Anthony Joshua drops comeback hint in private conversation despit

By
Anthony Joshua

Anthony Joshua has a “desire to continue” despite suffering a tragic car crash in Nigeria last month.

That is according to Oleksandr Usyk – who recently shared a conversation the former two-time heavyweight world champion. Joshua was a passenger in the the Lexus SUV that collided with a stationary truck on a major expressway near Lagos, Nigeria. The 36-year-old came away with minor injuries, but the incident claimed the lives of two of the boxer’s close friends and teammates, Sina Ghami and Latif Ayodele.

Their funerals took place in London on January 4. Reports have emerged since that Joshua cheated death by swapping seats ahead of the journey. There are now questions over the Brit’s future – who was in Nigeria just days after his knockout win over YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.

Earlier this month, the boxing star’s uncle claimed the heavyweight behemoth had informed his family he will retire following the crash. The Brit allegedly made the decision ‘known to his family in private’. “The major thing there is that he has retired from boxing. That is one thing that makes us glad because each time he’s fighting in the ring, we are always carried away emotionally,” Adedamola Joshua told The Punch. Usyk, though, shares a different view after sharing a chat with ‘AJ.’

The 39-year-old – who famously beat Joshua twice in 2021 and 2022 – has formed a rather close bond with the Brit in recent times, and the Ukrainian has now revealed a conversation he had with the boxing legend. During a recent interview with Ready To Fight, he said: “I’ve already spoken with him.

“I heard a desire to continue in his voice — for the friends he lost and for the chance to live that the Lord gave him. Once I spoke with the mother of my fallen comrade, and she told me: ‘Oleksandr, he would be very proud that you are continuing your work; he will watch you from heaven.’ And he, I think, does that. And not just him, but all my loved ones who passed away defending our country. They are my guardian angels who help me in the ring.”

Usyk has worked closely with Joshua these past few months after Joshua enlisted the help of the Ukrainian ahead of his fight with Paul last month. The 39-year-old is expected to make his return to the ring later this year, having not fought since his knockout win over Daniel Dubois back in July.

Last week, pictures emerged of Joshua returning to the gym nearly three weeks after the incident in Nigeria. ‘AJ’ shared snaps of him working working out and hitting pads in what he described as “mental strength therapy.” He was also seen pushing himself with some lower leg exercises as well as riding a stationary bike. Further footage showed the boxing star getting in a pool in a compilation of footage.

Other posts included a picture of what appeared to be the official time he had been on a cardio machines, along with the caption: “I am a fighter.” as well as a photo of him being punched by heavyweight legend Wladimir Klitschko during their historic showdown back in 2017 at Wembley Stadium.

The boxer’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, provided a recent update on his star client after the British fighter was spotted back in the gym, as he laced up the gloves again in Dubai. The promoter shared a post on Instagram. “Great to catch up with @anthonyjoshua today,” the Matchroom chief wrote. “His resilience and strength is inspiring. The loss is heavy, and he will take his time to get back on track. But said he is truly grateful for all the support and the love shown for Latz and Sina.”

Why Jake Paul’s Mansion Was Raided by FBI and Heavily-Armed SWAT Team

By
Jake Paul

Jake Paul’s mansion was raided by the FBI as a team of SWAT officers in armoured vehicles descended upon his pad.

Paul, who made his boxing debut in 2020, has emerged as one of the biggest names in the sport following his high-profile fights, including bouts against UFC legends Anderson Silva and Nate Diaz.

Not to mention Mike Tyson and Anthony Joshua, who stopped ‘The Problem Child’ in the sixth round of their money-spinning clash last month.

Paul has earned some eye-watering purses in his career, having bagged a huge payout from his Netflix showdown against Joshua.

He’s made a series of extravagant purchases in the process, including his $8 million mansion in California.

In 2020, his luxury home was the subject of an FBI investigation as a team of SWAT officers in armoured vehicles raided the property while searching for evidence that he was linked to the looting of a Scottsdale mall.

Paul and graffiti artist friend Arman Izadi were arrested at Scottsdale Fashion Square mall and charged with trespassing and unlawful assembly after filming a mob ransacking the property.

Some of the rioters had claimed that they were protesting the murder of George Floyd, who was killed by a police officer.

Paul and Izadi immediately denied any wrongdoing, but police said they were sent ‘hundreds of tips’ claiming the YouTuber-turned-boxer was a participant in the riot.

That prompted the FBI to carry out their raid of the 29-year-old’s property, with news helicopters capturing the federal officers walking out of his mansion with several rifles they confiscated during the search.

The charges against Paul and Izadi were ultimately dropped and no arrests were made.

But it lives long in the memory of Paul’s mum, Pam Stepnick, who opened up on the incident in her new book, ‘F**k the Pauls”.

An excerpt of it read: “My ears rang with the news when Ted told me the FBI was raiding Jake’s home.

“I ran out of my dermatologist appointment and sank to the floor in the building’s stairwell. My heart was racing.

“After the family text bombardment during Jake’s last controversy (the Covid party), I decided to get ahead of their good intentions.

“This time, I texted them with the news about Jake, telling them not to freak out when they saw the headlines.

“FBI spokesperson Jill McCabe said the FBI was investigating allegations of criminal acts surrounding the incident at Scottsdale Fashion Square in May 2020.

“I knew my son had not done anything that merited the freaking FBI’s attention, much less the whole country’s attention.

“The story was picked up in national publications. I was unraveling.

“I had always been the rock and the glue that holds our family together, but the FBI?

“This was bigger than anything we had ever experienced up until this point in our family’s wild history.

“At the time of the raid, Jake was training for his next boxing match.

“The FBI searched Jake’s home, looking for God knows what. As I watched helicopters circle around his mansion, I thought, ‘What the hell is happening?’

“FBI agents carried guns out of the Calabasas home along with video equipment, cell phones, cameras, and laptops. In the days following the raid, my family stared into the abyss, devastated, afraid, and deeply humbled.

“When I saw video footage of the FBI confiscating Team 10 cameras (the social media label Jake had founded) and laptops on the news over and over and over again, I was disgusted. In my heart, I knew there were no bad intentions on Jake’s part.

“I watched the video while shaking my head. This investigation will go nowhere.

“There’s nothing to find. And I was right. The charges were dropped. I was frustrated. It felt like another media grab.

“At a time when all eyes were on the internet, Jake’s name meant more clicks.

“But this series of events caused Jake to take stock of his life. Finally, he had to course correct.”

Real Reason Behind Mike Tyson’s First Boxing Loss Revealed After

By
Mike Tyson Buster Douglas

Real Medical Reason Behind Mike Tyson’s First Boxing Loss Revealed After 36 Years

In February 1990, the boxing world witnessed what many still call the biggest upset in the sport’s history. Billed as Mike Tyson’s comeback fight, ‘Buster’ Douglas defied odds and shocked the world by knocking out the youngest heavyweight champion ever in the 10th round. Fans were left stunned, trying to understand what caused Tyson’s stunning collapse. Now, 36 years later, a new layer of truth has surfaced about that historic night.

According to reports, the former heavyweight champion was suffering from the bacterial s***ly transmitted disease gonorrhea, which severely affected his performance. Tyson was reportedly taking heavy doses of prescribed medication, which slowed him down inside the ring. That physical setback allowed Douglas to land the finishing blow, taking away Tyson’s undefeated record along with his WBA, WBC, and IBF heavyweight titles.

JUST IN: Lawyer Shares Grim Update Amid Police Manhunt as Gervonta Da

Mike Tyson fought Buster Douglas while battling gonorrhea

“Douglas fought the fight of his life, and Mike fought the worst fight of his life, and got clobbered. It wasn’t until later that I learned of the medical challenges Mike was dealing with,” Dr. Elias Graham, the chairman of the Nevada Athletic Commission, told the New York Post in a recent interview.

Mike Tyson stepping into the ring while dealing with such a serious condition was undeniably brave. But the revelation goes even deeper. ‘Iron Mike’ had actually been suffering from the infection long before the Douglas fight.

According to a 2011 CBS article, Tyson was dealing with the same issue when he defeated Trevor Berbick on November 22, 1986. Describing his experience with the disease, Tyson later spoke about how badly it affected him, as he revealed dripping pus from his genitals.

“I was dripping like a good humid July, man,” the now 59-year-old said, as per the CBS article.

It was a brutally honest and somewhat graphic description from the heavyweight legend. Still, even after gonorrhea was revealed as his hidden kryptonite, Tyson never used it as an excuse.

‘Iron’ lauded Douglas for his performance 

For a dominant champion like Mike Tyson, losing to a massive underdog was always going to sting. But even in defeat, ‘Iron Mike’ showed the mindset of a true champion. When ‘Buster’ Douglas shocked him at the Tokyo Dome in Japan, Tyson accepted the loss with honesty and gave full credit to his opponent for delivering a masterclass.

“Because I took some f–in shots. You know… nobody would have took them shots. It’s just a bang. He fought a great fight that night. What a great fight. But you know what’s so ironic that he won, everybody that beat him, I knocked out,” Tyson stated in an interview with American rapper Joe Budden in 2023.

After that loss, the heavyweight legend went on to regain the WBA and WBC championships, proving he was far from finished. Still, boxing fans continue to regret never seeing a rematch between Tyson and Douglas. It remains one of the sport’s most fascinating what-ifs.

Lawyer Shares Grim Update Amid Police Manhunt as Gervonta Davis Stripped of WBA Title

Things went from bad to worse for Gervonta Davis in the blink of an eye. The Baltimore native was supposed to rake in millions in an exhibition fight against Jake Paul in November. Instead, his ex-girlfriend, Courtney Rossel, filed a civil lawsuit against him, forcing MVP to cancel the fight. As it turns out, this was only the beginning of his troubles.

The Miami Gardens Police Department announced there’s an arrest warrant out for Davis, and a search for the boxer ensued. Even the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force got involved to locate and apprehend him, as he had not turned himself in. Now, the latest reports reveal that the search from the cops has followed a failed search from the victim’s attorney.

Is Gervonta Davis in hiding? 

According to a report from Boxing Scene, Rossel’s attorney Richard Wolfe had been trying to locate the three-division champion. “We have been attempting to obtain service of process [on Davis], and we are certain we will obtain service of process when Mr. Davis has been arrested,” Wolfe told Boxing Scene.

When asked where he thinks Gervonta Davis currently is, the attorney shared a grim update. “No idea. We sent our process server to his house six times without success. We have filed a motion to allow an alternative service—when someone’s evading service—by publication. That’s set for [a] hearing,” Wolfe added during the interview.

It’s worth noting that the Gardens Police’s attempts to locate Davis and the attorney’s hunt are different matters. Regardless, Wolfe is confident that Davis will be forced to answer for the alleged attack on his ex-girlfriend in October, which started Davis’ troubles. “We attempted to resolve the matter without success,” Wolfe said.

“And we look forward to presenting our client’s testimony in court,” Wolfe concluded his statement to Boxing Scene. The damages sought in the civil lawsuit are currently unknown, as Florida allows the amount to be kept private if it’s above $50,000. In the meantime, though, Davis’ professional boxing career also appears to be taking a downturn.

After news broke that a warrant had been issued for Davis’ arrest, the World Boxing Association (WBA) responded quickly. They were quick to label the 31-year-old ‘champion in recess,’ which effectively strips Davis of his WBA lightweight title.

This will allow contenders to compete for the strap while Davis grapples with his legal issues. However, if Davis gets himself free of his legal problem, he can come back and directly challenge for the belt. For now, he hasn’t fought since his controversial draw against Lamont Roach Jr. in March last year. And for good reason, take how Jake Paul reacted to Davis’ lawsuit.

Jake Paul went ballistic over ‘Tank’ Davis’ lawsuit

The YouTuber-turned-boxer took to X to unload on Davis following news of a civil lawsuit filed in Miami that accuses the boxing star of battery and kidnapping. The allegations, which add to a series of past abuse claims against Davis, ultimately led to the bout being scrapped.

An angry Paul did not hold back, branding Davis an “actual walking human piece of garbage” and detailing what he described as repeated unprofessional behavior, including bizarre demands and showing up hours late to promotional shoots.

Paul also condemned fans who continue to support Davis, saying he refused to give Davis “a platform” to grow his fame or fortune. Paul apologized to undercard fighters and his MVP team for the fallout, before declaring he’s already moving on to a new opponent—“Anyone. Anytime. Any place.”

He ultimately fought Anthony Joshua in December and ended up with a fractured jaw in two places.

Whether Gervonta Davis suffers the consequences of his actions is yet to be seen. However, his career already appears to be suffering. He not only missed out on making millions, but his legal problems will take out a lot of money from his pocket.

Floyd Mayweather Appeal Denied, Must Pay Nigerian Company Close To $3M For Breach Of Contract

In June 2017, Mayweather signed an agreement to make several appearances in Africa but never showed up

After numerous rumors of financial issues surfaced in recent years, undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather has been ordered to pay a Nigerian media company more than $2 million for failing to satisfy a prior debt owed to the company for breach of contract.

According to Business Insider Africa, the fighter was previously ordered to pay Zinni Media Concept Limited $2.4 million in 2023 and, after not making any payments for over two years, now owes close to $3 million, with interest added.

READ: Authorities Unable To Locate Gervonta Davis

The lawsuit stemmed from an incident in June 2017, after Mayweather signed an agreement with the media company to make several appearances in Africa. After being paid an initial $210,000, he never appeared and did not refund the fee he had been paid.

In 2023, Mayweather was sued in California for failing to appear at the scheduled events. A Los Angeles court awarded Zinni Media $2.4 million. The damages were outlined as $1,638,542 in principal, $721,881 in prejudgment interest, $16,270 in attorney fees, and $285 in costs, bringing the total to $2,376,978.

Mayweather appealed the decision, but the court denied it.

Alex Nwankwo, who is an executive for Zinni Media, stated, “After multiple unsuccessful attempts to recover the appearance fees from Mayweather, we filed a lawsuit in 2018, alleging breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and fraud. We appreciate that two courts have ruled in favour of Zinni Media Ltd.”

The court has ruled that attorneys may pursue enforcement and seize Mayweather’s luxury vehicles, including a 2015 Bugatti Veyron and a 2015 Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta, both of which are worth more than the amount owed to Zinni Media.

In May 2025, Mayweather responded to the reports of his assumed financial problems at The Real Deal’s New York City Forum.

“Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but if that’s what you call having two private jets, owning 100 buildings, and being able to do what you want, then I’m pretty sure everybody is going bankrupt,” he told the audience when questioned about it.

The retired boxer, who remains active by participating in exhibition matches, has one slated this year (no date has been revealed) against Mike Tyson.

Tiger Woods and Fans Stunned as Justin Rose Makes History at TGL Match

The TGL golf just witnessed a moment of pure digital magic that nobody will ever forget. Justin Rose aced a 253-yard fairway shot for the first albatross in TGL history, a rare three-under-par feat on a par-5 hole during Season 2 against the Tiger Woods Jupiter Links GC team.

TGL: Tiger Woods thrashed on debut as Collin Morikawa, Justin Rose help Los Angeles Golf Club to dominant win | Golf News | Sky Sports

READ: Why Greg Norman attacks Tiger Woods for not daring to

The official TGL social media account quickly posted the video celebrating his massive and rare achievement with a caption: “First albatross in TGL history.” Tiger Woods and the fans from the side was toal awestruck. And the fans online also reacted with total joy as the video clip quickly climbed past 8,700 views in minutes.

Justin Rose has accomplished plenty throughout his golf career, but the 45-year-old experienced a career first in Tuesday’s TGL match that he isn’t going to let anybody belittle.

The Englishman competed Tuesday alongside Los Angeles Golf Club teammates Collin Morikawa and Sahith Theegala against Tiger Woods’ Jupiter Links Golf Club, though TGL co-founder Woods was relegated to an eager cheerleader for his team’s match as he continues recovery from back surgery.

With LAGC already ahead entering the 10th hole, 4-1, Rose opened the singles session on the Par 5 Sterling, a long hole with a narrow bunker running through the middle of the entire length of the fairway.

After a perfect tee shot found the right side of the fairway, Rose followed it up with another perfect strike, finding the green and rolling it into the hole, making personal and TGL history in the process.

It was the first albatross in TGL history and, perhaps surprisingly, the first albatross ever for Rose, an experienced veteran of the PGA and DP World Tours.

Rose reacted by pumping his fists and embracing Theegala and Morikawa as he put LA ahead, 5-1, helping set up an eventual 8-4 victory.

“I didn’t know it was going in, but as a player I knew that I executed,” Rose said of his monumental shot. “As soon as I saw it kind of take off and stay straight, I was like, ‘that’s going to be good.’

“So that’s kind of why I was like, ‘well, I can’t do anything about it now, I may as well start walking.’ I was kind of walking to get my putter, obviously ended up not needing my putter, which was exciting.

“But that’s the surprise, right? You can hit a great shot, but the outcome is always slightly out of your control. But I was dead set, loved the way it felt off the club, and then you get that moment where you’re like, ‘oh my god, that’s going in.’ That’s kind of that surprise moment, which is amazing.

“So yeah, it was a fun moment to celebrate with the boys, and it was a cool moment, for sure.”

The victory, which was sealed by a Morikawa putt on the 14th hole, brought LAGC to 1-1 this season after losing to Boston Common GC in its opener earlier this month, putting the team in a playoff position for the time being still relatively early in the TGL campaign.

“We were all just good tonight,” Rose said. “We were all solid. There was no drama, really. We were just always in control, but when you let a team back in in match play, if you give them a little bit of momentum, things can shift.

“So I felt like Collin stepping up in that critical moment and making the putt was huge. Yeah, 0-2 at this point — I’m not saying The Bay and Jupiter are the teams that you look at and think that you should beat, but there’s some strong matches ahead for us as well, as there will be all the way to the end.”

Claressa Shields Gets Caught in Embarrassing Situation in Front of Millions

Claressa Shields is usually the one embarrassing her opponents inside the ring. This time, however, the ‘T-Rex found herself on the receiving end as a result of an awkward moment—played out on social media for all. The incident unfolded during a YouTube livestream on the Hood Champion Boxing and Sports channel.

During the show, the host was discussing Shields’ finances, tax situation, and her career when an unidentified caller phoned in, upset over what she claimed was a false portrayal of Shields’ financial situation. The fan criticized the show for repeating unverified rumors and questioned why such claims were being circulated without proper fact-checking.

Claressa Shields is tired of all the lies about her

“I’m sitting up here listening to this live, and I see so much misinformation,” the caller said. She took issue with comments about Shields’ finances, asking, “Why are y’all lying, saying that this woman owes tax money—why are y’all lying, saying that her image is ruined?” While highlighting Shields’ career, the caller argued that people were choosing commentary over facts.

“Nobody’s doing any fact checks,” she added, noting that Shields has been in the public eye since she was a child. As the call went on, the caller gradually abandoned her third-person framing, prompting listeners to question whether it was Shields herself who had called in to defend her reputation. When asked about documents allegedly showing Shields owed back taxes, the caller dismissed the claim outright, speaking with a level of certainty that raised further suspicion.

“Very, very false. I know Claressa myself, so therefore no, it’s not true,” she said during the livestream. Moments later, the facade appeared to slip entirely when the caller stated, “You are saying that my tickets aren’t selling… and then you are saying that taxes. And then all this stuff about my image. Literally, in the gym training, running, getting ready for the fight, taking care of the family, and you keep on coming on with more and more lies, and you let them come on your channel and tell more lies.”

The clip of the call quickly went viral across social media, with many fans convinced the caller was Claressa Shields herself. An X account, TeaWithTia, even claimed, “Chile #ClaressaShields was caught calling into a radio show pretending to be a ‘fan’ that was defending her name. Papoose must have been upstairs, and she was downstairs when she called.”

This, however, isn’t the only controversy Claressa Shields has found herself in the middle of.

Shields lashed out at Tasha K over a comment about Papoose

Blogger Tasha K had questioned Papoose’s intentions and finances, suggesting Shields was funding the relationship. In a fiery video response, the undisputed boxing champion slammed Tasha for what she described as a long-standing pattern of tearing down Black women.

“Tasha K and Lesha Dean… y’all are cancers to the Black African-American culture,” Shields said. “All y’all do y’all whole career try to break down Black women and tell lies about them.” Shields fired back, reminding critics of her success and independence.

“I’m self-made, self-built. I got $8 million. Are you dumb?” she added.

It appears Claressa Shields is being attacked from several directions, which has forced her to come up with unique ways to defend herself. But what did you make of her move to call in pretending to be a fan?

The Shift in Deontay Wilder’s Career Few Are Ready to Acknowledge

By
Deontay Wilder

Questions about Deontay Wilder’s future have resurfaced following comments from former world champion Carl Froch, who suggested the heavyweight’s career has entered a markedly different phase.

Once defined by knockout power and intimidation, Wilder is now at the center of a more reflective discussion about longevity, direction, and the realities that come with time at the elite level.

The discussion has shifted away from potential matchups and toward a broader reassessment of where Wilder now stands in his career.

JUST IN: Authorities Unable To Locate Gervonta Davis

Froch questions what comes next
Speaking about Wilder’s recent run, Froch raised doubts about whether the former WBC heavyweight champion still has a clear route back toward the top of the division.

“What’s next for him?” Froch asked. “Has he got a career left? I just think that he’s lost four of his last six fights.”

Rather than focusing on any single defeat, Froch framed his view around what he sees as a growing gap between Wilder’s reputation and his recent performances.

“It’s all smoke and mirrors now,” Froch continued. “Everyone thinks he’s back with that big punch, and they want to see him get in there.”

A career shaped by power and consequence
Wilder’s rise through the heavyweight ranks was built almost entirely on knockout ability, a trait that carried him to a world title and sustained his presence at the elite level for years. Froch suggested that the physical toll of repeated high-stakes fights has altered that balance.

“I know it’s sad to say that, but at forty years old, the three fights with Fury done him,” Froch said, referencing the cumulative impact of Wilder’s trilogy with Tyson Fury.

While such assessments remain a matter of opinion, they reflect a broader reality faced by fighters whose success was built on singular strengths over extended periods.

Reflection replacing anticipation
For much of his career, Wilder’s place in the heavyweight picture was fueled by anticipation — the belief that one punch could always reset the narrative. Froch’s comments, instead, point toward a stage in which past accomplishments are increasingly weighed against present limitations.

“I know everyone has their own reasons and everyone is entitled to do what they want,” Froch added. “But it’s sad to see, really.”

Whether Wilder chooses to continue or step away remains his decision alone. What has changed is the tone of the conversation surrounding him, which has shifted from expectation toward reflection as his career is increasingly viewed through a longer-term lens.

Authorities remain unable to locate Gervonta Davis, as the 31-year-old has been missing since an arrest warrant was formally issued on January 14.

This was in response to charges over battery, false imprisonment, and attempted kidnapping from an incident involving his former partner, Courtney Rossel.

Surveillance footage reportedly corroborates allegations that Davis physically restrained Rossel at her workplace and attempted to force her into a parking garage. The U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force is currently assisting the Miami Gardens Police Department in the search.Authorities Unable To Locate Gervonta Davis

READ: Where Is Gervonta Davis As Miami P.D And U.S. Marshals Continu

“At this time, the Miami Gardens Police Department is actively working with the United States Marshal’s fugitive task force to locate and apprehend Mr. Davis. Domestic violence is a serious crime, and the Miami Gardens Police Department remains committed to holding offenders accountable and protecting victims. The investigation determined that Mr. Davis used force to restrain in an attempt to remove the victim from the location against her will,” Emmanuel Jeanty (MGPD executive officer) said

The WBA took decisive action by officially downgrading Davis’ status from full lightweight champion to “champion in recess.” This move effectively strips Davis of his title while his legal situation remains unresolved. The WBA is now expected to authorize a fight for the vacant belt, with Floyd Schofield Jr. and Lucas Bahdi currently positioned as the primary candidates to fight for the belt.

Authorities React

Davis’s history of legal trouble does not help him. Having served time in a Baltimore jail in 2023 for violating his home detention following a hit-and-run, Davis now faces the prospect of a lengthy prison sentence. Attorneys representing the alleged victim noted that process servers have made multiple failed attempts to reach him at his residence.

“We have been attempting to obtain service of process [on Davis] and we are certain we will obtain service of process when Mr. Davis has been arrested. We sent our process server to his house six times without success. We have filed a motion to allow an alternative service – when someone’s evading service – by publication. That’s set for hearing,” Richard Wolfe (attorney for Rossel) said

Greg Norman attacks Tiger Woods for not daring to face him directly

At 70 years old, Greg Norman still refuses to fade quietly into golf’s background. The two time major champion, once the polarizing face of LIV Golf, has shifted his attention in recent months from boardroom battles to hunting shipwrecks near Cuba.

But despite a new lifestyle away from daily golf politics, Norman hasn’t stopped stirring debate, especially when it comes to Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.

Tiger Woods and Greg Norman

READ: ‘Without Her…’: How Tiger Woods Pays Tribute to Late Mother Kulti

In a recent interview with The Times, Norman openly questioned why two of golf’s most influential figures never confronted him directly about his role in upending the sport’s status quo. Instead of quiet criticism or behind-the-scenes grumbling, Norman insists Woods and McIlroy should have addressed their disagreements with him openly.

“They couldn’t say to me, ‘Greg, you’ve hurt the PGA Tour,'” he said, challenging the legends to sit down and squarely discuss their views.

Norman argues that many of the financial gains now enjoyed by PGA Tour stars trace back to the seismic shifts sparked by LIV Golf’s emergence. He pointed to the PGA Tour’s Player Impact Program, which rewards players for their commercial and brand value, saying that arrangements like these might not exist without the competitive pressure from the rival circuit.

He also emphasized that his stance hasn’t changed: he still believes his actions validated players’ ability to negotiate better deals and increased the overall transparency of the sport.

For Norman, this is about more than ego; it reflects his belief that transparency fosters accountability. He has grown frustrated, he says, by what he views as whispered criticism rather than candid dialogue.

Norman won’t apologize for shaking up golf

Despite stepping away from leadership of LIV Golf, the Saudi-backed league he once helmed, he remains unapologetic about shaking up golf’s established power structure.

Critics, however, see his comments as the lingering echo of resentment dating back decades, viewing LIV Golf as the culmination of a personal feud with the PGA Tour.

Norman’s tenure with LIV was divisive. Woods and McIlroy each had publicly critical things to say about his influence during the sport’s “civil war,” and both called for his departure from leadership roles to help mend fractured relationships within golf.

Adding to the irony, the league Norman helped create now faces uncertainty under new leadership. Scott O’Neil has taken over daytoday responsibilities, and LIV is navigating defections, financial pressures, and a struggle to attract top players. Notably, Brooks Koepka’s decision to leave LIV and return to the PGA Tour only reinforces the challenges the league faces.

Yet Norman remains defiant. He continues to believe the disruption he set in motion delivered long-term benefits for players and continues to challenge the sport to face uncomfortable truths, not sidestep them.

For him, the silence of Woods and McIlroy is less about disagreement and more about missed opportunity for an honest conversation. And in true Norman fashion, he isn’t letting that go unnoticed.
