Boxing legend 'The Bodysnatcher' dies at 68 after pulling car off road
Mike McCallum was a Hall of Fame fighter who was the first Jamaican to win a world title, and secured titles at three different weight classes in his career Boxing great Mike 'The Bodysnatcher' McCallum has sadly died at the age of 68. The Jamaican, a Hall of Fame fighter who won three world titles in three different weight classes, passed away after falling ill on the way to the gym in Las Vegas on Saturday. Reports claim McCallum, who was 68, pulled his car off the road. According to The Jamaica Observer he was later found unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene. McCallum earned his fearsome nickname due to his heavy hitting style, and the groundbreaking fighter was the first Jamaican to become a world champion, doing so in 1984 when he beat Irish fighter Sean Mannlon at Madison Square Garden in New York to win the WBA Junior Middleweight title. He would later claim the WBA Middleweight and WBC Light heavyweight titles, and he was inducted into Boxing's Hall of Fame in 2003. In addition he was a welterweight gold medal winner at the 1978 Commonwealth Games and the Central American and Carribbean Games in the same year. Jamaica sports minister Olivia Grange confirmed the sad news in a statement, saying: "It is with utter and complete sadness that I learned of the death of Jamaica's three-time world boxing champion Michael McKenzie McCallum. "I express my personal condolences to his mother, siblings and his children. On behalf of the Ministry of Sports, I take this opportunity to extend our sympathies to the family and friends of this legendary Jamaican." The Ring Magazine said on X: "The Ring is saddened to learn of the passing of boxing legend Mike McCallum. "The 'Body Snatcher' was a three-weight world champion, having won titles at super-welterweight, middleweight, and light-heavyweight. "Our deepest sympathies are with his friends and family at this time."

Celtic striker search has two transfer solutions and Brendan Rodgers knows all about them
It's no secret Celtic are in the market for another striker. Brendan Rodgers admitted as much back in January when the Parkhead side came up short in their bid to land reinforcements. In the end Daizen Maeda solved the problem by shifting over from the wing to blast 34 goals for the term – with Adam Idah and Nicolas Kuhn also weighing in with 20 plus strikes for the campaign. There was also a taste of the big time for Irish youngster Johnny Kenny in the run-in, and the kid was also involved in the Scottish Cup Final defeat to Aberdeen. But it's obviously an area Rodgers will be targeting this summer and Parkhead talent spotters are already down to work scouring players from all over the planet. There might just be a couple of options right under their noses though – and a pair of hitmen that would need no introduction. And both of them were Scottish football scoring sensations – but have become expensive foreign flops. Celts hero Kyogo Furuhashi and ex-Aberdeen ace Bojan Mioviski. The two were top poachers in the Premiership and earned big-money moves. Yet neither one of them has hit the same heights away from Celtic and Aberdeen. The Hoops haven't been shy about bringing back former stars with Jota returning in January and Kieran Tierney back in a few weeks. They were also linked with Miovski when he was banging in the goals for the Dons before he made his record £6.8m move to Girona in Spain. Both could be back on the market in the next few weeks though – and Celtic should be in the hunt. The question is, which one is now the bet bet? Record Sport looks at the pros and cons of both before delivering our verdict. Kyogo Snap Him Up Celtic fans won't need much persuading over this one. Most of them were not too chuffed he was sold in the first place. The Japanese ace won a place in the hearts of the punters with his swashbuckling style and his infectious smile – and his goals. It wasn't just the 85 in three-and-a-half seasons either. It was the magnitude of the goals. Kyogo was a big game player for Celts, blasting crucial efforts in cup finals and in crunch derbies, where he became a Rangers bogey man. There were games where he would be quiet and would then pop up with a winner out of nowhere, the ghost at the near post, haunting defences all over the place. Celtic romped to the league with a lot of the damage already done but there was no doubt he was a big miss in the Cup Final and a lot of punters would have him back in a heart beat. Say No Thanks It was Kyogo who wanted to leave Celtic. Sure, there were times he could frustrate his manager, who wanted him more involved in the play on occasions, but there's no doubt the Hoops would have been happy for him to remain. The £10m fee was good business, especially given he turned 30 in January and then there's the fact there's been long-term injury fears. It's no secret Kyogo has struggled with a shoulder issue and he admitted himself there would be a time when surgery would be the best way to sort it. The clock is ticking on that one and it could be a cause for concern. It's also tough to recapture the old magic one it's gone, plus some of the players who were so pivotal in teeing him up, are no longer around. There could also be competition, with the likes of EPL Bournemouth believed to be interested. Miovski Snap him up? The Macedonian was an inspired signing by Aberdeen in the summer of 2022. Then boss Jim Goodwin picked him up for £500,000 and the hitman provided plenty of bang for his bucks. Miovski notched on his debut against Raith Rovers and never looked back. In his two seasons there were some desperate times for the Dons but he was the one who was doing his best to drag the side along. He bagged 18 in his first campaign as the recovered from Goodwin going to finish third and then he kicked on the next term with 26 – to spark a frantic bidding war. The frontman's movement and finishing made him a perfect fit for the Premiership, with a variety of different kinds of goals on his CV. Celtic were keeping a look but the fee rocketed and Girona stepped in with a bumper bid to break the Dons transfer record. Miovski is stilly 25, an international regular, a proven poacher on these shores and could be picked up for under £5m. Say No Thanks It's been a pretty wretched season for the striker in Spain. He's managed just four goals in 25 appearances for Girona this term – and two of them came against fifth tier part-timers CD Extremadura in the cup. He's struggled to secure a regular role up top and appeared for just 20 minutes in the last 10 games in the battle to avoid the drop. There are question marks over his pace, which is something Rodgers loves to have in his team, especially in Europe. Miovski is on decent dosh and under contract until 2028, which might be an issue, and there is also interest in Italy. Verdict Miovski is the man. It might sound controversial given Kyogo's hero status at Celtic but there is a sense that ship has sailed and perhaps his best years are behind him. Celtic need a fresh approach and Miovski would be a winner. It wouldn't cost a fortune and he'd get plenty of service. He might not be rapid but his quick thinking buys him the space he needs in the penalty area. He's not perfect, but Miovski ticks a lot of the boxes for the Hoops and they should snap him up sharpish.
