Boxers who fought as amateurs then rematched as professionals including Anthony Joshua vs Dillian Whyte and Mike Tyson
FROM Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali to Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury, a host of big-name boxers have fought an opponent as amateurs only to take them on in the ring as a pro years later. Check out the long list of epic rematches, below... DILLIAN WHYTE vs ANTHONY JOSHUA In 2009 ex-kickboxer Whyte was struggling to get his first amateur boxing opponent until he was offered a 4-0 prospect from Watford, called Anthony Joshua. Brixton’s Whyte grabbed the fight with both hands and the two Londoner’s slugged it out upstairs at the Boston Dome pub in Tufnell Park.

Medicinal cannabis: ‘Wonder drug’ or work in progress?
Scientists are researching a range of possible medical applications for the chemical compounds, often synthetic ones, that can be derived from cannabis. Forms of cannabis have been said to provide pain relief over millennia, via a history of "herbal remedies" starting in Egypt, China, India and ancient Persia. More recently, scientists have found that terpenes, a chemical in cannabis which helps give the plant its fragrance, may work as an antiviral agent against a human coronavirus called HCoV-229E . That's not the same coronavirus as SARS-CoV-2, the one that's responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. But it is one of seven coronaviruses that infect humans . The terpene was tested in combination with a cannabis compound called cannabidiol (CBD). Earlier in the pandemic, researchers in Canada suggested a synthetic form of cannabis may inhibit the novel coronavirus and stop it from infecting our bodies via ACE2 receptors. ACE2 receptors are gateways into the human body. … [Read more...] about Medicinal cannabis: ‘Wonder drug’ or work in progress?
John Travolta reveals how he asked Princess Diana for ‘fairytale’ White House dance
John Travolta has reflected on his iconic dance with Princess Diana and how he plucked up the courage to approach her. The Grease actor, 67, and the royal twirled around the dance floor at a 1985 White House state dinner hosted by then-President Ronald Reagan and First Lady Nancy Reagan. Diana looked incredible in a black ballgown, with the moment becoming one of the most iconic pictures of her. Speaking to Esquire Mexico , John, who said the dance was like a "dream", revealed how nervous he was to approach the royal. He said: "I didn't think they'd ask me to dance with her. I had the great privilege and honor of doing so, and I thought, 'There must be a reason for doing this and I better give it my all.' "That meant lead the dance well and make sure we had fun. "That was the easy part, but just the fact of greeting Diana appropriately, being confident and asking her to dance was a complicated task." He continued: "Think of the setting. We were at the White House. It's … [Read more...] about John Travolta reveals how he asked Princess Diana for ‘fairytale’ White House dance
