There were no knockdowns and very little suspense on the scorecards. Pili had a couple of decent rounds, but Taylor was too quick, too experienced, and far too accurate for the French challenger. From the opening bell, Taylor claimed the center of the ring and stalked Pili behind the jab. She followed with right hooks and quick combinations, often landing three or four punches before slipping away from the reply. The French challenger looked unsure of when to attack. She waited for Taylor to stop punching, but by then the 40-year-old had already changed position and was preparing to come…
There were no knockdowns, and Taylor was rarely in serious danger. It was a controlled farewell rather than another punishing war, with the 40-year-old boxing intelligently and refusing to give Pili the exchanges she needed. Taylor took the center of the ring immediately and began setting the distance with her jab. She pressed behind the lead hand, landed the right hook, and put together quick combinations before Pili could answer. Pili looked tentative during the opening two rounds. She waited too long for Taylor to finish punching and then found the target had already disappeared. Taylor moved her head, changed…
Manchester United have a new midfield, with Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos and Carlos Baleba replacing Casemiro and Manuel Ugarte, the latter having been ruled out for many months after suffering a knee ligament injury this summer. It wasn’t perfect by any stretch, but it was a more disciplined window than supporters have had to endure so often in recent years. INEOS decided against doing any deadline-day business, though many would argue that Michael Carrick is still short of a left-back to challenge Luke Shaw, who is out of contract at the end of the season.

Pierre Gasly has run the gamut from bitter disappointment to absolute elation in the past two days, and there is surely no better pick-me-up than claiming an extraordinary first Formula One pole position at the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, one of the sport’s greatest venues.What it meant to the Frenchman was clear. “Nine years I’ve been in Formula One, I’m trying to give my best every single weekend. It’s not every time we get a car to fight for pole position,” he said. “Today was the case. I’m really happy, really proud to have seized this chance and made…
Unai Emery believes Aston Villa did enough to win at Hull City and is confident his team’s Premier League goal drought will soon come to an end. Despite carving out several clear-cut chances at the MKM Stadium, Villa failed to get their campaign up and running on Saturday as they were held to a goalless draw. Ross Barkley, John McGinn and Emiliano Buendia passed up Villa’s best opportunities, as they won the expected goals (xG) battle by 1.74 to 0.58 but could not find a way past Konstantinos Tzolakis in the Hull net. Having failed to even register a shot…

Having qualified in fifth for the Italian Grand Prix, one place behind his Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc, who is 87 points off the lead, Hamilton was asked if it was time Ferrari gave him priority as their best chance for the title.“Yeah,…
There was no suspense in Molly McCann’s (5-0) unanimous decision win over Sylwia Doligala (8-3-2), with scores of 80-72, 80-73, and 79-73 telling the story. McCann came forward from the opening bell, kept her hands moving, and never gave Doligala enough room to become comfortable. The Polish fighter absorbed the pressure and stayed upright, but she spent most of the eight rounds backing away rather than producing meaningful offense of her own. By the later rounds, Doligala had swelling beneath one eye and blood across her vest from McCann’s steady combinations upstairs. There were no knockdowns or dramatic scares, just…
