Latrell is in the house

As ever, Latrell Mitchell is in the news. A week after attending a Luke Combs concert, the South Sydney star is here to support his mate Nikita Tszyu.

Rabbitohs coach Jason Demetriou was forced to defend suggestions Mitchell holds too much power at the club on a dramatic day that resulted in club legend and assistant coach Sam Burgess parting company with Souths.

Good evening fight fans!

A very warm welcome to you from the Hordern Pavilion where Nikita Tszyu will be making his pay-per-view debut. Tszyu will put his undefeated record on the line when he comes up against Jack Brubaker, the only opponent to have faced both Tszyu brothers.

Tim Tszyu defeated Brubaker four years ago after Brubaker’s corner threw in the towel 91 seconds into the fourth round. Can Brubaker exact revenge against Team Tszyu? Or will Nikita make even shorter work of the man dubbed “Gelignite”?
