Tommy Fury wins on boxing comeback and calls out Jake Paul
The 26-year-old British cruiserweight, half-brother of former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, had last been in the ring when he beat KSI in Manchester in October 2023.
Prior to that Fury, who is now 11 fights unbeaten as a professional, won via split decision against KSI's fellow YouTuber Jake Paul.

And when asked after beating Hanjalic about a rematch with Paul, he said: 'Jake Paul's running scared. Hey, Jake, the hand is fixed now. If he wants to step inside the ring, I guarantee you, next time I will knock him spark out.'
Fury had been set to make a comeback by facing former UFC fighter Darren Till in January but the fight did not materialise, with the former claiming in December that the latter did 'not want to abide by professional boxing rules'.

Hearts target addresses Tynecastle links as he declares what's needed in next move
The Hearts transfer target has been speaking on his future and has named what he'll need from wherever he goes next Sign up to our Hearts newsletter Sign up Thank you for signing up!

Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... Daniel Arzani has addressed his future as Hearts look to sign the Australian international. The winger is currently on duty with the Socceroos but he is out of contract at Melbourne Victory, where has impressed. Arzani has rebuilt his stock at home after showing early promise on the international scene, prompting Manchester City to make a move, but loans like time at Celtic faltered amid injury issues. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad As the Evening News recently reported, Hearts have offered the Australian international a return to British football. Having already agreed to sign Greek wide player Alexandros Kyziridis and with Kazakhstani star Islam Chesnokov possibly on the way too, the Gorgie side could make it a third winger in the door at Tynecastle this summer. What Hearts transfer target said on future Now 26,Arzani is preparing for pastures new and has outlined his thoughts on the future amid Hearts interest. He says that wherever he ends up, he needs to be playing regularly. Arzani said: 'I think anyone now, any of the boys looking to move or off contract, that thought process will be in their head. It's a big deal, a World Cup. It's massive. Everyone wants to be a part of it. It is going to be really competitive and we have a lot of talent coming out of Australia as well. I think it is definitely important that if I go somewhere that I'll be playing week in, week out. I'm not sure what I am doing yet, what direction I am heading in but that's definitely part of the equation." Daniel Arzani verdict on previous European stint The winger has held nothing back on what he thought of his first crack at European football. He said recently: 'The stint that I had overseas, for me was super disappointing and felt like a massive, almost waste of time. I think what didn't help me was that I was constantly doing these five, six-month loan deals while being signed to City – that just doesn't work out. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'It's too difficult to go into teams and just start performing straight off after five months and get into a starting line-up. You're in and out and you're not really that important to the club. So I'm hoping that if I was to make that move over, it would be on a permanent transfer, and hopefully that way I'd be given more of a chance as well.' Former A-League star Tommy Oar recently said of the attacker: 'There's not been many young Australian players like him in the last kind of 10, 20, years, to be honest. I think he's so exciting every time he gets the ball. I do think if you look at kind of his trajectory, and you know why there's maybe been so many critics, I think that he's a little bit maybe a victim of his own early success. 'Because when he broke onto the scene, he was obviously mesmerizing to watch. He was so young, got into the Socceroos, went to the World Cup, and everybody put his level so high so early, that any time he didn't play that to that level, he was quickly criticised. I think that can be a little bit harsh, because especially over the last few months. I think that for somebody, if there was someone who'd never seen Daniel Arzani play, and you saw him play over the last few months, you'd be thinking, Who is this kid? He's unbelievable. 'The way he takes players on is so positive. So I do empathise with him a little bit in terms of the criticism that he cops, but at the same time, I think that he's matured a lot in recent times. This season, it was a really important season. Remember him obviously at Macarthur, things didn't work out for him the way he would have wanted. I think that this was a really decisive season. And so far, particularly in the second half of the season, he's kind of reminded everyone of how good he is.'

Sir David Attenborough's staggering earnings for last year revealed as 99 year old rakes in MILLIONS
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SIR David Attenborough is undoubtedly a national treasure – and he's earning millions to prove it. The 99-year-old nature-loving TV presenter and documentarian's income has been revealed after a staggering financial year and ahead of his latest show. 5 Sir David Attenborough has earned £4million in the past year Credit: PA 5 The star owns a 54% stake in his company, with his children also being shareholders Credit: PA Sir David's production company is revealed to have earned several million in the last year alone. According to Daily Star, accounts filed this week reveal he earned £4million, with a cash reserve on the business of £1.2million. He owns 54% of the David Attenborough (Productions) Limited firm, with his son Robert and daughter Susan also being shareholders. This comes after a string of lucrative deals as the face of British nature documentaries, with last year seeing Sky Nature releasing Secret World of Sound with David Attenborough, and the BBC releasing Mammals. This is not including his staggeringly impressive back catalogue of documentary series, including Dynasties, Planet Earth, Frozen Planet, and Seven Worlds One Planet. He has also released accompanying books on his shows, and supports multiple wildlife charities. His career dates back to 1953, with the star releasing dozens of projects every decade since, often resulting in public debate being sparked of the human effect on the animal world. Ocean With David Attenborough, which explores the depths of the sea and the creatures that inhabit it, was released last month on National Geographic and Disney+. The film delves into the wonderful world that lives beneath the water, including habitats that animals need to look after. In an age of ocean discovery, Attenborough aims to emphasise the ocean's vital importance, while also exposing the problems it faces. Sir David Attenborough steps back from narrating Planet Earth in show first as BBC announce major shake-up This includes graphic footage of how fishing practice bottom trawling is damaging the seabed and causing long-term damage to the ocean. The 90-minute movie aims to highlight opportunities for marine life recovery. He said of the film's release: "After almost 100 years on the planet, I now understand the most important place on Earth is not on land, but at sea." 5 The star has become the international face of wildlife documentaries Credit: PA 5 At 99 years old, the star continues to release multiple projects a year Credit: Getty

'I had to snort pure glucose': Inside BBC's outstanding 80s crime drama
It's a first-world problem but, while I'm at a chilly, damp Twickenham Studios on Valentine's Day, I can't help wishing the team from The Gold had invited me on set a couple of weeks later. When the Bafta-nominated first series finished, several of the criminals who had stolen and laundered the bullion from the 1983 Brink's-Mat heist – at the time, the biggest robbery in British history – were behind bars, yet DCI Brian Boyce and his compact task force were realising that half the gold remained unaccounted for. The second series rejoins the money-laundering trail in the late 1980s as it splits between the UK and the Isle of Man and the sunnier climes of Tenerife (which also doubles as South America and the British Virgin Islands). 'We'll be filming in Tenerife for eight weeks,' grins Hugh Bonneville, who returns as the dogged, incorruptible Boyce. 'It's a much bigger canvas this time – we shot in some buildings in London that clearly were built on Brink's-Mat money for season one, but this time you see the money leaking out into Tenerife and the tax havens. 'You begin to realise it funded drug imports and the beginnings of the ecstasy boom in the UK. The ripple effect of this one event in November 1983 is remarkable.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video I watch on as Boyce subjects a quivering suspect to a fearsome grilling – with retirement drawing near, the copper clearly intends to leave on a high, and Hugh clearly relished the opportunity to talk to Boyce himself, now in his mid-80s but still a formidable figure. 'Brian took me and [series creator] Neil Forsyth out to lunch as we were starting season one, so I reciprocated after it had been on. He likes to talk about the old days and took me through his entire career: he was on the squad that knocked down the door to get Ronnie and Reggie Kray! 'He was very courteous and thanked us for respecting the way they went about their work, which was very heartening. You get the sense he was a good leader who absolutely relied on teamwork.' Boyce and his team – returning coppers Nicki Jennings (Charlotte Spencer), Tony Brightwell (Emun Elliott) plus maverick newcomer Tony Lundy (Stephen Campbell Moore) – have two main quarries. One is Charlie Miller (Sam Spruell), a minor villain briefly glimpsed in series one waiting it out in Spain for the dust to settle. Now, though, he's back to claim his stash from its Cornish hiding place. 'It's a cat-and-mouse chase around the world as Charlie tries to use his ill-gotten gains to go legit, to be taken seriously and become a financial player,' says Sam. 'He has a strategy and he's very determined – no matter what goes wrong, he will make the best of it. He just keeps going despite the knockbacks, and as an actor I could relate to that, even admire him for it.' Miller, Sam concedes, doesn't quite have the capacity to realise his aspirations, and brings in Joshua Maguire's crooked lawyer Douglas Baxter to assist him. 'Baxter is the brains and has that class confidence and access Charlie lacks,' says Sam. 'They spend a lot of time being cross with each other, a bit like Laurel and Hardy.' Boyce's other prime target is the returning west-country gold smelter John Palmer (Tom Cullen) who, in contrast to Miller, works alone and is sitting pretty as the self-styled 'King of Tenerife'. 'Since he successfully defended himself in court [in season one], Palmer has a sense of freedom,' explains Tom. 'He's fitter, happier and wearing nicer suits. He can grow into his wealth now and enjoy it, having been driven all his life to better himself after growing up in immense poverty. Not a nice person, but fascinating to play.' Palmer's improved physical condition, though, is undermined by a deteriorating psychological one. 'Palmer has this innate confidence,' explains Tom. 'He's always assessing every option, like a chess player. But other factions are moving in on his empire so he's cutting deals and making alliances along with having to juggle his wife, children and mistresses, which comes with its stresses for him. 'I don't know how he had the energy for it all! The gold is infecting him as greed and power become complete obsessions.' More Trending The problems only mount as Palmer starts to sink into cocaine addiction – an experience, laughs Tom, almost as trying for the actor as it was for the character. 'The fake coke is pure glucose, and it absolutely f**ked me. We did one scene, the last of the day at about 8pm, where I had to snort this humongous line in Palmer's private plane, which is just ridiculous – everything in it is gold. I think I fell asleep about 1am.' He wags a finger at me – a final warning in a cautionary tale for the ages. 'Don't do glucose, kids!'
