Fans react to Wolves’ training being cancelled due to Tolu Arokodare’s refusal to leave the pitch having been asked not to train with squad. Nathan Judah stated that the new boss Cesar Peixoto wasn’t tolerating ‘player power’ and poor discipline levels during Monday’s session. Extra security enforced was needed at Compton Park on Tuesday to make sure he was not at training ground, with the 25 year old footballer not included in the squad the friendly at Maidenhead. @wolvesfancast tweeted: “The exclusion of Tolu by Cesar Peixoto has been met with the approval of the #wwfc squad. The group feeling…
Devin Haney has signed a multi-fight deal with DAZN. His first bout under the agreement is expected to be a mandatory WBO welterweight title defense against Keyshawn Davis. Dan Rafael reported the signing Wednesday and cited a source. The report follows weeks of speculation about Haney’s broadcast future. DAZN had not issued an official announcement at the time of publication. Haney’s arrival gives DAZN another marquee name at welterweight after Teofimo Lopez joined the platform. Ryan Garcia is also projected to return following his September 12 fight with Conor Benn. That would give DAZN an opportunity to build several major…
For now, Liverpool supporters are left with more questions than answers.Since completing its takeover of the club in October 2010, Fenway Sports Group, then known as New England Sports Ventures, has established itself as a steady and reliable custodian.The American ownership group has overseen sustained success on and off the pitch, with Liverpool winning two Premier League titles, the Champions League, FA Cup, League Cup, Super Cup and Club World Cup since 2019.Therefore, the prospect of new investors, and potentially new ideas and approaches, inevitably raises questions, particularly if they are entering elite-level sport for the first time.Liverpool supporter Neil…
Morning everyone. After a lot of speculation about William Saliba’s back injury over the last few weeks, the one thing we definitely knew was that he had a big problem. Whether it would require surgery or not, and how long he’d be out for, were uncertain. The reports varied, which is why it was interesting to see Arsenal address it yesterday by releasing a statement. I’ll reproduce it here, because the link on the website may or may not work: William Saliba has returned to us from World Cup duty, where he played an integral role in France reaching the…
It was announced last month that Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez’s comeback fight against Christian Mbilli, originally scheduled for September 12 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, had been pushed back to October. The former undisputed super-middleweight world champion has now revealed why. Canelo lost all four of his world titles last year to Terence Crawford, but the American’s subsequent retirement saw the belts scattered, allowing the Mexican to immediately book a world title shot on return against new WBC champion Christian Mbilli. The fight had been confirmed for September 12, though it was announced in June that it would now take place in…
To put it simply, the testing could help to combat micro-dosing. This is where tiny amounts of performance-enhancing drugs are ingested but are in and out of the rider’s system within a few hours, leaving only a short window for detection.If a rider knows they have a seven-hour window where they are not normally tested, some believe it could be an opportunity to micro-dose. Vaughters said: “If you introduce a low enough dose of a peptide hormone, the clearance time can be four hours. If you take it at 11pm, it’ll be out of the system at 3am, so it…
Tyson Fury’s comeback victory last April did little to impress Tim Bradley. While many praised the former heavyweight champion for shaking off a year of inactivity, the Hall of Famer believes Fury should have produced a far more convincing performance against Arslanbek Makhmudov. Bradley also wants to see Fury make a stronger statement when he returns Friday against Mariusz Wach before a potential fight with Anthony Joshua. In Bradley’s view, Fury’s unanimous decision over Arslanbek Makhmudov received far more praise than it deserved. “Obviously, the light at the tunnel is Anthony Joshua. Anthony Joshua got to take care of business,…

Mateus Fernandes scored what he described as the best goal of his career just three minutes into his Tottenham debut, as they beat MK Dons 1-0 in a friendly on Wednesday. Roberto De Zerbi’s side kicked off their pre-season campaign with a behind-closed-doors meeting with the League One side at Hotspur Way. And Fernandes – an £85m signing from relegated West Ham – only needed a few minutes to make an impact as he met a half-cleared corner with a brilliant volley from the edge of the area, which flew into the top-right corner. Fernandes partnered Sandro Tonali, who quickly succeeded…
(Mark Robinson / Goldstar Promotions) Tyson Fury has made a bold claim about his one and only spar with Anthony Joshua back in 2009. The pair are due to finally face off later this year after nearly a decade of back-and-forths. Both Fury and Joshua must overcome so-called “warm up fights” this week to set up the long-awaited showdown. Fury will face Mariusz Wach in Pattaya, Thailand, whilst Joshua takes on Kristian Prenga in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Fury and Joshua may finally square off this year but it won’t be the first time the pair have been in a ring…
