SHOCK REVEALED: WHY ANTHONY JOSHUA THINKS TERENCE CRAWFORD IS MAKING A MASSIVE RETIREMENT MISTAKE

Anthony Joshua breaks the silence on Terence Crawford’s retirement, claiming the 42-0 legend "has so much more left."

SHOCK REVEALED: Why Anthony Joshua thinks Terence Crawford is making a massive retirement mistake
Joshua slams Terence Crawford’s retirement

Anthony Joshua was really surprised when Terence Crawford said he was retiring and thinks he shouldn't: 'He's got so much left!'

Like a lot of people, Anthony Joshua couldn't believe it when Terence Crawford said he was quitting.

Terence Crawford, who used to be the undisputed champ in three weight divisions and has held belts in five, said he was done with boxing.

Even though he's 38, Crawford looked great when he beat Canelo Alvarez to become the undisputed super middleweight champ on September 13. But Crawford (42-0, 31 KOs) apparently feels like he's had enough.

Joshua totally respects Crawford's choice, but he thinks Crawford, who's sure to be in the Hall of Fame, shouldn't retire yet.

Joshua, who used to be the heavyweight champ twice, talked to Rick Reeno on the Mr. Verzace Podcast before his fight on Friday.

“Terence Crawford has a lot more to give,” Joshua said. It's not just about his body; it's about his head. He's been boxing for a long time, so maybe he's just mentally tired of it, even if he's still in good shape.”

Terence Crawford did more than most fighters, but he still had choices. Alvarez wanted to fight him again later next year. Also, Jaron Ennis and Vergil Ortiz are two of many fighters who've been wanting to fight him.

But it sounds like Crawford is satisfied with his boxing career and is waiting for his Hall of Fame call. Joshua (28-4, 25 KOs) will be a little bummed if Crawford doesn't want to come back. Still, he knows Crawford has given his life to boxing and can retire when he wants.

“I’d love to see him keep fighting,” Joshua said. “I think he's still got it, but everyone has to live by their own rules.”

JUST IN: 50 CENT TROLLS "DUMB ASS" MAYWEATHER OVER $340M LAWSUIT AGAINST SHOWTIME

Floyd Mayweather sues Showtime for $340 million, alleging a massive fraud scheme involving Al Haymon and Stephen Espinoza.

Floyd Mayweather is suing Showtime, but NOT manager Al Haymon

50 Cent never misses a chance to throw shade, and now he’s aiming straight at Floyd Mayweather again. News just dropped that Mayweather is suing Showtime for a jaw-dropping $340 million, claiming they stiffed him on payouts.

TMZ Sports got a hold of the lawsuit, which has Mayweather going after Showtime (now under Paramount CBS) and ex-Showtime Sports boss Stephen Espinoza. According to Floyd, Espinoza helped his old manager, Al Haymon, siphon off millions through a big-time financial scam.

The lawsuit says Showtime funnelled money that belonged to Mayweather into accounts run by Haymon, including earnings from those blockbuster fights with Manny Pacquiao and Conor McGregor. What’s weird is, even though the suit names Showtime and Espinoza, Haymon doesn’t show up as a defendant at all.

Now, 50 Cent is piling on. He’s clowning Mayweather for getting played—especially since he spent years telling Floyd to dump Haymon as his manager and partner over at TMT/Mayweather Promotions. 50’s always claimed he was the real brains behind Mayweather’s “Money” era, and apparently, UFC boss Dana White said 50 was the one who convinced him that Mayweather vs. McGregor could actually happen.

50 didn’t hold back on Instagram: “Oh no, don’t cry now, champ; they beat you out of $320 million, you dumbass. I told you to let me read the contracts. Now lace up; you have to look good fighting Mike. Then maybe we can get Bud to beat your ass for some big money.”

Mayweather is famous for burning through more cash than just about anyone in sports. People say he’s broke again, but honestly, Floyd could rake in hundreds of millions more if he just goes through with that rumoured fight against Mike Tyson.

That Tyson fight was supposed to go down in early 2026, but right now, it’s in limbo. Still, even while 50 Cent keeps roasting Floyd online, he’s sort of dangling a helping hand—offering to help set up a big-money fight against Terence “Bud” Crawford. Only in boxing, right?

GERVONTA DAVIS ARRESTED IN MIAMI ON BATTERY, KIDNAPPING, AND FALSE IMPRISONMENT CHARGES

Gervonta Davis is in custody after a two-week manhunt. Facing kidnapping charges, the star has been stripped of his WBA title.

Gervonta Davis was arrested in Miami for kidnapping

Gervonta Davis, who’s a three-division world champ and one of boxing’s biggest names, landed in jail Wednesday in Miami—almost two weeks after police put out a warrant for his arrest. They’re accusing him of battery, false imprisonment, and attempted kidnapping tied to an alleged domestic violence incident from last fall.

Police in Miami Gardens said they tracked Davis for several days across three counties, working with the US Marshals Fugitive Task Force. When they caught up with him in Miami’s Design District, he didn’t put up a fight. They booked him into Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Centre late Wednesday.

Cops say all this goes back to something that happened on October 27 at a strip club in Miami Gardens. The woman at the centre of the case used to date Davis and was working there as a VIP cocktail server that night. Police claim Davis confronted her inside, forced her into a back room, assaulted her, then kept her restrained before taking her outside.

In the report, police say Davis grabbed her by the hair and throat, threatened her, and led her out to the parking lot, where he finally let her go. She found coworkers, got help, and called the police. Officers say she had visible bruises on her arm.

She told investigators she met Davis back in 2022. They dated for a few months in 2025, but she broke things off about a month before the incident and had stopped talking to him.

Besides going to the police, she also filed a civil lawsuit against Davis for battery, false imprisonment, and kidnapping. Her attorney said the police investigation lines up with what she claimed in her suit.

“The investigation led to a judge signing off on the arrest warrant,” her attorney said back in January. “That matches the allegations in the lawsuit.”

Court records show her lawyers tried over and over to serve Davis with the lawsuit, but couldn’t find him for weeks.

At a press conference on January 14, Miami Gardens police called it a domestic violence case and said they were working with federal agents to track Davis down. When asked for more details Wednesday night, police said they couldn’t share anything else because the case is still active.

Last fall, Davis was in Miami training for a big fight with influencer Jake Paul, set for November at Kaseya Centre. Once the lawsuit hit the news, Davis was taken off the card, and Anthony Joshua stepped in. Davis last fought in March, when he held onto his WBA lightweight title after a controversial draw with Lamont Roach Jr in Brooklyn.

But over the weekend, WBA president Gilberto Mendoza announced they stripped Davis of the title, pointing to the legal case and his long absence from the ring. Davis has only defended the title twice in three years—most recently against Roach, which was more than ten months ago—and he doesn’t have another fight lined up.

This isn’t Davis’s first run-in with the law. He’s had several domestic violence allegations in Florida and elsewhere, though many were later dropped. In 2023, he got three years’ probation and some house arrest for a hit-and-run in Baltimore.

Right now, it’s not clear if these new Florida charges will mess with his probation in Maryland or delay any future fights. Jail and court records didn’t say when he’ll first appear in court in Miami-Dade.

Miami Gardens police say their investigation is still going and aren’t commenting further.
