While many might know Steven Cairns from his vast social media presence, there is far more to him than what you see on Instagram or TikTok.That is part of the journey, of course. A fighter’s digital footprint is increasingly important when it comes to deals in and out of the ring, but Cairns’ story has been a slow build from the start.He didn’t wake up with 130,000 followers on Instagram. His journey didn’t start at the 3Arena in Dublin, where he boxes on Saturday.But it has involved a lot of sacrifice along the way.He recently turned 24 and, asked whether…
Chelsea are in advanced talks to sign Brighton striker Danny Welbeck.The 35-year-old is keen on moving to Stamford Bridge and there is optimism from Chelsea’s side that a deal can be concluded. The Blues are looking for experience because of an acceptance that their model of signing young players needs a “tweak” – according to influential owner Behdad Eghbali in April – and Welbeck could be a good fit.He scored a career-high 13 league goals in 37 games for Brighton last season, taking his tally to 51 goals in 201 matches since joining from Watford in 2020.Brighton have declined to…

Like many judged sports, there are two main factors to balance when scoring an artistic gymnastics routine – difficulty and execution.The two scales being used to allocate points are the ‘D-score’ for difficulty and the ‘E-score’ for execution, each having a dedicated panel of multinational judges who have been approved by the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG).The scores produced by each of these panels – following any ‘neutral deductions’ – are then combined to give the gymnast a final score, either as a standalone result for the individual events or a combined score across multiple events for the all-around contests.The biggest…
Patrick Shields | 12:00am BST 26 July 2026 For most of its history, cricket was a sport governed by feel. A captain moved a fielder because something in the batter’s stance looked uncertain, a selector backed a bowler because he had taken wickets on that ground before, and a coach adjusted a technique because it did not look right. Those instincts have not disappeared, but they now sit alongside an enormous evidence base. Every delivery in a top-tier match is measured for speed, seam position, release point, bounce and deviation, then cross-referenced against thousands of comparable balls. The same infrastructure…

The emotional burden was obvious afterwards as he struggled to speak during his post-fight interview.His recent results and performances do raise eyebrows. Since the end of 2023,…
Langton’s scans showed swelling and bruising, results which meant he was allowed to leave hospital on Saturday night.”A little bit sore and a little bit stiff but that is to be expected,” he said of his condition.”I can’t really complain too much.”Before his fall, Langton was attempting to move into a handstand position on the high bar but lost his grip and fell head first on to the mat. There was a lengthy delay to the competition before Langton was taken away on a trolley and then a stretcher.”Once I went up and both hands have left the bar that…

I wanted to get him out of there, but after that I couldn’t let my hands go the way I wanted. I…
