D’Angelo Russell falters late as Lakers drop Game 1

As much as the story of the Los Angeles Lakers’ season has been centered on the team looking to make up for its flameout in the Western Conference finals a year ago to pursuit a championship, there’s also been a personal redemption arc for point guard D’Angelo Russell. However Saturday’s 114-103 Game 1 loss to the Denver Nuggets, where Russell missed 13 of his final 16 shot attempts and scored 13 points, brought to mind some of his past struggles. “D-Lo is a huge reason why we’re here in the first place,” Lakers coach Darvin Ham said. “I’m not going to bail out on my […]

Max Holloway wins BMF with last-second KO of Justin Gaethje

The BMF title is not a real championship, but Max Holloway did the gimmick proud on Saturday night with an explosive last-second knockout of Justin Gaethje at UFC 300 in Las Vegas. Holloway (26-7), a former featherweight champion competing at lightweight in this fight, was in control from the start, with faster hands and elusive footwork that made it difficult for Gaethje (25-5) to find him. For Gaethje, the defending BMF belt holder, the fight became increasingly difficult after Holloway connected with a spinning back kick to the face right before the horn to end Round 2. The kick busted up Gaethje’s nose, and […]

A-Rod, Lore eyed Wolves payroll cuts, concerning Taylor

As part of a failed process to assume majority ownership, Minnesota Timberwolves minority partners Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez submitted financial projections forecasting a sizable retreat in roster payroll that majority owner Glen Taylor considered would jeopardize the franchise’s ability to compete for a championship, sources told ESPN. In documents shared with Taylor, the NBA and The Carlyle Group, a private equity firm, Lore and Rodriguez rendered a budget projection as potential majority owners that would’ve lowered the Timberwolves’ payroll to $171 million starting next season — below the projected $172 million luxury tax threshold, sources told ESPN. The Timberwolves would’ve gone […]

Formula One owner Liberty Media announces MotoGP takeover

Formula One’s United States-based owner Liberty Media have revealed a takeover of MotoGP’s parent company Dorna, valuing the world’s leading motorcycle racing championship at €4.2 billion ($4.53bn), MotoGP said in a statement on Monday.

Georgia challenge Six Nations spoon side Wales to Test match

Georgia, winners of the Rugby Europe Championship, have publicly challenged Six Nations wooden spoon side Wales to a test match as they push for inclusion in the Northern Hemisphere’s top-tier competition. Italy are usually the target when the subject of Six Nations relegation is discussed, but Wales have been roped into the debate after they lost to the Italians on the final day of this year’s competition last weekend to conclude the tournament without a victory.

England scrum-half Danny Care undecided on international future

England scrum-half Danny Care will assess his international future over the coming days but has not yet called time on his Test career. Care, 37, won his 101st Test cap against France on Saturday as England concluded the Six Nations with three victories from five. He featured in all five matches for Steve Borthwick’s side, starting against Scotland and coming off the bench in their wins over Italy, Wales and Ireland as well as their heart-breaking 33-31 defeat to France in Lyon on Saturday. England will play a Test against Japan and two in New Zealand this summer, but Care has not yet made a call […]

Canelo fighting Munguia

The latest winner of the Canelo Alvarez sweepstakes is Jaime Munguia, who beat out Jermall Charlo and Edgar Berlanga to land a May 4 fight in Las Vegas versus boxing’s top star. With that fight comes a chance at boxing championship glory, and of course, the biggest payday of Munguia’s career. Munguia (43-0, 34 KOs) enters the undisputed super middleweight championship fight on the heels of a career-best performance, a ninth-round TKO victory over John Ryder in January. Munguia has improved greatly under the guidance of Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach. And now he’ll meet his countryman on Cinco de Mayo weekend. Canelo-Munguia […]

Verstappen wins again, skirting questions of Red Bull future

After comfortably winning the Saudi Arabia Grand Prix on Saturday, Max Verstappen and Red Bull are cruising toward another championship season. Both, however, are refusing to be the first to blink in the deepening mystery regarding the three-time Formula One world champion’s future beyond 2024. The sort of victory witnessed at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit on Saturday night is what we’ve come to expect from this dominant Red Bull outfit. Verstappen led from pole, only briefly dropping to second after an early Safety Car, and was so far out in front that he was turning down his engine setting late on. It was utterly […]

David Benavidez: ‘I’m not going to be waiting on Canelo’

David Benavidez sat on the ring apron at the downtown BOXR Gym and wrapped his hands — just because the Canelo Alvarez fight he has pushed so hard to land seems farther away than ever, it doesn’t mean the work stops. Alvarez has long stated Benavidez (and other fighters) must earn a shot at boxing’s top star, and there’s no doubt following his breakthrough campaign last year that Benavidez did exactly that. He brutalized Caleb Plant in a March decision victory and followed with a sixth-round TKO triumph over Demetrius Andrade in November. The calls for an Alvarez-Benavidez matchup for […]

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 […]
