The U.S. Air Force Special Warfare Partnered with OTX for 2025 Season Opener in San Diego
United States Air Force Special Warfare Operator Leo Zapata Met with Fighters for an Exclusive Behind-the-Scenes Experience BROOKLYN, N.Y., June 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The United States. Air Force recently teamed up with Overtime Boxing (OTX) as the official sponsor of their first fight of 2025 at Sycuan Casino Resort in San Diego. Among those in attendance was United States Air Force Special Warfare Operator Staff Sgt. Leo Zapata who received an exclusive look at the preparation for OTX alongside the fighters in recognition and honor of his service. On Friday, March 21, Staff Sgt. t Zapata joined a mitt work session and received pointers from OTX fighters Jonny Mansour, Maliek Montgomery and Kurt Scoby. Staff Sgt. Zapata then attended a press conference with the fighters and had the opportunity to ask about insights into their training and routines. Staff Sgt. Zapata also met with OTX broadcast talent Akin "Ak" Reyes, Barak Bess, and Corey Erdman for a behind-the-scenes look at the sport. On Saturday, March 22, before the night's action began, fans had the chance to meet Staff Sgt. Zapata and take on U.S. Air Force special warfare drills to test their own grit and strength. Later that evening, Staff Sgt. Zapata and members of the recruitment team watched as Mansour stole the show in a featured bout and electrified his hometown crowd by knocking out his opponent in under two minutes. Following the fight, Staff Sgt. Zapata and Mansour planned to keep in touch and train together at Mansour's local gym. A California native, Staff Sgt. Zapata enlisted in the U.S. Air Force in 2014 after a year-long wait to ship out for basic training. He signed up as a Tactical Air Control Party Specialists (TACP) from the start and successfully completed the rigorous pipeline on his first attempt, graduating in December 2014 with Eagle 97 flight. Over his 11-year United States Air Force career, he served at Fort Bliss, TX, completing two combat deployments to Afghanistan and Operation Inherent Resolve. Zapata later moved to Joint Base Lewis-McChord, WA and deployed to South Korea. Throughout his service, he completed both Airborne and Air Assault training. Off duty, Staff Sgt. Zapata is a proud husband and father to a 3-year-old daughter, balancing family life with his passions for soccer, shooting, travel, and hopefully returning to skydiving.

Connor McDavid's Blunt Take on Sam Bennett's Aggressive Play
Connor McDavid's Blunt Take on Sam Bennett's Aggressive Play originally appeared on Athlon Sports. As the Stanley Cup Final shifts to Florida for Games 3 and 4 with the series tied, Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid is preparing for another meeting with a player he's known since childhood. Advertisement Florida Panthers forward Sam Bennett has emerged as one of the most impactful players in the finals through the first two games, both physically and on the scoresheet. McDavid and Bennett grew up together and ended up representing Canada on the international stage, most recently during the 4 Nations Face-Off last February. Their friendship remains strong off the ice, but McDavid made clear that it won't impact his focus this week while facing Bennett as a legitimate rival. 'Yeah, he's always played with an edge ever since he was a little guy,' McDavid said on Sunday when asked if Bennett has always been a "pest" in terms of his playing style. 'So you know, nothing that we haven't seen before. Advertisement "He's playing really well, you know, scoring goals. He's a good player, and we've got to figure him out. So he's not going anywhere. We're not going anywhere.' Bennett scored a power-play goal early in Game 2 but grabbed most headlines because of a goalie interference penalty following a collision with Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner. Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid (97) celebrates after a goal during a 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs game. Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Bennett said postgame that he was pushed by Oilers defenseman Mattias Ekholm and didn't agree with the penalty call. 'I was pushed,' Bennett said. 'I think the goalie kicked out my heel that made me fall. I didn't agree with that.' Bennett has 13 goals and 6 assists through 19 playoff games, including a league-leading 12 goals on the road. Advertisement Game 3 will take place in Sunrise, FL, on Monday, with puck drop set at 8 p.m. ET and the series tied at 1-1.

Oilers vs. Panthers: Stanley Cup Final Game 3 odds, picks, prediction
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. The Stanley Cup Final rematch between the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers may be just two games old, but it has already delivered on the hype. Game 1 was extraordinary, with the teams exchanging early leads before the Oilers stormed back from 3-1 down to win, 4-3, thanks to a Leon Draisaitl game-winning goal in overtime. Not to be outdone, Game 2 featured five goals in the first period and a last-gasp game-tying goal from 40-year-old Corey Perry, but it was for naught as hockey's best heel, Brad Marchand, scored on a breakaway in double-overtime to send the series to Florida tied, 1-1. Oilers vs. Panthers Game 3 betting preview After earning the split in Edmonton, the Panthers are now priced as the favorites to win the Stanley Cup, though the odds are extremely tight. Florida is -118 at FanDuel Sportsbook, which is essentially where the Oilers were ahead of Game 1. In other words, the series started as a coin flip, and it remains one after two games. And it's not just the odds that are tight; the tale of the tape through nearly nine periods shows us that there's really nothing that separates these two heavyweights. The Oilers and Panthers have split 16 goals evenly through two games, though the Cats have outscored the Oil, 5-4, at 5-on-5. Both teams have a pair of power-play goals, but Florida also added a short-handed goal in Game 2. Things only get tighter from there, as the two teams are separated by 0.01 expected goals (xG) at 5-on-5, per Natural Stat Trick. Florida has created 7.03 xG at full strength, while Edmonton has generated 7.02. Getting any separation in this series will be tough, as both teams have proven to be unflappable in big moments. Nate Schmidt gloves a puck in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final. AP Betting on the NHL? Considering how tight things have been through the first two contests, it is a bit surprising to see Florida getting some love from the bookies for Game 3. Edmonton closed as a -125 favorite in Game 1, and Game 2 was a pick'em, but the Panthers are sitting at -140 for Game 3. Ignoring Game 2 because the series scoreline impacted the market for that game (bettors tend to back the team down 1-0 in a best-of-7 when it's supposed to be close), we're seeing a 65-cent shift from Game 1 to Game 3. Oilers vs. Panthers Game 3 pick That seems like a bit much, and puts value on the Oilers on the moneyline on Monday night. And while I will be backing Edmonton, that isn't my favorite bet on the board. Jake Walman has one goal so far in the 2024-25 Stanley Cup Playoffs. NHLI via Getty Images Jake Walman has been superb for the Oilers for the entire playoffs, but he's got more to give offensively. The smooth-skating defenseman doesn't log a ton of minutes, but he's making the most of his ice-time with 31 shots this postseason, including seven through the first two games of this series. It was Walman's shot that rebounded to Perry for his tying goal with less than 20 seconds left in the game. Kris Knoblauch is not afraid to send Walman over the boards in big moments, when the Oilers need a goal, and I think he's great value to find the back of the net in Game 3. Walman is 15/1 to score a goal on Monday night, and he's a whopping 85/1 to be the first goalscorer.
