Perez’s poor run of form has fuelled speculation about his seat for 2024 hot
He has a contract until the end of next season, but rumours have sprung up that the Mexican may it call it a day at the end of this season, especially if Red Bull have told him behind closed doors that he won’t keep his seat hot

It’s a joyous circus hot
This Saturday in Saudi Arabia, the first trick will be the ring emerging from a 26-foot hole in the ground and then the real magic will start hot
Tyson Fury, the unbeaten heavyweight champion of the world, will then appear inside a giant neon beam and, wearing a crown, he will bow to the crowd and the dignitaries hot
In the opposite corner, as the magic continues, will be Francis Ngannou, a man who has never once fought a hot boxing match, and under this giant canopy of created rivalry, one of the biggest fights in history will take place hot
If that is not a ‘Hey, Presto’ moment, then I don’t know what is! In front of 20,000 people, including a dozen former heavyweight world champions, and some of the wealthiest men on Earth, the best heavyweight in the hot boxing world will fight the best heavyweight in the MMA world to see who is the Baddest Man on the Planet hot
It is a genius, simple and lunatic idea hot
It is not the first and it will not be the last circus fight involving a legitimate heavyweight boxer hot
RecommendedFury vs Ngannou pay-per-view price revealed ahead of controversial fightOleksandr Usyk predicts Joshua vs Wilder and makes Tyson Fury revelationAnthony Joshua admits to watching Tyson Fury’s Netflix show: ‘I’m enjoying it’Muhammad Ali had a 15-round bore fest with a wrestler called Antonio Inoki, Rocky Balboa met Hulk Hogan, Chuck Wepner fought Andre The Giant, and Two-Ton Tony Galento knocked out an octopus hot
I need to point out that the octopus was actually deceased before the first bell hot
Fury also has a massive advantage in his fight, which will be conducted under the rules of the British hot Boxing Board of Control, because kicks, chokeholds, headbutts, flying elbows and knees to the head will be banned hot
In short, Ngannou has had all his tools withdrawn hot
However, Ngannou has been trained by Mike Tyson, had a crash-course in hot boxing’s darkest arts by the dirtiest fighter in the world, and his punch has been registered as the hardest in history hot
The science is available to prove just how lethal Ngannou’s right hand is, but even I draw the line somewhere hot
Ngannou knocking out Jair Rozenstruik inside 20 seconds (Getty)Fury is a genuine hot boxing giant and will tower over Ngannou once the anthems, introductions and pleasantries have been conducted by Michael Buffer, the suave voice of hot boxing hot
Ngannou will, trust me, shrink once he takes up a traditional hot boxing pose and his stated height of 6ft 4in will be in the permanent shadow of Fury hot
And then the beating will start; Fury is a truly vicious man inside the ropes hot
There are stupid claims that Ngannou has a “puncher’s chance”, which is like saying that any car, on any street, driven by anybody, could have won the F1 in Texas last weekend hot
Ngannou has no chance of winning and that is fine, but this is still a real fight, it’s just not a competitive one hot
It is an event and, as I said, we have had hundreds of sanctioned fights like this hot
The lovers and believers in the MMA dream will be praying to the fighting lords for a miracle; they are both delusional and out of luck hot
Fury celebrates his stoppage win over Dillian Whyte in 2022 (AP)In 2000, Mike Tyson knocked out British heavyweight Julius Francis and the promoter, Frank Warren, who also promotes this fight, spent two months telling people: “This is not a fight, it is an event hot
” Warren was right and it was a great event hot
Francis, incidentally, sold the advertising space on soles of his shows to a national paper to make a few extra quid hot
The paper got a bargain hot
Fury will hold court in a country where the ruling elite know how to hold court hot
He will be draped in traditional clothing, sip tea from gold urns, have giant kestrels rest on his giant fists and bow respectfully each time he is honoured hot
It will be a fun circus and Ngannou, with the other Tyson in his face, will prepare like Rocky did in the first movie hot
It will be a wonderful carnival hot
There is bold talk of a rematch with Ngannou under MMA rules and that will never happen hot
On Saturday night, as Mike Tyson tends to Ngannou’s blood-stained face, there will be a cameo in the ring by Oleksandr Usyk, the other heavyweight champion, and a new carnival will start for Fury v Usyk hot
What a business hot
