The former Cleveland Browns quarterback will join the Fox reality show Special Forces: World's Toughest Test. This season was filmed in Morocco, where famous athletes and stars go through very hard tasks that test both the body and the mind. Manziel, once a first-round NFL pick worth $7.7 million, will now face military-style training on TV. Johnny Manziel joins Randall Cobb Eric Decker and other stars on Special Forces Manziel will be part of a star-filled cast. Former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb, ex-New York Jets wide receiver Eric Decker, Olympic gold medal gymnast Shawn Johnson, former USWNT captain Christie Pearce, and former NBA player Nick Young will also take part. The show, which first started in 2022, is known for pushing people to their limits with challenges like swimming in icy water, climbing from high places, and surviving rough weather. Filming in Morocco means hot days, cold nights, and tough desert conditions. Contestants must work together but also prove their own strength to stay in the game.

Lovlina Borgohain accuses BFI official of mistreatment and making sexist remarks: ‘Told me to shut up and lower my head'
Lovlina Borgohain, the Olympic bronze medallist, accused a senior Boxing Federation of India (BFI) official of mistreating her and making her feel small by passing some sexist remarks. According to the official two-page complaint lodged by Lovlina, the incident happened during a Zoom meeting on July 8 under the Target Olympic Podium Scheme (TOPS). Lovlina Borgohain accuses BFI official of mistreating her. (Getty) The 27-year-old boxer has submitted a written complaint to Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya, SAI Director-General Hari Ranjan Rao, the Indian Olympic Association (IOA), TOPS officials, and BFI. In her communication to the concerned officials, Lovlina alleged that Col (Retd) Arun Malik, executive director of BFI and interim committee member, humiliated her when she made a formal request. She requested the senior official to let Pranamika Boro join her as a personal coach for a training stint in Europe. 'What happened during the official meeting on July 8 left me deeply hurt and disheartened. Mr Arun Malik raised his voice at me, spoke in an aggressively demeaning tone, and blatantly told me to 'shut up, lower your head and do as we say'," she wrote in her letter, as reported by The Times of India. 'In a space where I expected professionalism, support and mutual respect, I was made to feel small, unheard, and powerless. It was not just a personal insult — it was an attack on every woman athlete who dreams of standing tall, both in and outside the ring," she stated further. The official denies allegations However, the BFI official Col Malik has firmly denied all the allegations, saying the meeting was "professional". 'Lovlina is the pride of the nation, and we at BFI take immense pride in her achievements. Matters raised by her were addressed in accordance with BFI's policies, which apply uniformly to all athletes,' the Times of India quoted him as saying. The Indian Olympic Association has now formed a three-member inquiry committee to probe into the matter. The committee comprises TOPS CEO Nachhatar Singh Johal, Olympian Sharath Kamal, and a female legal expert. On the other hand, SAI's TEAMS division, headed by Ritu Pathik, is also conducting an independent investigation into the matter.

I've shown other women that we don't have to limit ourselves: Faith Kipyegon
Faith Kipyegon (AP Photo) They call her the 'Smiling Destroyer'. It's almost an oxymoron of a nickname, but then, when you interact with Faith Kipyegon, you can see she certainly smiles a lot. And if you're someone who has closely followed her track exploits, you'd have to admit she stands guilty of having caused a notable amount of destruction too. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! At 31, Kipyegon has pretty much done it all. Olympic champion? Check. The Kenyan star, in fact, happens to be the first and only woman to win the gold medal in her pet event, the 1500 metres, in three Olympic Games (Rio 2016, Tokyo 2020 and Paris 2024). World Champion? Check. Not only has Kipyegon been crowned world champion three times in the 1500m, at the 2023 edition in Budapest, she completed the double by winning the 5000m gold as well. Poll Do you believe more female athletes can achieve success after becoming mothers? Yes, definitely Maybe, it depends on the individual No, it's too challenging World record holder? Check. As of today, Kipyegon holds the world record in both, the mile (4:07.64) and the 1500m (3:48.68), clocking the latter just last month. As if all this wasn't enough, there she was in June, attempting to become the first woman to run the mile under four minutes in a much hyped event titled Breaking4 hosted by Nike. She may have fallen short, for once, but she conveyed what she wanted to. 'It's a kind of mindset,' Kipyegon told reporters during a virtual interaction on Thursday ahead of next month's World Athletics Championships. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 4BHK + S from ₹7.99 Cr* | Avail 30:40:30 Easy Payment Plan Godrej Properties Get Quote Undo 'If you set your mind that I want to achieve this goal and do this... it's all about the mind and also about the preparation and being patient. 'It's also about what more you still want to achieve for the next generation to look up to you. For me, the goal was to be the first woman to run under four minutes in the mile. I didn't do what I wanted to do. It was a message sent out that it is possible one day, one time, and if it did not come my way, it will be someone one day. One day, there will be a woman running under four minutes in the next generation or in our generation.' It's why, Kipyegon underlined, she keeps going, despite everything she has already achieved. 'I've achieved all the medals. I have achieved in Olympics and the World Championships. But I still have the drive to show the other women that we are capable of doing what we have to do in this world so that they believe they too can do it,' she said. It's crazy in a way, even for Kipyegon, to process what all she has gone on to accomplish after taking a break in 2018 to give birth to her daughter Alyn when she was just 24. Although not uncommon today to see women across sports making an attempt to return to elite competition after giving birth, Kipyegon's case stands out, with two Olympic titles and three World Championship golds coming after she became a mom. 'It's not easy as an elite athlete and also as a mom, but if you have people around you who believe in you and support you, that is the easiest thing,' she said. 'Having Alyn has been my strongest point, as I came back strong and I'm still running very fast. I'm still breaking the world records, which is unbelievable even for me as an athlete. 'Sometimes, it's not easy to come back and break records after maternal leave, but I believe that I've shown other women that we don't have to limit ourselves. 'Sometimes one can be afraid of wanting to start a family because (you think) 'I don't know if I will come back as strong as I was before'. But I think I'm a good example to them that, you can be even stronger when you go to maternal leave and come back to sport.' Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4. Watch Here!
