Kobe Bryant basketball card sells for record sum
For decades, many fans have been collecting basketball cards, and while it has long been a potentially lucrative hobby, it has become a lot more lucrative in recent years. The value of basketball cards spiked during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and that was especially true of cards featuring late Los Angeles Lakers great Kobe Bryant, who passed away along with eight others in a helicopter crash in January 2020. Any type of memorabilia with Bryant's likeness has been fetching huge amounts of money lately. This week, one individual spent $2.3 million on a basketball card of Bryant, making it the highest amount of money a Bryant card has ever sold for. The previous record was $2 million in 2022. Among the other pieces of Bryant memorabilia that have gone for incredible sums lately are an autographed pair of the sneakers he wore for his first start with the Lakers. They went for $240,000 just a few weeks ago, while a pair he wore during the game in which he tore his Achilles tendon in 2013 sold for $660,000. In April, the jersey the "Black Mamba" wore for his NBA regular season debut fetched $7 million. In fact, his old locker at Arena (formerly known as Staples Center) was purchased for almost $3 million nearly a year ago.

2025 PFL World Tournament 9 results: Alfie Davis upsets Gadzhi Rabadanov in final
Against all odds, Alfie Davis is a PFL tournament champion. The English fighter was crowned champion of the 2025 PFL lightweight tournament after outpointing Gadzhi Rabadanov in the main event of 2025 PFL World Tournament 9, which took place Friday at Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte, N.C. Despite being a sizable underdog, Davis (20-5-1) won with 48-47 scores from all three judges. Davis took home the 2025 PFL lightweight tournament belt and a $500,000 prize on top of his fight purse. This was Davis' first major championship belt of his 10-year MMA career. It was a slow, but hard-fought win for Davis at 2025 PFL World Tournament 9. Although he didn't do a ton of damage on Rabadanov (26-5-2), Davis clearly landed the better shots of the fight and was far more active than Rabadanov on the feet. Rabadanov made the fight close by pressuring Davis and controlling him at times with his wrestling. Unfortunately for Rabadanov, he didn't do enough damage with his control, ultimately losing a close decision. With this result, Davis is now on a three-fight winning streak and 6-1 in his past seven bouts. He entered the tournament as an underdog, but ended up upsetting several notable names in Clay Collard, former Bellator champion Brent Primus, and now Rabadanov, who had won the 2024 PFL lightweight tournament. On the other hand, Rabadanov saw a 12-fight wining streak come to an end. He hadn't tasted defeat since losing his Eagle FC lightweight title in 2020. Rabadanov has stopped former UFC fighters Kevin Lee and Marc Diakiese en route to the 2025 PFL lightweight tournament final.
