Anthony Joshua brags about next fight

BOXING
WBO, WBA and IBF world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua has boasted his fight against Bulgarian challenger Kubrat Pulev will end with the *last man standing*, ahead of their title bout at the Wembley Arena in London this weekend.


The Briton has not fought in 12 months, since he reclaimed his titles in a rematch victory over Andy Ruiz Jr in Saudi Arabia and he is optimistic of coming out on tops when the pair take to the squared ropes on Saturday.
Two-time heavyweight champion Joshua has only lost once in his professional career to Andy Ruiz Jr in 2019, while Pulev has also lost once in his career to Vladimir Klitschko in 2014.

Organized Labour Warns State Governments Against Borrowing From Pensions Fund

Organised Labour has rejected a bid by governors to borrow from the N17 trillion pension funds.

The Nigeria Labour Congress kicked against a similar proposal by Works and Housing Minister BABATUNDE FASHOLA to deploy workers’ retirement benefits being managed by Pension Fund Administrators in the development of infrastructure.

The NLC vowed to mobilise workers nationwide to protest any move to borrow from the money, saying it was the retirement benefit of workers.

NLC President AYUBA WABBA spoke on the rejection at the 47th National Executive Council meeting of the Medical and Health Workers’ Union of Nigeria in Abuja.

The Nigerian Governors’ Forum had endorsed two proposals to borrow N17 trillion from two sources for infrastructural development.

According to WABBA, governors have no constitutional authority over the money which was largely made up of contributory funds MON from federal and private sector workers.
