UFC 318 'Fight Motion': Max Holloway gives Dustin Poirier one final slugfest
But in putting one final bow on the event, the promotion released Monday the always-popular "Fight Motion" for the event. The video captured the big fights and key moments from the July 19 card at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans – in super slow motion.
Atop the card was a "BMF" title fight between Max Holloway and the swan-songing Dustin Poirier. The two all-time-fan-favorites slugged it out over the course of five rounds.
Additionally, Paulo Costa defeated Roman Kopylov in a three-round middleweight co-main event. Also, a chaotic bout between Daniel Rodriguez and Kevin Holland will be one fight fans remember for a long time.

Bills decline comment, while RB Cook cites 'business' as reason he didn't participate in practice
PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills aren't commenting on the reason behind James Cook not participating in practice on Sunday in what could be viewed as the running back's next step in escalating his bid to extend the final year of his contract. Cook, who watched the two-hour session from the sideline in an all-white track suit, was not included in a lengthy list of injured players coach Sean McDermott provided reporters before practice. While the Bills declined comment on the player's status in a text to The Associated Press, Cook reiterated the word 'business' numerous times following practice in explaining his status to reporters from The Buffalo News and ESPN. 'Business,' was Cook's one-word response when asked if it was his choice to not practice, The Buffalo News reported. As for whether he anticipated practicing on Monday, Cook said: 'Business. That's all I'm going to say. Business.' Messages left with Cook's representatives were not returned. A second-round pick in the 2022 draft, Cook was the NFL's co-leader with 16 touchdowns rushing in his second full season as a starter. The 25-year-old has made no secret this offseason of his desire for a new contract that would pay him in the range of $15 million a year in what would make him among the league's highest-paid players at his position. Though Cook skipped all of the team's voluntary sessions this spring, he had previously taken part in each of the Bills mandatory practices, including their first eight of training camp before Sunday. Cook said 'I like my money, that's why I'm here,' upon reporting for Buffalo's three-day mandatory camp in June. He provided a similar answer to open training camp, while insisting he's confident he'll get his payday whether it's in Buffalo or elsewhere. Cook said he didn't want his contract situation to become a distraction. Bills general manager Brandon Beane opened camp by saying the two sides remained in contact. He reiterated how he wanted nothing more than to reach an agreement while acknowledging the team had limited room under the salary cap. ___ AP NFL:

White Sox place INF Miguel Vargas on IL with oblique strain
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — The Chicago White Sox placed infielder Miguel Vargas on the 10-day injured list on Sunday because of a left oblique strain. Vargas, 25, was scratched from Saturday night's 1-0 victory at the Angels. Vargas, who was acquired from the Dodgers as part of a three-team trade in July 2024, is batting .229 with 13 homers and 44 RBIs in 106 games. The White Sox also recalled infielder Curtis Mead from Triple-A Charlotte before their series finale against the Angels. Left-hander Bryan Hudson and right-hander Elvis Peguero were claimed off waivers from Milwaukee and assigned to Charlotte. Mead, 24, came over when the White Sox traded right-hander Adrian Houser to Tampa Bay on Thursday. He hit .226 with three homers and eight RBIs in 49 games with the Rays this year. ___ AP MLB: and AP auto racing:
