MLS: Lionel Messi's future at Inter Miami in doubt!
Lionel Messi Lionel Messi's future with Inter Miami in MLS is in question. The Argentine World Cup champion could be on his way out. Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba are furious with MLS and a rule they simply can't understand. Their frustration peaked after being suspended for skipping the All-Star Game—a showcase pitting the top players from the North American league against their Mexican league counterparts. They claimed they needed rest to avoid playing another match, a decision fully supported by their club and head coach Javier Mascherano. This decision has gone down terribly with MLS officials, who are both angry and embarrassed. They're frustrated because this marquee event has been planned for a long time, and Lionel Messi is well aware of its significance. MLS commissioner Don Garber weighed in on the situation. "I know Lionel Messi loves this league. I don't think there's a player who has done more for MLS than he has. I fully understand, respect, and admire his commitment to Inter Miami, and I respect his decision." he stated. Meanwhile, Jorge Mas, the majority owner of Inter Miami, also reacted, casting doubt over the Argentine star's future. "Messi is very upset—extremely upset today, as expected. I hope this won't have long-term consequences. Could this affect how players perceive the way the league operates? Absolutely." he said.

Zayas, 22, becomes youngest active world champion
Puerto Rico's Xander Zayas has become boxing's youngest active world champion at the age of 22 by gaining a unanimous points victory over Mexico's Jorge Garcia Perez to win the vacant WBO light-middleweight title. At New York's Madison Square Garden on Saturday, Zayas secured a dominant points victory by margins of 116-112, 118-110 and 119-109. "This is a dream come true," said Zayas, who turned professional at 17. "This is beautiful. To see my Puerto Rican fans here, this is amazing. I could never dream of anything better than this." Unbeaten Zayas, who has won all 22 of his professional fights, took control of the contest with quick jabs to the body and powerful rights. Garcia, suffering only his fifth loss in his 38th bout, managed to go toe-to-toe with Zayas in a thrilling sixth round, but could not maintain that pressure as Zayas was able to show his class and dominate the later rounds. "I had to box my way to victory," added Zayas. "I knew if I stood in front of him I'd be fighting his fight. So, I did everything behind the jab. The jab was the key to victory, and we showed that." US-born Puerto Rican Wilfred Benitez holds the record for being the youngest-ever world champion as he was 17 years and 176 days when he won the WBA light-welterweight belt in March 1976.
