Brock Lesnar's Matches Keep Getting Harder To Watch
For the last few years, Brock Lesnar has undoubtedly been the WWE performer who feels most like a “star” every time he appears.

Kickboxing Superstar Gökhan Saki Is Ready To Shake Up The UFC
There’s not a ton of top-line UFC talent fighting this fall.

No Justice For Good Boys
“WHORE the ramparts, weeee watched...” Some lady was singing the national anthem. “WHORE the lan-nnddd of the freeee...” We don’t care about that. We don’t care about any of that. We only want the Grade-A violence, now. ...
Adalaide Byrd Must Have Slept Through The Middle Rounds
Saturday night’s middleweight bout between Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez was a good one. The two judges who didn’t shock and appall viewers with their scorecards had it as a close one—Dave Moretti had it as a narrow (115-113) Golovkin win, while Don Trella had it as a 114-114 draw. All three j...

Boxers will usually preen and maybe even scuffle with each other at weigh-ins to scare up interest for their match, but when has a fighter’s small child ever punched his rival in the penis? ...
Who Is Saúl "Canelo" Álvarez?
Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez may be the world’s most popular boxer, and yet he has a problem: He lacks credibility among the sport’s largest fan bases, Mexicans and, increasingly, Mexican-Americans. Questions about Álvarez’s boxing skill extend beyond these two groups, but since he is Mexican, attempting t...
Asshole Rushes To Asshole's Defense
We haven’t heard from world-class shitbag Floyd Mayweather Jr. that much since he beat Conor McGregor in an extravagant fake boxing match and thank God, because he’s an evil moron. His latest extended interview with Hollywood Unlocked does a lot to cement that notion, and if you want to hear about w...
Daniel Cormier Is The UFC Light Heavyweight Champ Again, Whatever That Means Now
On July 29, Jon Jones completed his long redemption arc by knocking out Daniel Cormier with a vicious head kick in the third round, winning the UFC light heavyweight belt back in the process.

Brian Kelly Can't Resist An Opportunity To Be Passive-Aggressive
Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly has turned a page in preparation for this football season. He’s learned from his mistakes that led his program to going 4-8. He—ah, hold up while he gets exceptionally bitchy as he argues the difference between one point and one possession after losing 20-19 to Geor...
There Was Skins-On-Skins Fighting In The Washington Stands Today
Football’s not back until the fans are brawling, and thankfully, we didn’t have to wait long. The Eagles defeated Washington today, but some hot-blooded Skins fans really wanted to come home feeling a win (apologies for any neck pain caused by trying to watch this video):...

An anonymous former Notre Dame student filed a lawsuit on August 17 on St. Joseph’s County Circuit Court alleging that a football player raped her in his dorm room in January 2016 and that instead of dealing with the alleged assault, as she requested, the school mishandled it and swept it under the...
Yet Another UFC Main Event Derailed By Last-Second Medical Issue
This weekend, Demetrious Johnson was supposed to fight Ray Borg and go for the all-time record for consecutive UFC title defenses.
