Boxing's Megafight is finally happening
“Finally,”, is what boxing fans are saying and only The Rock could say it better when the news became public that Errol Spence Jr and Terrence Crawford had reached a to fight July 29th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. No, this is not a test from the emergency broadcast system, and I don’t believe we’ve all woken up somewhere else in the multiverse.

Gervonta Tank Davis blurred Hector Luis Garcia's eyesight to get the TKO at the start of the ninth
There were a lot of impactful fights on this card, let's see how each one faired.

Demetrius Andrade defeated Desmond Nicholson in his debut in the super middleweight division
Demetrius Andrade at the opening bell was aggressive and the more physical fighter as he cruised to a unanimous decision victory against Desmond Nicholson. Andrade’s debut at super middleweight 168 lbs went as well as you could script it minus the knockout. Andrade wasted no time imposing his will, dominating NIcholson with uppercuts, straight left hands, combinations, and counter punches. Nicholson could not find the range where he could comfortably execute his gameplan.

Against Tim Tsyzu.

Caleb Plant wants to silence critics in his next fight
Last time we saw Caleb “Sweet Hands” Plant in action was against Saul “Canelo” Alvaez November 6, 2021, for the undisputed super middleweight championship. Plant gave the future hall of famer a great competitive fight despite not having a great training camp which I believe was due to overwhelming circumstances that to this day he won’t use as an excuse. Plant was stopped in the 11th round after being knocked down twice.
Deontay Wilder is getting out of his comfort zone in order to grow as a fighter
Quitting is easy. That's why a lot of people do it. So, what would motivate a former ex-champion who is well-off financially and has achieved both Olympic and professional success? In pro sports, "it can’t just be on you, it’s got to be in you," said by the great Nipsey Hustle. Passion is like an involuntary muscle next to the heart, or some other cool sci-fi explanation you can think of to describe what separates the greats from the rest.

What Courage Looks Like | By Cody Zeller
In Charlotte, I usually get recognized for being a basketball player. Either that or just a tall guy who still looks a little lost walking around downtown. But Elizabeth knew me first as a cartoon character. Elizabeth is the 13-year-old girl I met last Tuesday on a visit to Hemby Health Children’s Hospital in Charlotte. We actually met for the first time two years ago, but it took me a moment to recognize her this time.
One-Pointer | By Jeremiah Bonsu
In 2013, my freshman year at Dayton, I went to our gym, the RecPlex, every day. I’m talking every single day. Classes were done? Off to the Rec. I probably spent more time hooping than I spent in my dorm room. And pretty early on, I think other kids noticed. But not like, Oh, that kid’s really good at basketball. Nah, it was more like, Oh, that Jeremiah kid down the hall? He’s a weirdo. He never goes out. He doesn’t like to drink. I guess they were right. I didn’t want to drink. I wanted to ball.

You have this gold medal around your neck and you go back to your hometown and they have a parade for you down Main Street. Thousands and thousands of people show up.
An Open Letter to the Undrafted
Undrafted fam, First of all, welcome to the club. I wish I could say it was a more exclusive one. Every year, I’ll usually tweet you guys some words of encouragement, but this year I wanted to do a little more than that. For some of you, I’m sure this past draft night was a big disappointment, hearing name after name get called without any of them belonging to you. But for many more of you, I bet last Thursday night went … pretty much how you expected. I know that was the case for me in 2008.
Bread & Butter | By Stanley Johnson
If there was a way to describe my rookie season, only one word comes to mind: encouraging. For rookies, their adjustment to the league is based solely on how their new team plans on using them. Some will be asked to jump-start the rebuilding phase of a franchise right away. Others will have to sit the bench and learn the game before cracking the rotation. Very few rookies experience both extremes. I’m one of the few.

Study: Type 2 diabetes pill Jardiance cuts risk of death - The Monitor: Us News
