“For me, I think Rocky Marciano was overrated,” Prograis said on social media. “He retired undefeated, right? But in this book, I bought this book about Sonny Liston. It said right here about Rocky Marciano that ‘his good fortune was to rise to prominence at a time when his major competitors were either old, like 37-year-old Joe Louis.’ He was 37 when he fought him. Joe Walcott was 37 years old. A natural light heavyweight like Ezzard Charles was 34 years old, and then Archie Moore was 41 at the time.” The overall point has some merit, but several ages…

In the opening weeks of the season, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal side have perhaps showcased that a new attacker isn’t necessarily a requirement in the final embers of the transfer window. Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard have scored two in two. Christos Tzolis has three assists in those two games and Bukayo Saka is back among the goals at club level as well. REUTERS/Hannah Mckay Everything is looking rather rosy at the Emirates Stadium right now but Arteta is still in a ruthless mood. Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus have both been alienated from the first-team picture and have been told…

Gian Piero Gasperini has warned Roma need reinforcements if they want to be competitive in 2026-27 ahead of their Serie A opener against Fiorentina. Roma finished last season in third, winning each of their last five league matches to pip both AC Milan and Juventus to a Champions League spot. They will play in UEFA’s premier competition for the first time since 2018-19. It was a largely successful first season in charge for Gasperini, who has bolstered his squad with the likes of Rodrigo Mora, Nahuel Molina and Santiago Castro. They have also tied down Paulo Dybala and Lorenzo Pellegrini…
Today, Marquez celebrates his 53rd birthday. And what a majestic career Marquez really does have to look back on. With nothing but immense pride and sheer satisfaction.

The two intense rivals ended up at 2-1-1 in favor of Pac-Man, but…
Moses Itauma’s promoters are doing him no favors by placing his fights behind a paywall before he has built a large following. At 21, the British heavyweight needs exposure far more than he needs to be presented as a PPV attraction. On August 29, Itauma faces 34-year-old Filip Hrgovic for the vacant IBF heavyweight title at London’s O2 Arena. DAZN is charging £24.99 in the UK and $59.99 in the United States for a one-off purchase. Fans are being asked to pay to watch an unproven 21-year-old headline against an opponent who is respected within boxing but has little drawing…

Sunday’s Premier League action saw Newcastle and Liverpool draw, Brighton thrash Villa, and Man City come back to beat Bournemouth. Upon his arrival at St James’ Park, Alexander Isak got not the warmest of welcomes should we say as he return to his former club. Newcastle fans booed his every touch and mocked with every chance that went ahead him. Then came the emotional scenes with everyone inside the stadium paying tribute to Kevin Keegan, who died in July aged 75. The game itself was an entertaining one, 5 minutes in, William Osula slipped the ball to Anthony Elanga to…
