Toluca beat América to claim the Campeón de Campeones trophy
After 90 minutes, the Devils won once again against América and took the Champion of Champions title.
The match began with a dressing room goal from the Eagles that seemed to make the blue and cream team the favorite.
However, those led by Antonio Mohamed reacted immediately and recovered the advantage in the first half alone.
For the second half, América wanted to react and look for a tie, but Toluca was better and sentenced the match with a goal from Paulinho.
The Red Devils confirm their great moment and position themselves as wide favorites to seek the bi-championship.
On the other hand, those from Coapa will have to adjust to become that competitive team again that achieved the tri-championship.

Claressa Shields defends $15 million offer to fight Laila Ali: 'Everybody is making all these excuses for her'
Fresh off a successful defense of her undisputed heavyweight championship, Claressa Shields claims to have an eight-figure offer on the table for her preferred next opponent. "I know that Wynn Records has the $15 million and it's in escrow," Shields told Uncrowned and DAZN's "Ariel x Ade Show" on Wednesday. "If Laila [Ali] wants to fight for that [offer], it's there. That's what her price was and [what] she feels like she deserves, and we can make the fight happen." Ali, the daughter of the legendary Muhammad Ali, retired as WBC super middleweight world champion in 2007 with a 24-0 professional boxing record. The 47-year-old hasn't fought in 18 years and is 17 years older than Uncrowned's No. 2 pound-for-pound boxer, the 30-year-old Shields. With Ali's inactivity and age, the point could be made that Shields has nothing to gain from fighting her. But Shields, the self-proclaimed "Greatest Woman Of All Time" (GWOAT), wants to prove that she deserves the title she has given herself — and believes that a win over Ali could do just that. "My only motivation is to show her that you can't beat me, and you damn sure can't knock me out," Shields said. "If we were to fight each other in our primes, I would've still won. I would've knocked her out. It's more [so I can shut] her up. It's a passing of the torch. I think that in every sport, especially in women's boxing, the torch has to get passed. Either you want to pass it verbally, or the up-and-coming will take it. That's just how it is." "She said she [doesn't] need long to [prepare to] get in the ring and come back and beat me. I ain't got enough power. I'm not big enough. I'm not skilled enough. Those are the words out of her mouth, so therefore I just ain't s***, so she shouldn't need all that [much] time." "Everybody is making all these excuses for her, but she's sitting there and telling you that she's in the gym, she's training, [and] she [doesn't have] all the wear and tear that I got on my body. She doesn't have that because she hasn't been inside the ring. But she said that she's been training, and if you give her enough time and enough money, she would come back and she could beat me, she would knock me out." Ali's extended period outside of the ring, coupled with her aging body, is not a great combination. Fight fans have seen plenty of ex-boxers in their late 40s and even late 50s, in the case of Mike Tyson, come out of retirement to attempt to show that they still have something to offer. But Father Time waits for no man — or woman — and the performances more often than not make for difficult viewing. Shields' unanimous decision win over Lani Daniels this past weekend was the final fight in her promotional contract with Dmitry Salita's Salita Promotions. The attendance for the bout was an impressive 15,366 spectators in Detroit's Little Caesars Arena. At a time when U.S. boxing appears to be running out of fighters that can sell out major arenas, Shields' growing fan base makes her one of the top stars in all of American boxing. "I just want to hear what everybody's got to say. I know that it's always been a myth that I can't sell, that I don't have fans," Shields said. "Now [we know] that's absolutely a lie. I can fight not only in Detroit, but fight anywhere in the world, and all my fans are going to come out and watch me fight, and I'm willing to fight against the best. "Now that that's understood, I think now that the price and my value have [gone] up. [There are] a lot of promotions that have shown me nothing but disrespect. Now that I'm a free agent, of course, I want to hear what are the deals and what's the money [on offer] looking like from all these different people. I just need to weigh my options and talk with my team, and make the best decisions moving forward." Shields told Uncrowned that Salita Promotions had a 30-day Right of First Negotiation following the expiration of their promotional deal, but Salita chose to waive that right, allowing Shields to speak to other promoters immediately. "In my contract, it says [I can start speaking to promoters other than Salita] 30 days after the fight. It's been three days, I've got 27 left," she said. "But I've spoken with Salita, and he let me know that I can speak to other people and see what they're offering and what they're bringing to the table. Just not to lock in anything yet until after [the 30 days are over]." Shields' relationship with Salita spans nine years. The two-time Olympic gold medalist entered the pro ranks with the ex-fighter turned promoter in 2016 — although she did not formally sign with the company until the following year. Shields is open to working with Salita in the future, but first wants to explore the market to find where the best opportunities may lie for her. The three-division undisputed champion believes that she still has yet to be paid her true value. "I believe that I should be getting paid five, 10, 15 million a fight," Shields affirmed. "The past couple of years, I've been able to get paid a million, [1.5 million], [1.8 million]. Now it's like, how do I get that to three, five, 10 million?" One option for Shields' next move could be Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions. MVP has quickly become the home of women's boxing, and earlier this month staged the mega Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano trilogy bout that was watched by more than six million people on Netflix. MVP also represents the unified super middleweight champion Shadasia Green, who defeated Savannah Marshall on the Taylor vs. Serrano 3 undercard. Shields' best win is widely considered to be Marshall, and so Green could prove to be a worthy opponent for Shields, who has often struggled to find notable opposition. "I call bulls***. I've been wanting to fight Shadasia. She lost to Franchon [Crews-Dezurn]. Nobody wants to mention that, but that's exactly what happened," Shields said of Green. "The slight [against me was] this: She got over there with MVP and decided that I wasn't the 'Greatest Woman of All Time,' when I've been in conversation with Shadasia since we were in the amateurs and she knows I'm the best boxer she's ever been inside the ring with. ... She gets with MVP and now everything changes — I've got pillow fists and I don't knock [anyone] out. Therefore, when you're disrespecting me, I'm going to disrespect you." "Shadasia knows — and I know — that I will whoop her ass. It's not [disrespectful for] her to call me out. Thank you for calling me back out because I've been [calling] you out and I've been wanted to fight you. It's more of a thing of, 'Keep building your brand and get to where I am now,' because when I was trying to give you the opportunity, you didn't want it."

Sunderland Is Shopping To Survive In Premier League
SUNDERLAND, ENGLAND - MAY 13: Black cat tifo is displayed prior to the Sky Bet Championship Play-Off ... More Semi Final Second Leg match between AFC Sunderland and Coventry City at Stadium of Light on May 13, 2025 in Sunderland, England. (Photo by) Sunderland is back in the Premier League for the first time since 2017. It feels longer. The club fell as low as the third tier of English soccer and had all its dirty laundry aired in public to millions around the world in Netflix documentary 'Sunderland Til' I Die.' Now back in the big time, The Black Cats are breaking the bank to stay there. The top of the list of Premier League spenders is full of familiar names. Champions Liverpool has spent in excess of $350 million and looks like spending more. Chelsea doesn't seem to take a summer (or winter) off from giant signings, Arsenal and Manchester City have opened their wallets for a title push, and Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are spending big in the hope of consigning last seasons' misery to the history books. But below that, Sunderland is the Premier League club that at the time of writing has spent the most. Once Granit Xhaka's transfer from Bayer Leverkusen goes through, the Mackems' total outlay so far this summer will be around $150 million. Is Sunderland 'Doing A Fulham'? That spending should be put in context though as the club needed to replace midfield star Jobe Bellingham who was signed for big money by Borussia Dortmund, and it also had to drop $26 million to make Enzo Le Fee's loan from AS Roma permanent, so that's around $60 million spent just to stand still. Sunderland's signings on the whole are relatively young and the club will likely recoup their fees when it eventually sells those players on, even if relegated. Granit Xhaka is the outlier, but the Switzerland captain who was on the 2024 Ballon d'Or list adds vital Premier League experience. In past seasons, Sunderland would've been mocked for spending beyond its means. It would've been accused of 'doing a Fulham' referring to the London club's failed 2018/19 spending spree. But now, fans and pundits are starting to realize that this is the level of spending needed to have a chance at Premier League survival. Nottingham Forest showed how this can be done in 2022/23, spending $190 million, pushing profitability and sustainability rules beyond the limit to create a squad capable of competing. Last season, Ipswich and Southampton both spent somewhere in the region of $140 million but even this wasn't enough to survive. Sunderland Packing The Midfield Sunderland's spending has been concentrated in its midfield, with Le Fee, Habib Diarra, Noah Sadiki and Xhaka all joining the club to add competition in the middle of the park, which already was one of Sunderland's stronger areas containing captain Dan Neil and the impressive 18-year-old Chris Rigg. This focus on midfield could be Sunderland's undoing. Its top scorer last season, Wilson Isidor, only managed 13 goals in the Championship and none of the summer signings have been prolific at anything close to Premier League level. Unless Isidor or the 20-year-old Eliezer Mayenda has a breakout season, the Mackems could end up with much of the ball but little end product. Sunderland Defense Needs Strengthening Meanwhile, Sunderland's defense was relatively average for a promoted side, behind Leeds United, Burnley and Sheffield United when it comes to goals conceded, shots conceded and expected goals conceded last season. Keeping a tight defense and winning games one-nil through set pieces might be unfashionable, but it is more likely to keep a team in the Premier League than trying to match Manchester City at its own passing game. No team in the past six seasons has been relegated with fewer than 53 goals conceded whereas in three of those seasons, at least one team has stayed up despite scoring fewer than 34 goals. In the 2022/23 season, Leeds United and Leicester City outscored half the league, including Chelsea, and still got relegated. Sunderland last season didn't really look to dominate possession in the way the likes of Southampton did when it won promotion the previous season, and the eight counter-attacking goals Sunderland scored last season is a good omen. But Burnley's defense last season broke records in the Championship and that hasn't stopped Scott Parker from strengthening his full-back options this summer. Sunderland has brought in Reinildo Mandava, previously a benchwarmer at Atletico Madrid, but should also consider other defensive reinforcements. If Sunderland wants to have a realistic shot of Premier League survival, even more incomings are probably needed. By the end of the transfer window, don't be surprised if the Mackems' spending spree goes north of $200 million.
