News about Wladimir Klitschko

The tennis world was rocked this week when it was revealed that leading men's player Jannik Sinner tested positive for a banned substance twice earlier this year. Sinner, 23, tested positive for the anabolic steroid clostebol during an event in Indian Wells on March 10 and then failed a test for the same substance eight days later. But the world No1 has escaped a ban after his explanation for the positive results was accepted following a lengthy, behind-closed-doors investigation.

SIMON JORDAN Tyson Fury has the chance to become the undisputed, greatest heavyweight of his generation when he takes on Oleksandr Usyk this weekend. He has already proven himself to be a brilliant boxer. Someone who lifted the heavyweight division, scattered the belts and gave everyone an opportunity when he beat Wladimir Klitschko. But a lot of the time he's not the easiest to like, despite the apparent popularity of Netflix's At Home With The Furys. That doesn't mean you can't compartmentalise it though. I can separate Fury's behaviour from his ability - as an athlete he's fantastic, as a statesman in sport not so much.

UEFA Euro 2024 will take place this summer in Germany starting on June 14. The tournament will play 51 games during a one month period with the penultimate match to be held in Berlin on July 14. Throughout the one month long competition games will be played across ten world-class stadiums in Germany. Here is your guide to the ten Germany Euro stadiums with hosting duties this summer.

Alex Leapai Junior (pictured left and right with his dad Alex Senior) has been boxing for years, and has been tipped by a respected judge to be one of Australia's best heavyweight fighters. On The Gathering Fight Night card, he'll be squaring off against New Zealand's Joe Ageli, as well as a slew of former footy stars stepping into the ring on Wednesday night.

Tyson Fury has been involved in some of the most important boxing tournaments in history, winning a number of bumper paychecks along the way. Fury has earned a substantial sum of money from dethroning Wladimir Klitschko to his unforgettable trilogy with Deontay Wilder, according to his net worth of £130 million prior to his crossover with Francis Ngannou last year. Despite being upbeat about the former UFC champion's knockdowns that culminated in him being knocked down before clinging on for a narrow points win, Fury's bank balance was also good on Friday.

One pair of tickets for the highly awaited Last Night Of The Proms, an event for concertgoers who have attended other concerts in the Royal Albert Hall series, sold for £462 each, much more than double the £47 face value. In the West End production of Harry Potter And The Cursed Child, there were two tickets in the stalls at £725 per seat, a mark-up of more than 5%. Taylor Swift of Wembley, boxer Anthony Joshua facing Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley, Cirque du Soleil, Ed Sheeran ; whatever the client required, Chenery-Woods, or more specifically her company, TQ Tickets (the TQ standing for Ticket Queen) was the woman with the answer. Chenery-Woods, a 54-year-old mother of three, did indeed capture her particular niche in the lucrative, but morally and legally tumultuous world of ticket selling in a two-year period.

On Friday night, Anthony Joshua knocked Francis Ngannou down for the first time in his career, finishing the former UFC heavyweight champion in the second round of their highly awaited match in Saudi Arabia. Following Ngannou's debut in the sport, many fans believed the match was too close to call - having gone the distance with world champion Tyson Fury. So, with the above in mind, Mail Sport selected the remainder of AJ and Fury's known opponents, Kevin Johnson, Dillian Whyte, Otto Wallin, and Wladimir Klitschko, to whom they will support in the Battle of Britain contest.

In the NRL world, 120kg Alex Leapai Junior (pictured with Payne Haas, right) has a lot of hype, but the youngster has also been named as Australia's best heavyweight boxing prospect in 50 years. In 2014, his father, Alex Senior (pictured together, left) defeated Wladimir Klitschko for the world heavyweight championship.

According to John Fury, nothing will compare to the night Tyson defeated Wladimir Klitschko, and that the Gypsy King is only facing Oleksandr Usyk to 'close people's mouths.' Following the undisputed title match in the Saudi Arabia, the Gypsy King would defend his WBA belt against Usyk on February 17 and try to walk away with the Ukrainian's WBA, IBF, and WBO crowns. However, John says winning all the marbles against Usyk would not come close to the night Tyson dethroned Klitschko became the world heavyweight champion for the first time.

We are all set for one of the best war cards in history for the Day of Reckoning. Multiple current and former world champions are scheduled in a enthralling lineup of eight fights. This includes Anthony Joshua vs. Otto Wallin, Deontay Wilder vs. Joseph Parker, and Daniel Dubois vs. Jarrell Miller, with six of the eight bouts being heavyweight clashes.

According to Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is failing as a war leader and will soon be out of office. In an interview with Swiss outlet '20 minuten', Klitschko, a former top boxer and brother of heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, confessed that Ukraine's counteroffensive had stalled and Zelensky is now 'paying for his mistakes.' He said he was not surprised Zelensky's popularity has decreased compared to that of the army, because 'people see who is efficient and who isn't.' And there were many hopes... People were still worried about being less prepared for the war.'

In reaction to Russia's continuing invasion of Ukraine that began in February last year, Wladimir Klitschko has asked that Russian and Belarus athletes be barred from the Olympics. The former world boxing champion slammed the International Olympic Committee for allowing athletes from both countries to compete under neutral representation.

Anthony Joshua has revealed why he and his mother, Robert, survived at the age of 34, and that any prospective spouse would have a difficult time convincing him to leave. Joshua, who moved back to his mother's two bedroom ex-council flat in 2017, defeated Robert Helenius in August and is looking for his next fight ahead of 2024. The British boxer spoke to Louis Theroux about his close relationship with his family and warned prospective girlfriends that they will have to compete with his mother, Yeta Odusanya.

Eddie Hearn has shared how he turned down the chance to sign Tyson Fury after the Gypsy King turned up overweight and'sweeping' to their meeting in 2017. Fury defeated Wladimir Klitschko in November 2015 to become the world's best heavyweight champion, but the team sadly had to pull out of the sport soon after. Fury was struggling with his mental stability during his two-and-a-half years of boxing, sinking into depression, and ballooning to 28 inches.

Since deciding to face Francis Ngannou in October, British heavyweight contender Dave Allen believes that Tyson Fury should be stripped of his titles. Fury is the current WBC champion and has been named as the lineal champion after defeating long-serving heavyweight king Wladimir Klitschko in 2015. He seemed to be poised to face Oleksandr Usyk in an undisputed match earlier this year, but talks broke down after Fury requested a 70% split of the purse in his favor and began setting deadlines for his opponent to accept.

There's a home advantage. Then there's the adulation of a whole nation's machismo race. Population: 130 million. In a crammed stadium of patriotic hysteria, sixty thousand of them roared on their idol. When speaking to Mail Sport, Canelo Alvarez, the defender of the controversial world super-middleweight championship and also the admiration of Mexican manhood, puts Saturday night into perspective for English challenger John Ryder.

Some believe life begins at 30, but for Hayden Panettiere, it was an opportunity for her to reclaim her sense of self after her twenties of heroin and alcohol addiction. The actress, who is now 33, has embarked on a new chapter in residential rehabilitation, where she beat an alcohol use that began when she first began working on hit US musical drama Nashville in 2012. Following the birth of daughter Kaya in 2014 - her only child with former spouse Wladimir Klitschko - with postnatal depression, Panettiere had to switch to highly addictive painkillers.

Wladimir Klitschko has accused Olympic chief Thomas Bach of "serving Russia's colors and interests." Despite the war in Ukraine, the International Olympic Committee reiterated that Russian and Belarusian athletes should be allowed to participate in international sport under a neutral flag on Tuesday. The IOC president Bach said a final decision on their participation in Paris 2024 had not been reached and would be made at the 'appropriate time'.

The former Olympic boxing champion traveled to Germany to visit Ukrainian troops who were being trained to use the advanced weapon system ahead of their front-line deployment. Klitschko, whose brother Vitali is mayor of Kyiv, referred to the main battle tank as a 'cat.' He praised Germany and the free world for their continued help to Ukraine. The first four Leopard 2s arrived in Kyiv from Poland yesterday.

Hayden Panettiere, a Hollywood actress, has enjoyed a fruitful life thanks to her appearances in hit shows like Nashville and Heroes, but her life has been full of turmoil behind the camera. The 33-year-old actress, who began acting as a child actor, has seen the ups-and-downs of her personal life play out in the public eye during her time in tinsel town. Following a private conflict with 'terrible anxiety and depression,' Jansen Panettiere, the actress' only sibling, died in New York City over the weekend.' The shocking news came just as the actress was taking steps to recover from her previous knockbacks, which included bouts with postpartum depression, heroin use, a tumultuous custody fight with her ex-partner Wladimir Klitschko over their eight-year-old daughter, and her domestic violence issues with her most recent partner Brian Hickerson.

Usyk defeated Joshua in a rematch in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, last August after he had defeated him by decision a year before at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Joshua seemed to be going through something of a meltdown after a third loss in his career.

If athletes from Russia and Belarus were allowed to compete in the 2024 Paris Games, Zorzs Tikmers, President of the Latvian Olympic Committee, said they should avoid it. Last week, the International Olympic Committee announced that it was open to including Russian and Belarusian athletes as neutrals at the Games and opened the door to them competing in qualifiers, sparking a tense reaction from Kyiv. Ukraine is hoping to gain widespread international recognition for excluding Russian and Belarusian athletes from participating in the Games. Russian forces used Belarus as a launch pad for their assault on Kyiv in February last year, and there has been Russian and Belarusi military forces deployed there for months.

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua have been ruled over the roost for some time, but not for long. Fury's big moment came in November 2015 when he deposed long-serving champion Wladimir Klitschko, but he hasn't been happier since his return to action in 2018. Fury has firmly established himself as the premier heavyweight in the United Kingdom, despite two knockout victories over Deontay Wilder, met domestic rivals Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora this year, and appears to be vying for the disputed crown next year.

Tyson Fury aimed for a cheeky laugh by releasing a Christmas card in which his heavyweight rivals mocked up as his children. In his Morecambe mansion, the Gypsy King is looking forward to enjoying the festive season with his wife Paris and their six children. However, Fury traded his family for boxing rivals in a Christmas card published on Instagram featuring Anthony Joshua, Dillian Whyte', Deontay Wilder, Wladimir Klitschko, and David Haye.
