Last night saw Wladimir Klitschko take on Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium, with Joshua winning in the eleventh round by technical knockout.
The fight had an in-ring attendance of 90,000 people - which made it the most-attended boxing match since 1939. As you can imagine, there's more than likely going to be a few famous names and celebrities turn up ringside for the fight, but one couple spotted seemed to capture Twitter's attention on the basis of the complete mismatch.
Jay Z and Barry Chuckle from the Chuckle Brothers.

This is not a drill. I repeat...not a drill.

Yes, the idea of a rapper and a beloved children's entertainer sitting next to one another at a fight is enough to get anyone excited, but like so much of what we see on the Internet, it's too good to be true.
As it turns out, the image in question is fake - and Paddy Power have taken responsibility for it, as well.
CLARIFICATION: Barry Chuckle did not attend #joshuaklitschko with Jay Z. We made this picture up back in 2015. Soz. https://t.co/wDLhWaS0xL

Not only that, they've used the joke more than once.
