MERE minutes had gone by after Jaron Ennis had swiped away David Avanesyan, as expected, before heads turned to who or what could be next for the IBF welterweight champion. It was Ennis’s first defence of the title proper, first fight under new promoter Eddie Hearn and the first time in six years he had fought in his home city of Philadelphia.

Dustin Poirier has a list of names. At UFC 302, Poirier fell short in his bid to become lightweight champion, losing by fifth-round submission to Islam Makhachev. Following the bout, Poirier suggested it may have been his final fight in MMA, but in the past few weeks, “The Diamond” has walked that back, saying he still feels the urge to compete.

Following his Tour de France stage 16 win, sprinter Jasper Philipsen recognised that he now had a small chance of conquering the green jersey for a second year running. But with only hilly or mountainous stages and a time trial left in this year’s Tour, the Belgian star was definitely not counting his ‘points chickens’ before they were hatched.“About 5%,” Philipsen responded when asked how great his chances were of wearing green on the final podium of the Tour de France, which will now hinge on points won and lost in the four remaining intermediate sprints between Nîmes and Nice.Philipsen…
