The fight of the century is back. Last time around, Oleksandr Usyk became the first undisputed heavyweight champion for 25 years, and he's back again for the rematch against Tyson Fury, who'll want to avenge his first professional defeat. Gabby and Mark chat to cruiserweight boxer and former WBO title holder, Chris Billam-Smith, about running with Fury, the pressure of a rematch and how he sees it going (09:25). We react to Marcus Rashford essentially saying he wants to leave Manchester United. Is he right to want to go? And where could he move to?
