The original offer disappeared once negotiations went to a purse bid. Top Rank’s winning bid left Davis with approximately $2.13 million, but his team withdrew from the mandatory position rather than accept the reduced amount. Davis was said to be seeking $5 million after management fees. Porter says demanding more money is understandable, but a fighter must remain realistic about his value and the opportunities attached to an offer. “I didn’t turn down any fights that I thought were a good fight for us, that we could win the fight, and that the pay was right. So, if all three…

Robert Garcia believes Jaron “Boots” Ennis will use world-title unifications to avoid Vergil Ortiz Jr., but Ortiz’s lack of a championship belt is the main reason the fight remains out of reach. Ennis is building his position at junior middleweight by targeting champions. Ortiz Jr. offers a bigger fight than several titleholders, but beating him would not move Ennis closer to becoming undisputed. Josh Kelly offers Ennis another championship and direct progress toward controlling the division. Vergil Jr. lost valuable time during his promotional dispute. While his career was stalled, Ennis remained active and surpassed him. Ortiz Jr. was unavailable…
The Championship has always enjoyed a slightly uneasy relationship with fairness. The top two teams spend 46 matches earning the cleanest reward in English football: finish there and promotion is yours. Finish third, however, and the equation changes completely. A season built on consistency suddenly becomes a knockout competition. That tension is about to become even more pronounced. From 2026/27, the Championship play-offs have expanded from four teams to six. Clubs finishing fifth to eighth enter single-match eliminators, while third and fourth advance directly to the two-legged semi-finals. The EFL says the change is intended to create more competitive fixtures…
The squad of players Mikel Arteta selected for Arsenal’s Community Shield victory on Sunday was very intriguing. While it included new signings Bruno Guimaraes and Christos Tzolis, it did not include some of the club’s key players from their Premier League title triumph. William Saliba and Jurrien Timber were both absent through injury but more eye-brow raising was the exclusion of Ethan Nwaneri, Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli. For Martinelli, in particular, it would have been a gutting blow on the eve of the new season to miss out on the squad. Martinelli entered Arsenal a boy. He looks set…
White recently claimed his team completed the television and venue deals. Hearn rejected that account because no arena agreement exists and Joshua’s signed contract requires the fight to be staged in Britain. “You didn’t do the venue deal because there’s no agreement on the venue, mate,” Hearn told iFL TV. “How can you? I should be suing Dana White for even going to MSG and having those conversations.” Hearn believes Nick Khan handled much of the work attributed to White. Khan may have participated in discussions with Netflix and MSG on behalf of Alalshikh, but that does not give White…
Guglielmo Vicario says he has fulfilled a “lifelong dream” after joining Juventus on a season-long loan from Tottenham. Vicario will join Luciano Spalletti’s side for the 2026-27 campaign, with Juventus having an €8m buy option at the end of the campaign. Juve have spent this transfer window searching for a new goalkeeper, with Emiliano Martinez and Zion Suzuki linked with the club before they turned their attention to Vicario. The Italian had hernia surgery back in March and had not featured for Spurs under Roberto De Zerbi, falling out of favour with Antonin Kinsky preferred. “It’s truly a great feeling, because…
Vida Kovai Kings made short work of Chepauk Super Gillies on Tuesday, winning the first TNPL-10 fixture at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium by five wickets.The Kovai outfit was always in control of the contest, apart from when Ram Arvindh (63, 32b, 7×4, 4×6) and Swapnil Singh (20, 19b, 2×4) were going strong in an 80-run stand for the fourth wicket. However, CSG lost wickets in clusters on either side of the partnership, getting bowled out for 167 in 19.3 overs.The Kovai Kings top-order of S. Radhakrishnan (38, 18b, 3×4, 3×6), S. Lokeshwar (40, 39b, 3×4) , and B. Sachin (37, 23b, 5×4,…
“I don’t think it’s right that you should fail the drugs test, come back and walk straight into a mandatory position,” Hearn told iFL TV. “I think Hamzah has been very hard done by. I’m not sure what he’s going to do.” The concern sounds generous coming from a promoter who does not represent Sheeraz. Its timing makes it look more like an early recruiting pitch. Sheeraz told The Ariel Helwani Show that his Queensberry agreement is nearing its end. “I’ve got one fight left with Frank Warren’s Queensberry. We’ve had a great relationship, and we’ll see what happens. We’ll…
