Why Alfie Davis is confident he can exploit Gadzhi Rabadanov in PFL 9 final
Alfie Davis sees a kink in Gadzhi Rabadanov's armor – especially in five-round fights. Davis (19-5-1) meets Rabadanov (26-4-2) in Friday's 2025 PFL World Tournament 9: Finals headliner (ESPN, ESPN+) at Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte, N.C. The last time Rabadanov tasted defeat was in a five-round decision loss to Mehdi Dakaev in December 2020. Davis took a lot from that fight. "I definitely went back to when he lost because although he's been on a bit of a streak, I think people just stylistically and tendencies are still the same," Davis told MMA Junkie Radio. "Even myself, I still have tendencies and stuff that I do when I first started kickboxing. I just think your body is designed in certain ways. So, I definitely looked at his last loss, and it was a five rounder. So, he got exploited in that one when he lost in the five rounder. "He got tired. His style of boxing didn't really lend to the style that this guy was using, so I watched that. Also, I've been watching even his recent wins. Some of them, he's had some edgy moments, like particularly his fight against J.J. Wilson. He nearly lost that fight. There were some other fights where they were quite close, and he's made some stuff that I feel like I can exploit." Davis has surprised many with his route to the finals by taking out veterans Clay Collard and Brent Primus. He understands how life changing the $500,000 can be but insists that winning a world title has more value to him. "I keep pinching myself, and I'm like, wow, if I win this money, it's mad what it can do for me and my family," Davis said. "But equally I've got a job to do, and I think winning the title and what that represents will mean more to me. I've always had this inclination that I'm going to earn a lot of money in my life. I feel like I work hard, I educate myself. "So, I feel like it's only a matter of time before I earn a lot of money. But there's not a lot of time where you become a world champion. I've got a certain window where I can do that. So, the money is a big deal, don't get me wrong, but it's more about me performing and showing what I've been working so hard on for so many years."

Disney's 3Q profit climbs on strength of domestic parks, streaming; strikes deal with WWE
Disney's profit and revenue climbed in its fiscal third quarter as the entertainment company continued to add subscribers to its streaming service and see strength at its domestic theme parks. It also raised its full-year adjusted earnings forecast on Wednesday and announced a deal with WWE that will see the sports entertainment company's premium live events, like WrestleMania , streamed by ESPN. The Walt Disney Co. earned $5.26 billion, or $2.92 per share, for the three months ended June 28. A year earlier it earned $2.62 billion, or $1.43 per share. Excluding certain items, earnings were $1.61 per share. This easily beat the $1.46 per share analysts polled by Zacks Investment Research were looking for. Revenue for the Burbank, California, company totaled $23.65 billion, falling slightly short of Wall Street's estimate of $23.68 billion. Disney subsidiary ESPN struck a rights agreement with TKO Group's WWE to become the exclusive U.S. domestic streamer of the sports entertainment company's premium live events starting next year. Aside from gaining access to WrestleMania, ESPN will also air marquee events such as the Royal Rumble, SummerSlam and Survivor Series. The wrestling events will be available on ESPN's new streaming service, which is set to launch next month, with select ESPN cable channels also airing them. Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed, but The Wall Street Journal said that it's a five-year deal worth more than $1.6 billion. 'Sports is the big headline coming out of Disney's latest earnings report, and for good reason. Live sports programming (like WWE Premium Live Events) amasses captive audiences that advertisers crave, and Disney is prioritizing programming with the highest ad revenue potential," Mike Proulx, Forrester vice president, research director, said in an emailed statement. Last night the NFL announced that it had entered into a nonbinding agreement with ESPN. Under the terms, ESPN will acquire NFL Network, NFL Fantasy and the rights to distribute the RedZone channel to cable and satellite operators and the league will get a 10% equity stake in ESPN. Revenue for Disney Entertainment, which includes the company's movie studios and streaming service, edged up 1%, while revenue for the Experiences division, its parks, increased 8%. Disney's direct-to-consumer business, which includes Disney+ and Hulu, posted quarterly operating income of $346 million compared with a loss of $19 million a year ago. Revenue climbed 6%. The Disney+ streaming service had no change in paid subscribers domestically, which includes the U.S. and Canada. There was a 2% rise internationally, which excludes Disney+ HotStar. Total paid subscribers for Disney+ came to 128 million subscribers, up from 126 million in the second quarter. Disney+ and Hulu subscriptions totaled 183 million, up 2.6 million from the second quarter. In the fourth quarter, Disney anticipates that total Disney+ and Hulu subscriptions will increase more than 10 million compared with the third quarter, with most of the increase coming from Hulu due to the expanded Charter deal, CEO Bob Iger and Chief Financial Officer Hugh Johnston said in prepared remarks. The company expects a modest increase in the number of Disney+ subscribers in the fourth quarter. Iger and Johnston also said that Disney will stop reporting the number of paid subscribers for Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ streaming services because the metric has become less meaningful for evaluating the performance of its businesses. The company will stop reporting the metric for Disney+ and Hulu beginning with fiscal 2026's first quarter and will no longer report the figure for ESPN+ starting with fiscal 2025's fourth quarter. The Experiences division, which includes Disney's six global theme parks, its cruise line, merchandise and video game licensing, reported operating income increased 13% to $2.52 billion. Operating income climbed 22% at domestic parks. Operating income declined 3% for international parks and Experiences. Disney announced in May that it will build a seventh theme park in Abu Dhabi. 'We have more expansions underway around the world in our parks and experiences than at any other time in our history,' Iger said in a statement. "With ambitious plans ahead for all our businesses, we're not done building, and we are excited for Disney's future.' For fiscal 2025, Disney now anticipates adjusted earnings of $5.85 per share. It previously predicted $5.75 per share. Analysts surveyed by FactSet expect full-year earnings of $5.80 per share. While Disney continues to pull levers to successfully manage all of the different components of its business, it's also working on its search for a successor to Iger, the face of Disney for most of the past two decades. Disney created a succession planning committee in 2023, but the search began in earnest last year when the company enlisted Morgan Stanley Executive Chairman James Gorman to lead the effort. Disney does have some time, as Iger agreed to a contract extension that keeps him at the company through the end of 2026. Disney is looking at internal and external candidates. The internal candidates are widely believed to include the chairman of Disney-owned ESPN, Jimmy Pitaro, Chairperson of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Josh D'Amaro, Disney Entertainment Co-Chairman Alan Bergman and Disney Entertainment Co-Chairman Dana Walden. Shares of Disney declined more than 3% in morning trading. Michelle Chapman, The Associated Press
