Morecambe boss Adam Lakeland expresses frustration after 1-0 defeat to Harborough in the National League North on Saturday afternoon. Harborough followed up their 1-1 draw at King’s Lynn on the opening day with their first ever win in the National League North at the weekend, while Morecambe have drawn and lost one. Riley O’Sullivan thought the put Harborough ahead on 32 minutes, only for it to be ruled out for offside. Morecambe also very near scored an own goal from a corner, well saved by Joe Young. Harborough were awarded a penalty on 48 minutes, with O’Sullivan stepping up and…
“Undercard bouts hidden behind subscription paywalls becoming a thing. (I’m thinking of Wynn Records, Zeus, of course, and now Prime video.) All well and good, I suppose, but I’m not sure this is the best way to build interest in up-and-coming boxers,” said Houston on X. Darshan Desai offered an example from the Claressa Shields undercard on Zeus. “I watched the Zeus undercard for Shields, it peaked at like 35k live viewers.” Thirty-five thousand viewers may satisfy a smaller streaming service, but it offers limited reach for prospects trying to establish a name. Most subscribers purchase access for the featured…
“Right away I called my legal team. I said, ‘Make the fight happen. I want to fight him,’” Lopez told Fight Hub TV. “I would have honestly taken the whole rest of the year off.” Romero simply smiled, declined to engage, and suddenly a personal rivalry was born. It is weak material from a fighter who previously commanded attention. Teofimo sounds flat, while Romero has abandoned the wild persona that once made his interviews entertaining. Neither man has provided a compelling reason for casual buyers to spend $80. A capable publicity team needs to step in and give both fighters…
Rodri says playing for Barcelona is a “dream” as he edges closer to a move from Manchester City to the LaLiga champions. It was reported on Sunday that Barcelona had agreed a deal with City for around £65m (€76.5m), with Rodri then flying there on Monday to complete his move and sign a reported four-year deal. Rodri led Spain to the World Cup over the summer, and has enjoyed a trophy-laden seven years with City, including winning the Champions League, in which he scored the winning goal against Inter. But the 30-year-old is now on the brink of returning to Spain, having…

Two teams desperate for success meet when England and Pakistan begin a three-Test series on Wednesday in Leeds.Neither has won a series of two Tests or more in almost two years.

England was blown away as coach Brendon McCullum overestimated and underprepared his side, and captain Ben Stokes lost faith in Bazball.ALSO READ | Manav Suthar: Plan was to bowl in good…
Staying at 154 pounds offers little upside. Defending his WBC interim belt never brought Ortiz closer to full champion status, nor did it deliver fights against Jaron Ennis, Sebastian Fundora or Xander Zayas. A prolonged promotional dispute with Golden Boy consumed the first half of 2026 before their July settlement, but division gridlock played an equal role in the delay. Middleweight at least gives Ortiz several opponents people recognize. Charlo is the biggest name on the list, but no one knows what he has left. He has fought once since May 2022, and another long layoff will not help him…
Salford City apologise to their fans after they suffered an ’embarrassing’ 3-1 opening day defeat to Barnet in League Two. Two sides that are eyeing a promotion this season, but it Barnet who came away with all three points, not the start the Ammies would have wanted. Salford have made some rather eye-catching signings this summer, including Luke Molyneux (from Doncaster), Macaulay Langstaff (from Millwall). Other additions include the likes of Elliot Bonds (from Fleetwood), Abraham Odoh (from Peterborough), Sam Long (from Bromley), Will Norris (turned down deal with Wycombe), Will Aimson (Wigan contract expired) and Joe Powell (Rotherham contract…
Liverpool’s summer transfer window has revealed a number of plot-lines, and while the start of the Andoni Iraola promises ambition, there has been plenty of reason for supporters to be concerned. After all, Liverpool are less than a week away from the start of the 2026/27 Premier League season, and there are holes across the field. Liverpool need more depth and dynamism in attack, and their defensive options are somewhat short too. However, during a 2-0 friendly win over Como on Sunday, the Reds enjoyed the emergence of Jeremy Jacquet, whose first-class performance alongside Virgil van Dijk will have allayed…
