Ramirez vs Dorticos
The judges score the bout 115-112 (x2) and 117-110... and STILL the unified WBA and WBO cruiserweight champion... Gliberto Ramirez.

Major update in sexual assault case against BYU quarterback Jake Retzlaff
BYU quarterback Jake Retzlaff is reportedly expected to leave the school after he admitted violating BYU's ban on premarital sex. Retzlaff is currently fighting a sexual assault lawsuit, with the quarterback denying allegations that he 'bit, raped or strangled' a woman in November 2023. The 22-year-old is BYU's first ever Jewish quarterback but, according to the Salt Lake Tribune, he is now likely to leave the program. BYU is operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and both students and employees are expected follow a strict Honor Code. Among the rules is a ban on sex before marriage, with students ordered to 'live a chaste and virtuous life'. Retzlaff has denied the allegations of sexual assault, but he admitted on Friday that he had 'consensual' sex with the woman, who has been identified only as 'Jane Doe A.G.' Jane Doe's lawsuit states she did not immediately disclose Retzlaff's name to Provo police, but later informed them that it was the BYU quarterback, only to be told victims 'never get justice' According to the Salt Lake Tribune, Retzlaff is expecting to be hit with a seven-game suspension for violating the school's Honor Code. That would rule him out of more than half of the 2025 season and so the quarterback is reportledy expected find another school to continue his college career. 'Jane Doe' is seeking $300,000 in damages over the alleged sexual assault. The lawsuit, filed in Utah in late May and obtained by Daily Mail, also claims Provo cops encouraged the woman to remain silent, allegedly telling her: 'Sexual assault victims never get justice.' But representatives for the quarterback hit back earlier this week, branding the allegations 'ridiculous and bizarre' as well as 'false and untrue'. 'Mr. Retzlaff specifically and categorically denies each and every and all allegations that he bit, raped or strangled [the woman], which are ridiculous and bizarre allegations, all of which are false and untrue.'

White Sox take series from Giants in Jonathan Cannon's return
June 29 - Kyle Teel went 3-for-4 with two RBIs and the Chicago White Sox took the three-game series against the visiting San Francisco Giants with a 5-2 win on Sunday. White Sox starter Jonathan Cannon, out since June 3 because of a back strain, gave up one run on three hits, walked three and struck out four in three innings in his return. Justin Verlander was effective through six frames, with one run on five hits and two walks. He fanned three for the Giants, who have dropped five of six. Down by one in the seventh inning, Chicago took advantage of Verlander's exit to take a 5-2 lead. Mike Tauchman and Chase Meidroth each singled off reliever Erik Miller (4-1), with Austin Slater pinch-running for Tauchman. After the pair advanced on a groundout, the Giants swapped Miller for Ryan Walker, who walked Miguel Vargas to load the bases. Teel's double scored Slater and Meidroth to make it 3-2. Then, with Lenyn Sosa at the plate, a balk by Walker allowed Vargas to come in for a 4-2 advantage, and Sosa singled to drive in Teel. San Francisco threatened in the top of the eighth against reliever Tyler Gilbert (2-1) when they had the bases loaded with one out, but Heliot Ramos grounded into a double play to end the inning. The visitors broke a 1-1 tie in the fifth off reliever Jordan Leasure. Rafael Devers and Wilmer Flores each walked, and Mike Yastrzemski singled to load the bases. Leasure gave up another walk to Willy Adames, pushing Devers in to make it 2-1. The White Sox took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Tauchman led off with a double, went to third on a groundout and scored on Andrew Benintendi's sacrifice fly. The Giants tied it in the second when Christian Koss scored on a double by Patrick Bailey. San Francisco right-hander Carson Seymour made his major league debut in the eighth inning, giving up two hits in the frame. --Field Level Media

EXCLUSIVE From homelessness to training Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes... how Quincy Avery became the NFL's quarterback guru
Football jerseys line the walls where Quincy Avery sleeps. Just as they did nearly two decades ago, when he drove his Mustang out west to California. Avery had graduated from Morehouse College in Atlanta when, in 2008, he talked himself into a role as an assistant with the UCLA Bruins. It was a first step. But it was also unpaid. So Avery set up camp in the locker room. 'You got a shower, an air mattress… your whole setup,' the 39-year-old says. He couldn't ask his mom to fund an apartment. He wouldn't have had much time there, anyway.
