Boxing legend Jeff Fenech loses it over fake auction
Video has emerged of boxing legend Jeff Fenech falling for a prank and losing it over a fake auction of his property. The social media clip captured the practical joke which was co-ordinated by The Block winner Ozman 'Oz' Abu Malik and boxer Billy Dib. Auctioneer Tom Panos and a group of actors posed as buyers outside Fenech's home while Oz and Dib watched the sale from a car, in the Instagram video titled 'Impromptu Auctions is back … this time it's the CELEBRITY EDITION!'. 'Today we're here for none other than the auction of this wonderful home,' Panos kicked off the auction. 'An opening bid offer to get us up and running today. You tell me what's your bid, sir, 2.5 (million) would have been a good bid 35 years ago.'

'Why are you going to my house?,' the 61-year-old asked Panos. The boxing legend can be seen throwing the auction signs, telling the crowd to 'f**k off' while the auction continues. 'Get away from my house!' Fenech yelled. The former world champion was told by one of the bidders that his house is for sale. Fenech confronted Panos and told him 'Don't make me do something bad'. 'How's my house for sale?' Fenech asked. 'How's my house for sale?! Don't you think I'd know if my house was for sale?' Panos replied he had been given instructions. A furious Fenech tells Panos he has 'been given the wrong instructions' and threatens to call the police. The crowd intervened, with one man in a suit telling the boxing icon they had been given instructions by the bank. 'Are you crazy? They've given you the wrong address,' Fenech said. 'How's my house for sale? It's my house. I own it totally. How's it for sale!?!' The auction continued with bids reaching as high as $6.5 million while Fenech remarked the house is worth over $9.5 million. Fenech then pushed Panos and bidders off his property as the auction closed. Oz and Dib then hopped out of a car and revealed it was a prank. Oz apologised to Fenech and said Dib wanted to get him back, to which he jokingly replied 'He got me well'. Dib said Fenech had always been a part of his career. 'We've had an amazing journey together,' he said. 'He's pranked so many people along the way, and today he finally got pranked.' Fenech replied 'the pranker gets pranked'. Oz and his best friend Omar were crowned the winners of The Block: Tree Change in 2022. Their property sold for $5,666,666 and took home a record-breaking profit of $1.6 million. Oz runs his building company Zenith, and produces social media content on the side.

Furious Aussie boxing legend Jeff Fenech storms out of his house in his underwear and tells his wife to call the cops
A group of local pranksters almost got more than they bargained for after targeting Australian boxing icon Jeff Fenech by staging a fake auction outside his Sydney home. The practical jokers, led by The Block winner Ozman 'Oz' Abu Malik and former boxer Billy Dib, arrived at Fenech's home with an auctioneer and a group of actors posing as buyers in tow. The crew set up realty signs on the lawn before the auction got underway. Malik and Dib watched with glee from a car as 61-year-old Fenech stormed out of his home in his undies to confront the hired auctioneer on his own front lawn. 'Why did you come to my house for?' demanded Fenech as he started dismantling the signage. 'F**k it off. The boxing legend threw auction signs as he demanded to know what was going on 'Don't make me do something bad... How is my my house for sale?' The auctioneer replied: 'Sir, I have been given instructions.' Fenech then ripped a document from the auctioneer's hand in anger. 'Well you've been given the wrong instructions!' The four-time world champion then told his daughter Kayla to ring the police. 'How's my house for sale? How's my house for sale?' yelled a bewildered Fenech. 'Don't you think I'd know if my house was for sale?' Moments later Fenech took his threats up a notch. '... I know you're videoing me, but in a minute you'll be having a little rest,' said Fenech. Fenech eventually pushed the auctioneer off his property and onto the road The auction continued with the bidding. 'Four's the bid. Four five. Here it goes,' yelled the auctioneer. 'Five million's the bid...' An increasingly agitated Fenech paced around. 'It's worth over nine million,' he interjected. The auctioneer grew louder as fake bidders pushed the price up above six million. 'Six point five once! Six point five twice!' he yelled. Fenech snapped and grabbed the auctioneer and started pushing him onto the road. Dib then rushed out of the car to let Fenech know it was a prank, giving his friend a bear hug as the actors and crew clapped. Moments later Fenech had calmed down and was even smiling about the elaborate stitch-up. 'He got me well,' admitted Fenech. Dib explained that Fenech had always been a part of his boxing career. 'We've had an amazing journey together,' he said. 'He's pranked so many people along the way, and today he finally got pranked.' Fenech replied to Dib 'the pranker gets pranked'.
