What happens when a world heavyweight MMA champion takes on a world-class goalkeeper in a fight? It’s a question that doesn’t really need an answer, and luckily, Francis Ngannou was just play fighting with Manchester United’s André Onana. Ngannou linked up with fellow Cameroonian Onana at Old Trafford in Manchester, England, and the two squared up on the pitch with big smiles on their faces. Then Ngannou gave Onana a taste of what it would be like if Ngannou got a hold of him, and “The Predator” took down Onana with a trip and mounted him. Onana, 28, stands 6-foot-3…

And while I take on board what the good folks at Cycling Weekly are saying by recommending you switch from steel to plastic, they’re heavy, so I’ve been thinking… why stop there? What about titanium?

GALAL Yafai scored the biggest win of his career, stopping former world champion Sunny Edwards in round six of their Birmingham headliner. “People underrated me. I boxed Kazakhs, Cubans, the greatest fighters in the world,” stated Yafai after his big win for the WBC Interim flyweight title. “Sunny’s a technical boxer, he’s at the top, a former world champion.

Even though Miami were able to beat Charlotte in a hard-fought 98-94 victory this past Wednesday, not all news was good in the South Beach camp, as Jimmy Butler had to leave that game early due to health issues. The Heat’s main star recently came back from an injury, so everyone was crossing their fingers hoping for the best. The small forward was experiencing physical pains during the match, which inevitably raised concerns among fans and the team’s staff, which ultimately led to him being taken out of the game for the entire final period. The Hornets then almost rallied…
Throughout the nearly three-decades of the UFC, there have been a handful of unforgettable and shocking upsets inside the octagon. On Friday, the UFC released a video on their YouTube channel highlighting the fights that stunned the MMA world, which includes a slew of UFC world title changes. The video kicks off with, more than likely, the most shocking result in the history of the promotion, as Georges St-Pierre defended the welterweight championship against Matt Serra — who earned his opportunity coming off of The Ultimate Fighter reality show. Despite nobody giving the nearly +900 underdog a chance, Serra became…
