Brandon Royval spoils Moreno’s homecoming at UFC Mexico City

Brandon Royval was not the favorite Saturday night. Not in the betting odds, nor in the eyes of the fans in the building. Across the cage from him was Brandon Moreno, the first Mexican-born UFC champion who had yet to earn a UFC fight in his home country. With those cards stacked against him, Royval rose to the occasion, coming back from an early deficit to beat Moreno via split decision (48-47, 46-49, 48-47) in the flyweight main event of UFC Mexico City. The fight was very close, and when the scorecards were read, the sold-out crowd fell silent. Royval, though, had […]

Superb Arsenal rout Newcastle to keep pace with leaders

Rampant Arsenal stayed hot on the heels of the top two in the title battle with an emphatic 4-1 triumph over a struggling Newcastle United side in the Premier League on Saturday at a rocking Emirates Stadium. An own goal by Sven Botman and a simple Kai Havertz finish put the home side 2-0 up at the break following a siege on the Newcastle goal before Bukayo Saka and Jakub Kiwior struck in the second half to comfortably wrap up the points. Arsenal’s sixth successive Premier League victory this year took Mikel Arteta’s third-placed side to 58 points after 26 matches, two behind leaders Liverpool and a point adrift of Manchester City, who earlier won 1-0 at […]

Junto Nakatani TKO’s Alexandro Santiago for WBC bantamweight title

Junto Nakatani scored a sixth-round TKO triumph over Alexandro Santiago on Saturday in Tokyo to become the WBC bantamweight champion and claim his third division title. Japan’s Nakatani (27-0, 20 KOs) floored Santiago with a straight left in Round 6. Moments later, a crisp right hook sent Santiago to the canvas again as his corner quickly halted the one-sided action at 1 minute, 12 seconds. Nakatani, 26, won every round on all three scorecards. “Looking forward to everyone watching me fight at bantamweight from now on,” stated Nakatani, who trains in Los Angeles. He entered the fight rated No. 4 […]

Francis Ngannou eyes Ferreira-Bader winner after boxing match

Francis Ngannou is two weeks away from his second appearance in a professional boxing ring, but he’s already considering his eventual return to mixed martial arts. Ngannou (17-3) hinted Thursday on ESPN’s “SportsCenter” that he’d likely face the winner of Saturday’s heavyweight contest between 2023 PFL champion Renan Ferreira and Bellator MMA champion Ryan Bader. “I think the winner of this is the guy I’m going to fight in my MMA return,” Ngannou told ESPN. “It is my intention to return to the sport. When exactly, I think depends on March 8. [Ferreira and Bader] are both champions and one of them is going […]

Pirates, Mitch Keller agree to five-year extension

Right-hander Mitch Keller and the Pittsburgh Pirates are in agreement on a five-year, $77 million contract extension, sources tell ESPN, locking up another young core player as the team continues to try to return to the postseason for the first time in nearly a decade. The deal, which starts this year and ends after the 2028 season, will pay Keller $7.5 million in 2024 — more than $2 million above where he had settled with the team in arbitration, according to sources. In what would’ve been his final year of arbitration in 2025, Keller will receive $15 million. For the three free agent years […]

Hawks center Onyeka Okongwu (toe) out for ‘foreseeable future’

The Hawks are preparing to be without center Onyeka Okongwu for an indefinite period, leaving the team with serious front-line depth issues as it returns from the All-Star break. Coach Quin Snyder stated following Thursday’s practice Okongwu, who missed the final game before the break with a sprained left toe, “is not going to be available for the foreseeable future.” Snyder’s announcement was a surprise following initial expectations Okongwu would miss a week to 10 days. The loss of Okongwu, who has shared playing time with starting center Clint Capela, comes as Capela has missed the past six matches with a left adductor strain. Capela […]

Coco Gauff reaches Dubai quarterfinals after arguing with umpire

Coco Gauff rallied from a slow start and a second-set argument with the chair umpire to defeat Karolina Pliskova 2-6, 6-4, 6-3 and reach the quarterfinals of the Dubai Championships on Wednesday.

Verstappen dominates F1 preseason testing

Max Verstappen concluded the opening day of Formula One’s preseason testing in the same place that he finished last year’s championship — comfortably clear of the rest of the field. The first of three days of testing got underway at the Bahrain International Circuit on Wednesday, with the opening race of the season set to take place at the same circuit on March 2. While headline times in testing can be misleading, Verstappen’s advantage of 1.140s over nearest rival Lando Norris is an ominous sign for the rest of the grid, especially as it comes off the back of two successive seasons of […]

Porto stun Arsenal with last-gasp winner in UCL 1st leg

FC Porto snatched a shocking last-gasp 1-0 win against Arsenal with Galeno netting a sublime effort deep in stoppage time in their Champions League round-of-16 tie Wednesday. A drab clash was deadlocked until the fifth minute of added time, when Galeno curled an unstoppable effort past David Raya to send the Estadio Do Dragao crowd wild. Arsenal, who had scored 21 goals in their past five Premier League matches, were strangely subdued in attack and failed to register an effort on target throughout a cagey contest. It was the first time Arsenal failed to have a shot on goal in a Champions League match since a 3-1 loss to […]
