How to watch the 2025 NFL preseason:
Many NFL preseason games are broadcast on local channels, so if you're looking to catch an in-market game, it may be as simple as turning on your TV (or setting up a digital TV antenna). If you want to watch out-of-market games, a $7/month subscription to NFL+ will get you access to NFL Network, which will have every out-of-market game in the preseason. The downside of NFL+? When it comes to the regular season, it's a much less helpful option because there are far fewer NFL Network games during the regular season.

'This isn't YouTube' - talks continue for Joshua v Paul
Anthony Joshua could receive a career-high pay day to fight Jake Paul as their teams continue to hold talks over a bout in 2026. Eddie Hearn, Joshua's promoter, says it is likely the fight could be the Briton's next. Joshua is a two-time heavyweight world champion with 32 professional fights, while American Paul, who rose to fame on YouTube, has 13 bouts to his name. "At first I thought it was a publicity stunt from Jake and now the more I speak to them the more I actually understand - Jake Paul thinks he can beat Anthony Joshua," Hearn told BBC Sport. "This is a step too far. So be careful what you wish for, because this isn't a game. "This isn't YouTube. This isn't Disney. This is the danger zone." Both teams denied conditions could be part of the fight, like when Paul fought long-retired and then 58-year-old Mike Tyson last November. That contest had bigger gloves and a maximum of eight rounds, each limited to two minutes. Most Valuable Promotions CEO Nakisa Bardian, who set up MVP with 28-year-old Paul, says he is "not worried about safety at all". "This would be pursued as a straight up professional fight," said Bidarian. "I think there's certainly an experience gap between the two of them in terms of where they're at in their career. "From my prospective, Joshua's an active heavyweight. "The likelihood of Anthony Joshua being able to land a heavyweight punch is much higher than what Mike Tyson had. "I want to give Jake as much time as possible to improve on his boxing skillset to be able to effectively neutralise that main attribute of Anthony Joshua. "My ask of him is to wait longer to do it. But when an opportunity is there, sometimes if you don't take it, it never comes back." Hearn also acknowledged the fight would face criticism should it be made. In Japan, there was a timely reminder of the dangers of the sport as super-featherweight Shigetoshi Kotari died from injuries he sustained in a bout earlier this month. Paul has fought many ex-MMA fighters in boxing, has competed at cruiserweight and his single loss was to Tommy Fury. While the American has insisted becoming a world champion is his ultimate goal, there are few in the sport who would say that is possible. "Do I think he'll go and win world titles? Nope, never," Hearn said. Bidarian likened the potential match-up to when ex-UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou crossed into boxing. "Anthony Joshua fought Francis Ngannou. Francis Ngannou first fought Tyson Fury who many says is a better boxer than Anthony Joshua and went all 10 rounds," Bidarian said. "And then had the opportunity to fight Anthony Joshua and got flatlined. Which happens all the time in boxing." How much could Joshua earn from a Paul fight? Hearn and Bidarian both said the fight would probably take place at a stadium in the United States. As many as 72,000 people watched Paul and Tyson at the AT&T Stadium in Texas while Joshua has staged six of his fights at different stadiums in the UK. The main motivation for Joshua is the prospective fight purse, which Hearn said could exceed his previous paydays. Joshua's purses have never been made public or verified but his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk in 2022 earned him reportedly as much as £40m. "Probably right up there [as his biggest fight purse]," Hearn said. "[Usually] the more dangerous the fight, the bigger you expect the purse to be, or to reflect that. "This is actually the opposite. It might be AJ's easiest ever fight and potentially his biggest payday."

Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani joins 40 home run club with center field moonshot
The post Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani joins 40 home run club with center field moonshot appeared first on ClutchPoints. In a game where Blake Snell recorded double-digit strikes in his first game at Dodger Stadium since April, the headlines once again go to Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani, who officially joined the 40 home run club with an absolute no-doubter to center field. Stepping up to the plate in the fifth inning with his team up 2-0 thanks to a home run by Max Muncy, Ohtani squared up, took the count to 3-1, and absolutely punished an 86 mph sinker to the tune of a 417-foot home run to just right of center field. Now, for Ohtani, a 40-home run season is nothing new, as he's accomplished the feat four times in the last five seasons, including last season in LA. But the accomplishment was notable all the same for a number of reasons, including that it marks the first time a Dodgers player has had back-to-back 40 home run seasons since all the way back in 2002, when Shawn Green went on a run for the Blue and White. It also marked the fastest a Dodgers batter has gotten to 40 home runs in franchise history, passing Cody Bellinger in 2019 by six games. When, some may wonder, was the last time a Dodgers pitcher hit 40 home runs in a season once, let alone twice? Well, that would be… never. Joining an unlikely home run competition with Philadelphia Phillies left fielder Kyle Schwarber, who has been on an absolute tear as of late, Ohtani technically trails his East Coast rival by one run at time of publication. What Ohtani doesn't have to worry about is Schwarber suddenly becoming a Gold Glover, let alone a converted pitcher at the tender age of 32, giving him the clear edge. If Ohtani continues to dominate at the plate and on the mound, he very well could find himself with another MVP on his mantle, marking the first time a Dodgers player has accomplished that feat ever, despite the franchise being around since 1883, when the MLB was just seven years old.

Laureano singles in Bogaerts in the 10th as the Padres walk-off the Red Sox, 5-4
SAN DIEGO — Ramón Laureano singled in Xander Bogaerts from second base with no outs in the 10th inning and the San Diego Padres beat the Boston Red Sox 5-4 on Saturday night. With runners on first and second and the infield drawn in, Laureano, obtained from Baltimore at the trade deadeline, hit a chopper off off Garrett Whitlock (5-2) over third baseman Alex Bregman into left field. Bogaerts, who had a big game against his former team, scored.
