By: Sean Crose Give Jake Paul this – the man keeps active. After a major July novelty bout with Mike Tyson was postponed (if not outright scratched), the social media influencer turned professional boxer could have taken it easy. That sort of thing, however, simply isn’t Paul’s style. Instead of kicking back for the summer, Paul decided to challenge himself. Hence, the fighter known as “The Problem Child” will be facing bare knuckle attraction Mike Perry on Saturday night in Tampa, Florida. The scheduled eight rounder will be the main event of a DAZN pay per view card. While Perry…

The Utah Jazz and Golden State Warriors have reached an impasse, for now, in trade discussions for Lauri Markkanen. That blockage is around the inclusion of Brandin Podziemski and draft picks in a potential deal, according to NBA insider Shams Charania in a recent appearance on Sirus XM NBA Radio. The Jazz have asked for Podziemski and several unprotected picks and swaps in a trade. The Warriors are open to a deal involving Podziemski or significant draft compensation, but not both. If Utah is unable to trade Markkanen this summer, which would kick off a full rebuild, they are comfortable…

Months after UFC was nearing a deal that would potentially free them from facing accusations of antitrust practices in a legal setting ever again, they will soon find out if that beneficial agreement will actually come to fruition. Earlier this year, the promotion was ready to cut a check worth $335 million and agree to some contractual changes in exchange for eliminating a pair of class action lawsuits representing groups of fighters. This deal, while in the nine-figures, was significantly less than the potential billions of dollars that a lawsuit would cause in damages. And due to a waiver in…

Prospects D1Baseball Staff – July 15, 2024 TOP DAY ONE DRAFT BY A TEAM: Kendall Rogers: Colorado. I really struggled to choose between the Rockies, Cleveland and the Los Angeles Angels for the best day one of the MLB Draft, but I’m leaning the Rockies for a couple of reasons. First, you’ve got a bonafide superstar in hard-hitting Charlie Condon. The Golden Spikes Award winner had an incredible offensive campaign and fits perfectly with the offensive environment in the Mile High City. Texas lefthanded hitting slugger Jared Thomas is another stellar pick. Thomas is a hitting machine, is athletic and…
