Boxing legend Roy Jones Jr has stirred debate by claiming Terence Crawford deserves more appreciation than Floyd Mayweather because he “challenges himself.” Mayweather retired undefeated at 50-0 after stopping Conor McGregor in 2017 and is widely regarded as one of the greatest boxers ever. Crawford, meanwhile, cemented his own legacy by becoming a three-division undisputed champion, defeating Canelo Álvarez in September to move to 42-0. Speaking about who he rates higher, Jones told reporters: “To me, [Crawford] is, because he challenges himself. Floyd’s a great fighter—sharp, slick, one of the best ever—but he never really challenged himself the way Terence…

He argued that changing the legislation would strip fighters of vital protections. The original Ali Act safeguards boxers from exploitative contracts and ensures fair ranking systems. The proposed Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act seeks to form unified boxing bodies with independent titles and rankings, similar to the UFC model. The California State Athletic Commission unanimously endorsed the proposal, while the Association of Professional Boxing Commissions strongly opposed it. De La Hoya warned that such changes would…
With Weili Zhang vacating the UFC women’s strawweight championship to challenge Valentina Shevchenko, Mackenzie Dern now rules the 115-pound division.

Alexander Volkov moved one step closer to another UFC heavyweight title shot with a contentious split-decision win over Jailton Almeida at UFC 321 in Abu Dhabi. The towering Russian, who has long sought redemption after close losses to Ciryl Gane and a submission defeat to Tom Aspinall, appeared to be on the verge of another setback before the judges handed him a disputed victory. In the opening round, Almeida used his wrestling to take Volkov down with a high-crotch single-leg, controlling much of the frame until Volkov reversed position and landed several ground strikes — some appearing to hit the…

The U.S. current-account deficit narrowed sharply in the second quarter of 2025, signaling an improvement in economic balance and creating potential opportunities for increased investment. Data released this week shows the deficit fell by 42.9% compared to the previous quarter.

The improvement suggests that the U.S. economy is adjusting to global market dynamics while strengthening its external position. The current-account measures the nation’s international transactions, including trade in goods and services,…
