Devin Haney Dominates the Ring with Hip-Hop Stars Skilla Baby and Tay B in Epic Title Fight Win.

 

Devin Haney was flanked by rap stars Skilla Baby and Tay B this weekend as he geared up for a monumental title fight against Regis Prograis. The electrifying atmosphere set the stage for Haney’s quest to become boxing’s latest multi-division champion, and he didn’t disappoint.

With the fight going the distance, Haney secured a unanimous decision, earning an impressive 120-107 score from all three judges. Prograis, facing off against ESPN’s No. 7 pound-for-pound fighter, simply had no answers for Haney’s prowess in the ring.

“I did everything that I said I was gonna do. Went in there and I handicapped him. We knew that he was gonna come in with a big left hand. We capitalized on his habit of leaning in. I hit him with big shots. I knew that I was hurting him,” Haney declared triumphantly after the fight. Prograis managed to land just 36 punches throughout the entire bout, with a meager conversion rate of 10%. In contrast, Haney dominated with an impressive 129 hits on his opponent.

With this victory, Haney now proudly holds the title of a two-division champion, even though he recently vacated his undisputed belt. The focus now shifts to what’s next for the rising boxing star, and the spotlight is on potential matchups with formidable opponents.

One enticing option is Gervonta Davis, a fighter in both the 135 and 140 weight classes. Despite the obvious appeal, Haney remains skeptical about the likelihood of this epic showdown. “Tank don’t want to fight because if he really wanted to fight, then he would be trying to build up the fight instead of trying to knock it down. If he really wanted to fight me, he would be making it that. It’s a big fight and it’s the best fight for boxing. But he only talked down on the fight. Like I said many times, they say everything but ‘let’s fight,’” Haney revealed in an interview with ESPN.

Another stellar option on the horizon is a potential clash with Ryan Garcia if Haney decides to stay in the 140 weight class. “For years and years we chased a Ryan Garcia fight. No one wanted to fight Devin Haney, and everyone used the excuse: ‘It’s not a big enough fight. No one knows who he is.’ When you’re too good, the only way you can entice people is to get paid to get beat. He sold out in a city that hasn’t had boxing in two decades,” highlighted Haney’s promoter regarding the prospect of a Garcia showdown.

As Devin Haney revels in his latest triumph, the boxing world eagerly awaits the announcement of his next formidable opponent, anticipating another thrilling chapter in his remarkable career.

Antonio Brown Questions LeBron’s Cool As Kevin Gates Courtside Chaos Unfolds

Honk Magazine

After Kevin Gates lit up the internet by questioning Savannah James’s support for her husband LeBron James, Antonio Brown is now questioning what LeBron will do next. In an instant that had people in double takes, Antonio Brown has thrown himself into a conversation nobody saw coming. By this point, momentum had reached a fever pitch, so Kevin Gates decided to rock the boat by going on record to say he didn’t like how people in Savannah’s hometown “viewed” LeBron and preferred receiving admiration from “white women.”

The responses rolled in in no time, Savannah shaded Gates casually with a Nicki Minaj meme, LeBron hit back by way of a poetic Instagram caption reminding us that “kings don’t concern themselves with the opinions of peasants.” But as soon as the dust settled, Gates surfaced courtside at the Lakers vs. Timberwolves playoff game unbothered and unfiltered alongside Brittany Renner. He looked like something people might whisper about in awe around the NFL. Brown, not being one to avoid controversy himself, also wondered why LeBron would have not only let Gates sit so up close and center but also so at such a high-profile game after that disrespectful comment.

This tension is about more than who sat where, but about a larger message. To others, LeBron’s lack of reaction and evenness of expression are a sign of peace. To some, Brown’s point of view raises a valid concern about boundaries and respect and the power of celebrity-based politics. We don’t know the verdict yet, but people are talking about this spicy crossroad of music, sports, and social media. When big names duke it out, the court isn’t the only arena where the temperature rises. Brown’s take may not be game-changing, but it’s written an entirely new chapter in this strange courtside story.

Simone Biles Soars to Historic Sixth Gold, A Gymnastics Legend’s Golden Triumph

Simone Biles

Simone Biles has etched her name into the history books once again, clinching her sixth Olympic gold medal in the women’s all-around final. This monumental achievement makes her the first American gymnast to reach such a pinnacle. Biles narrowly edged out Brazil’s Rebeca Andrade, who took silver, and her teammate Suni Lee, who secured bronze.

At 27, Biles has become the oldest all-around Olympic champion since Maria Gorokhovskaya in 1952 and joins an elite group as only the third woman to win multiple golds in this event. Despite a hiccup on the uneven bars, Biles dazzled on the balance beam and floor, overcoming a confidence-shaking mistake. “I was praying to every single God out there trying to refocus and recenter myself,” Biles confessed, adding a touch of humor about her uneven bars performance.

The gymnastics star debuted a new silver GOAT necklace, a nod to her status as the Greatest of All Time, embracing both the adoration and criticism it brings. “It’s crazy that I am in the conversation of ‘Greatest of all athletes,’” Biles said, reflecting on her extraordinary journey from Spring, Texas to Olympic glory.
