Nokia brings back the "8110" that appeared in d matrix

It’s easy to forget that Nokia was once one of the biggest phone companies in the world. In 1999, it was so popular that one of its devices, the Nokia 8110, appeared in the first Matrix movie. Now, the curvy handset nicknamed the banana phone is back. As well as unveiling a slew of  new handsets  at MWC, HMD Global, which creates Nokia-branded phones under license, showed off the new Nokia 8110 4G at the event.

Whyte was unbeaten when he faced off against Joshua in December 2015, providing the future unified champion with the sternest test of his career. The 29-year-old appeared to have Joshua on the ropes when he wobbled him with a well-timed right hand. But he could not sustain the momentum and eventually became the 15th victim in a perfect knockout streak that has since extended to 20 fights. Ahead of his own heavyweight clash with Lucas Browne later this month, Whyte was asked whether Kiwi WBO world champion Parker could give Joshua problems on March 31. “Parker will come to fight but I believe what he brings to the table will work right into AJ’s hands,” Whyte told talkSPORT. “Because he is a ‘come-forward’ fighter, he’s not the strongest of guys and he’s not got the strongest defence and AJ will relish th...
