What have they said?
Darren Till said in his press conference this week that he is spurred on from his cancelled fight against Tommy Fury.
Till said: "There's a lot of respect between me and Darren. We've fought on two shows together. Darren's a good lad.
"He's a solid competitor. I know he can fight, I know he's got a big pair of bollocks on him. I haven't really got a lot to say. I'm coming Friday.
"I think a lot of people get confused between respect and disrespect. I think a lot of people expect me to go mad [since the Tommy fight] but that's not the case.
"You've all known me for years now. I am one of the best strikers in the world and I'm coming for violence on Friday as always. It's going to be a hell of a show."

David Beckham's knighthood shows the unique - and utterly absurd - power of the British class system
When the unauthorised, warts-and-all biography of the Beckhams, The House of Beckham, came out last year, it was in the distinctive style of its author, Tom Bower, which is to say, incredibly mean. But it was quite short of warts, to be honest: of course, there were youthful indiscretions – David Beckham's Madrid years featured an alleged affair and an insufficient tip in a restaurant, and Posh once made a TV show that people didn't like. But the Beckhams of today were guilty of nothing greater than that they wanted a knighthood, and had done for a really long time. That was why, according to Bower, David volunteered to help in the Philippines after the 2013 Typhoon Haiyan, and why Victoria gave all her castoffs to the Chelsea Red Cross which raised some eyebrows at the time, just because the last imaginable thing you would need after being hit by a typhoon would be 78 pairs of cerise stilettos. That was why David had reportedly 'unleashed his foul-mouthed tirade' (to use the proper tabloid phrase) by email once his honour was rejected, calling the honours committee a 'bunch of cunts' and lambasting Katherine Jenkins because she got an OBE 'for what? Singing at the rugby and going to see the troops plus taking coke. F—ing joke.' Becks had a point. In the 2010s – if the highest honour is reserved for those who are nationally significant, inspirational, and have demonstrated commitment at the highest level - it was hard to think of anyone who did more football, in a more committed fashion and noticeable way, than he. If there's a tacit clause about charitable works, he had definitely done some of that, and if he hadn't done enough, they should have just produced some time sheets and minimum spend numbers, and he could have done more. If the real block on the honour was that Posh and Becks had thrones made of gold at their wedding in 1999, which apparently annoyed Prince Philip so much that he declined to sit on a throne at the subsequent Jubilee, well, it was surely time that everyone with a throne of any kind just got over themselves. As is almost always the case with anything connected to the British aristocracy, it was impossible to pick a side. The honours committee has a conception of seemly public behaviour, and generally speaking, they go the opposite way to any normal member of the British public, who don't mind 'foul-mouthed tirades' but do mind sycophancy and incompetence, and consequently would much prefer to see Danny Dyer knighted than almost any name on the honours list of the past five departing prime ministers. Yet at the same time, it is tragic to want an honour in the first place, given that it pretends access to the nobility yet is completely ersatz; a fake VIP room where the champagne is fizzy apple juice and the really important people are in a different building. The culture of class deference is sustained on ideas that cannot be said out loud or even directly beheld, because they are too stupid: such as, 'Some people are born better than others, because they have a lineage going back to William the Conqueror'; such as, 'Great wealth connotes some endogenous personal merit, but only if you came by it the right way, several centuries ago and with violence'. By definition, you can't enter that system late, and in the very act of trying, you reveal how little you understand it. Which is fine, because to understand it and still want it would make you ridiculous, yet to want it uncomprehendingly still looks pretty foolish. As the Beckhams finally get what they've always wanted, apparently, what does it say about the institutions that put so much energy into blocking them? Have they finally run out of the energy it takes to make their minute distinctions? Or have they decided that it somehow works for the preservation of the system, to dignify a person only after they have waited an undignified amount of time? This might be the final, unique power of the British class system – the ability to make everyone who goes anywhere near it, in any capacity, look absurd, and at the same time, everyone who objects to it, at whatever volume, sound wholemeal and worthy. It's the last act of national unification, in which we all look as bad as one another. Zoe Williams is a Guardian columnist

Uriah Rennie remembered as ‘epitome of a role model' after death at 65
Uriah Rennie, the Premier League's first black referee, has been remembered as a 'trailblazer' and the 'epitome of a role model' following his death at the age of 65. Rennie was born in Jamaica before moving to Sheffield aged six with his family and went on to oversee more than 300 games between 1997 and 2008, including 175 in the English top flight. Advertisement Once described as the 'fittest' match official in world football, Rennie recently revealed he was learning to walk again after a rare neurological condition left him paralysed from the waist down. After his death was announced on Sunday, Howard Webb, the Professional Game Match Officials Board Limited (PGMOL) chief refereeing officer, paid tribute to his former colleague. Webb said in a statement: 'Uri was not only a trailblazer who paved the way for many others after becoming the first black referee in the Premier League, he was a great person and a great referee who cared deeply about his community and helping people fulfil their potential. 'He was a strong influence on our refereeing group too, offering a calming presence and we shared many good times together. Advertisement 'An epitome of a role model, Uri was a valued member of the football family who has been taken from us too soon. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time. He will be sorely missed by us all but his legacy will live on.' Rennie started refereeing locally in 1979 before making history in 1997 when taking charge of his first Premier League match between Derby and Wimbledon, which he had to abandon because of a floodlight failure at Pride Park. The Premier League said on X: 'Uriah was a pioneering trailblazer whose legacy will live on, continuing to inspire future generations.' Rennie became a FIFA-listed referee in 2000 and joined the select group of professionals one year later before retiring in 2008. Advertisement Anti-discrimination charity Kick It Out said on X: 'We are deeply saddened to hear the heartbreaking news about Uriah Rennie. 'A trailblazer in every sense, he will always be a Premier League legend by becoming its first black referee, providing leadership, talent and visibility that proved inspirational to many. 'Uriah played a massive role in shaping the game as we know it today. Football should always be grateful to him.' In November 2023 martial arts expert Rennie was awarded an honorary doctorate by Sheffield Hallam University for his distinguished contributions to sport and his work with South Yorkshire communities. Advertisement He was last month installed as the chancellor of the university and was labelled by former Premier League referee Chris Foy as a 'real community hero in that part of the world'. Chris Foy, pictured, paid tribute to mentor and friend Uriah Rennie (Mike Egerton/PA) In an emotional interview with talkSPORT, Foy said: 'He was a gentleman, a gentle giant. He was a friend to me, a mentor to me, he was just a special person who put everybody first before himself. 'He was a real presence on the field and he was a real presence off the field, a true gentleman. If it was difficult for him, he never showed it because he was always grounded. He loved refereeing.' Another former Premier League referee, Dermot Gallagher, told Sky Sports: 'As a person he was humble, he was quiet, he was unassuming. But most importantly, he was kind.' Advertisement

Painting of train window view is voted best UK railway art
A piece of art depicting the Wiltshire countryside through a train window has been voted as the public's favourite UK railway-themed Landscape was painted by Eric Ravilious in the 1940s, showing the Westbury White Horse through a third-class train carriage. His wife Tirzah Garwood made the collage section of the piece, using sections of different watercolours her husband had painted while travelling on artwork beat 19 others, including the works of JMW Turner and David Shepherd, in a global Railway 200 poll held to mark two centuries of the modern railway. The winner was announced earlier, on the anniversary of the birth of the railway pioneer George Stephenson. Mr Ravilious' granddaughter Ella Ravilious said she was "thrilled" her grandfather's work had won."He was quite a picky artist," she said. "He would tear up lots of his watercolours that he wasn't happy with."She said it's "fitting" the piece is now marking 200 years of the railway because it is a composite picture of elements from several different railway lines."I'm thrilled that interest in Eric's work has sustained and that he is becoming even more popular," Ms Ravilious added. Heritage Minister Baroness Twycross said the artwork was a worthy victor."This evocative watercolour invites us all to experience a railway journey through an artist's eye, capturing a uniquely British perspective that resonates today. "Art offers us a powerful way to engage with our past and this selection of artworks tell the unique story of Britain's relationship with railways over 200 years."The 20 most popular paintings are available to view on the Art UK website until the end of the year."I encourage everyone to explore these magnificent works and find inspiration from our shared cultural heritage," Baroness Twycross added.
