The French giants have set their sights firmly on Youssef Chermiti. Football FanCast’s Verdict Credibility It’s not the first time that there’s been interest in Chermiti and Rangers have consistently remained…
Muhammad Ali is viewed by many as the greatest heavyweight of all time, but another boxing legend has disputed that claim. Ali became a three-time world heavyweight champion, with iconic wins over George Foreman in the ‘Rumble In The Jungle’ and Joe Frazier in the ‘Thrilla In Manila’ helping to add to his legacy. There are several others who managed to earn world honours in the banner division on three occasions, including Lennox Lewis and Vitali Klitschko, but the only man who has managed it on four occasions has stated his case for why he is greater than Ali. That…
Her 56 against West Indies was also at Lord’s – the venue for Sunday’s final – and steered her side for victory from a perilous position in their chase of 171.She is a crucial ballast in Australia’s line-up both with her experience and playing style. She has scored at a strike-rate of 135.03 at this tournament and has been able to find the boundaries when needed. But she also has the lowest dot ball percentage (30.9%) of all batters to have scored 1,000 runs in women’s T20 internationals.Despite becoming only an occasional bowler during the latter part of her career,…
Mohamed Salah said he and his Egypt team-mates had made history by beating Australia in a penalty shoot-out to book their spot in the last 16 of the World Cup. The teams played out a 1-1 draw after extra time at Dallas Stadium, with Emam Ashour’s first-half opener cancelled out by a Mohamed Hany own goal after the break. Harry Souttar and Lucas Herrington were unsuccessful from 12 yards for the Socceroos, and Hossam Abdelmaguid guided home the final spot-kick to give Egypt a 4-2 shoot-out triumph. Egypt are consequently only the second African nation ever to win a World…

The post came alongside a photo of the two facing off during happier times in their business relationship before Davis split from Mayweather Promotions. Tank’s latest message adds another name to an increasingly long list of fighters he has publicly challenged. Haney remains the most active discussion after Bill Haney revealed that his team rejected the reported 70-30 offer, saying they had previously turned down “50/50 of nothing” with PBC and would not accept “70/30 of nothing.” Shakur Stevenson has also remained part of the conversation, with the…
Dr. Barney Wainwright, senior research fellow at Leeds Beckett University, told BBC Sport earlier this week how altitude can affect athletes. “Maximum aerobic capacity at this kind of altitude usually drops around 10%,” Wainwright said. “And that has a knock-on to performance.”But would kicking off at 12:00 local time rather than 18:00 have made any difference?”If it is warmer, the heat can have a double whammy effect with altitude,” Wainwright explained.”When there’s less oxygen in the air, that means there’s less in the blood. That affects your ability to produce energy for the muscles and your exercise capacity.”It also takes…
(BoxingScene) BoxingScene Today for July 3, 2026 – Despite it being the 250th birthday of the United States of America tomorrow, Chris Algieri and Coach Robert Garcia are in-studio because, as they put it, “boxing never sleeps.” Algieri and Garcia begin by talking about Oscar De La Hoya’s hot take on a potential Ryan Garcia vs. Conor Benn fight, that “fans don’t want the fight.” Both men disagree with De La Hoya and wonder if he’s working a promotional angle by saying it. The topic then turns to Oleksandr Usyk relinquishing his championship belts in a move that…
