In boxing – The Gyspy King Tyson Fury says ‘he will never fight Anthony Joshua ever’ after their failed negotiations. Fury insists it was Joshua’s ‘ego and business interests i.e not to lose again, that prevented the fight from going ahead later this year.
In football – the Oxford English Dictionary now defines a famous metaphor – “Squeaky bum time” by Man U coaching icon, Sir Alex Ferguson as “a reference to the sound of someone shifting restlessly on plastic seating during tense closing stages of a contest.”
“Squeaky bum time” was coined by Sir Alex during a press conference in 2003 to describe the pressures of extreme competition in the league.

Fans at the game had a one in 38,832 chance of catching the record-breaking baseball, which is expected to sell for up to US$3Million, now that American sports memorabilia collector, JP Cohen put in a bid of $US2M for the ball on behalf of a Yankees fan, who wishes to remain anonymous.
