boxing journalist yousef anani told me he thinks the right man won.. there have obviously been protests by tyson fury�*s promotional team, but its extraordinary, really, that a much smaller man like alexander usyk, it really was, he really was in against a giant, could do so well and dictate large portions of the fight, landing a lot of body shots, which a lot of people don't really notice. but a body shot scores just as well as a head shot and he was the one landing those throughout. so i think the right man won. and what about the legacy now? i mean, both clearly great fighters of their generation tyson fury, two defeats now. what does that do to his reputation? well, he's a great boxer and his legacy is secure. but he always proclaimed that he was the greatest of all time and that's been shown up as a bit of a nonsense, really. perhaps not even the greatest british heavyweight of all time, that accolade probably belongs to lennox lewis. but he's an exceptionally talented boxer, but at the top level... and he was, of course, a champion for a long ti

let's face it, peter, the reform party chairman, zaur yousef, has said that he would gladly invite onee top four audit firms in to verify their numbers. >> but at the same time, we've got kemi badenoch saying on twitter that those numbers are fake and it's all to do, alleging that it's been manipulation of the back end of the reform website that's produced this figure. so why is kemi so confident that she is correct in this instance? >> i'm not actually a mind reader. i can't really answer that question, but i guess i guess she has to. she has to, as it were, keep the end up. but this but but for nigel farage, the joy of all this is the fact and even the fact that kemi badenoch is grumbling about it and screeching about it. the fact. what? here we are, sat here on the box talking about nigel farage. and so all this stuff up, up ups his profile and makes it easier for him to recruit more people, whether he's got more people on side at this stage than the tories doesn't really matter. the fact is they're on their way up. and when you consider that his his best chum, elon musk is making p
