By Gav Duthie: Will AJ step aside for an undisputed fight between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk, or will he try to make history. There are only four people in the history of heavyweight boxing who have regained their titles in immediate rematches, and Anthony Joshua is one of them. Even doing it against Andy Ruiz Jnr in 2019 was impressive to do it again goes against the odds. Everyone agrees he needs to change his approach.

Coach Patrick Mouratoglou is a big fan of Gael Monfils’ game as he says the Frenchman is one of the few that bring craziness and make tennis more spectacular. On Saturday, Monfils handed a 7-5 7-6 (4) 6-3 loss to Miomir Kecmanovic to reach the Australian Open quarterfinal. “Gael is among the very few who bring craziness and make our sport more spectacular,” Mouratoglou tweeted.

Mouratoglou thinks Kecmanovic’s game now resembles the one of his coach. “It may sounds cliché but I…

For most Yahoo leagues, two more weeks have been added to the season, and this is great because gets rid of that ridiculous four-week matchup with no extra allowances for player pickups and also because it should make the regular season much more competitive. That means Week 15 is the last “normal” week before the Olympics begin, and note that next…

It remains to be seen whether the 2022 Tampa Bay Buccaneers will return with a future Hall of Fame quarterback in Tom Brady, or start over at the game’s most important position. Either way, head coach Bruce Arians sees next season as another championship push rather than the start of a rebuilding phase. “No, I think of it as a reload like it is every year. … We’ll see how many we can get back and then build the team from there,” Arians said Monday, a day after his team’s 30-27 loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional…

I’m fuming and fatigued about the doomed battle over voting rights legislation. Mad that, in 2022, there is still a need for laws to protect American citizens’ right to vote and tired of having to talk about why the protection is vitally important. My frustration was built over the last few months as the public discussion about the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act intensified — and devolved into a story about petty posturing and political gamesmanship. During the last weeks leading to the vote on those two bills, the story was posited as…

Former Zimbabwean cricket captain Brendan Taylor has foreshadowed a “multi-year” ban from the ICC for a four-month delay in reporting a match-fixing approach. The 35-year-old played 34 Tests, 202 One-Day Internationals and 45 T20 Internationals for Zimbabwe from 2004 to 2021.
