  • Mayweather Just Two Fights Away For Amir Khan?

    Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao won’t be around forever. I don’t see these two hanging around deep into their 40’s, trying to cling on to their glory days. Pacquiao keeps talking about retiring soon. Mayweather has already taken long breaks from the sport. Boxing needs to looks for its next marquee name. Golden Boy Promotions believe Amir Khan might be it.

  • Aftermath of the Hopkins – Dawson Title Fight

    Chad Dawson knew the 12 rounds against Bernard Hopkins were going to be tough and dirty. That’s how Hopkins fights. That’s how Hopkins has remained a Light Heavyweight champion at the age of 47. Dawson did look the bloodier of the two due to a nasty cut above his eye, but there was no doubt about the winner, the better boxer and the new WBC Light Heavyweight champion.

  • 9 Fighters Getting Knocked the F&*^ Out

    Knockouts don’t happen that often in boxing, at least not in the big fights, with the best fighters in the world. Guys don’t like getting knocked out in front of huge PPV audiences, so they just put up their gloves and wait for the storm to blow over, collecting their pay checks and take the loss. That’s what makes it even more special when it does happen.

  • Painting Yao Ming With a Basketball

    Yao Ming, for a almost an entire decade, was the most popular basketball player in the world. How do you measure popularity? All-Star voting is quite a good measuring stick.

  • Floyd Mayweather Can’t Stop Talking About Manny Pacquiao

    Floyd Mayweather gives the public what they want. Not during fights, when they want him to lose, or be a bit more exciting. But before and after. Whenever there’s a camera around, or a microphone. Miguel Cotto may be his next opponent but as usual, the target of his insults is Manny Pacquiao.

  • Svetlana Kuznetsova Fails to Notice She Beat Ana Ivanovic

    Svetlana Kuznetsova was so focused and ‘in the zone’ during her Fed Cup match against Ana Ivanovic she didn’t even notice she’d won it, only noticing the fact after walking back to her side before turning around, watching Ivanovic wait at the net.

  • Xavi and Puyol Cover Has to be Changed; Too Gay for Some People?

    While Barcelona players are mostly worried about saving their season and beating Chelsea a the Camp Nou in order to qualify for the Champions League, there other pressing issues regarding the team in Catalonia. Like finding less offending positions of Xavi and Puyol celebrating on a magazine cover.

  • Floyd Mayweather Between Villainy and Obama

    Floyd Mayweather is busy preparing for his fight with Migeul Cotto on May 5. Nothing else should matter now. Not his impending prison time, waiting for him after the fight, not the Manny Pacquiao mega fight that never transpired. Still, Mayweather has time fantasize about that fight and American president Barack Obama in his corner.

  • Rafael Nadal Too Much For Novak Djokovic in Monte Carlo Final

    Rafael Nadal kept one streak alive, and broke another. He won his 8th consecutive Monte Carlo Masters tournament, without dropping a set en route to his first title since the 2011 Roland Garros, while beating Novak Djokovic for the first time after losing to the world’s number one player in their last seven meetings.
