Tatsuro Taira stays unbeaten with stoppage win over Alex Perez

The undefeated Tatsuro Taira earned the biggest victory of his UFC career with a second-round stoppage of Alex Perez in the main event of UFC on ESPN 58 at the UFC Apex. The fight certainly didn’t end the way Taira would have liked, however. Perez suffered a leg injury after Taira took him down with a unique body triangle while on his back. Perez fell awkwardly and yelled in pain when he hit the canvas. “It’s a special technique that only I can do,” Taira stated after the finish. Although it was a surprising ending, Taira (16-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC), 24, had started to […]

Maikel Garcia’s game-ending hit gives Royals win over Yankees

Maikel Garcia hit a game-ending two-run double off Yankees closer Clay Holmes, and the Royals recovered after squandering a brilliant start by Alec Marsh to beat New York 4-3 on Thursday and avoid a four-game sweep. Marsh took a no-hit bid into the seventh inning versus the major league-best Yankees (49-22), who had outscored the Royals 25-8 in the first three games of the series. He permitted Juan Soto’s leadoff single in that frame and then retired the next three batters to conclude his 96-pitch outing. “I thought we had a good game plan going in,” Marsh said. “Me and [catcher Freddy Fermin] were on the same page […]

England FA chief: We have a plan if Gareth Southgate exits

English Football Association (FA) chief executive Mark Bullingham insists a succession plan is in place should manager Gareth Southgate leave this summer but said there have been no discussions with any candidates or an approach from Manchester United for the England boss.
