordance with World Boxing's rules and testing procedures,' the letter read. 'In accordance with the World Boxing Statutes, amendments to the Competition Rules are typically made by Congress. However, under special or emergency circumstances, the World Boxing Executive Board holds the authority to make immediate amendments when a rule is deemed no longer functional or when evolving conditions necessitate a change. 'In May 2025, the Executive Board exercised this authority and adopted new eligibility criteria for participation in sex-specific boxing categories. These new eligibility rules were developed with the express purpose of safeguarding athletes in combat sports, particularly given the physical risks associated with Olympic-style boxing. 'Please be advised that, per World Boxing policy, '…in the event the athlete's sex certification is challenged by the athlete's federation or by World Boxing, the athlete shall be ineligible to compete until the dispute is resolved…' Khelif was not the only controversial boxer in Paris, as Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting also won a gold medal in women's boxing despite having been banned by the IBA in 2023.
