It was another hectic weekend for Tottenham Hotspur. Will it ever quieten down? Indeed, just hours after another Premier League defeat, this time at the hands of Newcastle, Spurs were dealt the blow that their number one target for the remainder of the window in Cody Gakpo had chosen he wanted to sign for Manchester City instead. Action Images via Reuters/Lee Smith The Lilywhites wasted no time in finding an alternative. A deal was agreed with Everton to sign Iliman Ndiaye for £60m. Richarlison will move in the opposite way. It’s an excellent piece of business, particularly this late in…
Early on, Itauma looked quicker and was able to land powerful punches at will. Hrgovic was knocked down in round two when he touched his glove to the canvas to help steady himself. It seemed like a matter of time before Itauma would stop Hrgovic. But Filip Hrgovic weathered the initial Itauma onslaught, and kept absorbing the thudding blows from a man eleven years his junior. Hrgovic was able to land a bit more as the fight progressed, but Itauma kept throwing and kept landing. Through eight rounds, Itauma had a 146-61 edge in punches landed. In Itauma’s fourteen pro…

LONDON – A drawn verdict couldn’t wipe the smile from Moses Jolly’s face even though it seemed he’d done enough to defeat Italian heavyweight contender Guido Vianello. In the end, after eight rough rounds, the referee and lone scorer Amy Pu, arrived at a 76-76 verdict here at the O2 Arena on the undercard ahead of Moses Itauma’s vacant IBF heavyweight title fight with Filip Hrgovic.Vianello landed occasional chopping rights in the first round but Jolly scored to the body as his corner urged him “to use his physicality.”Jolly, as the session progressed, found a home for his own right hand,…

The timing adds to his unease. There is still training to complete before fight week, on top of the substantial muscle loss he describes. Returning from middleweight may require a longer reduction, but reaching 147 is only useful if Benn retains the strength to compete there. The Prograis fight gives that concern a reference point. Algieri recalls Benn looking rough on the scale at 149 pounds. His objection to dismissing another two pounds is that they come at the end of an already extensive reduction. That challenges the idea that getting close to welterweight proves Benn can comfortably make it.…
A fair few videos have surfaced showing police intervene as fans clash in the streets after Wolves thrash Stoke 4-1. Officers can be seen hitting out with their batons as fans marched down the city centre, taunting, goading, trying to give it large. Wayne T Vernon captioned his post: “Who said Wolves was boring Ay 😱 Shutters went down before Cones and people came flying through my windows lol I guess Stoke didn’t like 4:1 as much as We did ⚽️🤣🤣🤣” The game itself saw Wolves, who had fallen behind to a screamer from Stoke’s Sam Gallagher two minutes in,…
The uppercut was a good punch. Hrgovic taking it doesn’t mean Itauma lacks power. It does show that landing cleanly wasn’t enough to make this opponent stop advancing. There was plenty of effort behind those shots. Itauma committed heavily, often overswinging instead of mixing lighter punches with his harder ones. After misses, he had to regain his balance or get away, adding more work to an already exhausting attack. CROWD ANGLE! The moment that SILENCED the O2 😳 #MosesHrgovic 🤳 pic.twitter.com/b2tWdvjgdl — DAZN Boxing (@DAZNBoxing) August 30, 2026 Hrgovic kept following, giving him little time to rest. Even after the…
(Esther Lin / Most Valuable Promotions) Chantelle Cameron added the WBC and WBA junior middleweight belts to the WBO title she already owned when she unanimously outpointed Mikaela Mayer over 10 exciting rounds in Birmingham, England. The scores, which told the right story, were 97-93 (twice) and 96-94. Mayer’s jab was pinpoint in the early going. Her movement, too, was hard to fault as she circled Cameron rather than moving forward in straight lines. Cameron was reduced to potshotting in the opening two rounds. Mayer, who like her opponent is one of the best fighters in the entire women’s code,…
