Other than Harry Higgs and Justin Thomas, the golfers that posted higher than 74 were already out of contention. What did take place was a respositioning. The leader almost improved by a shot, until a bogey at 18 brought him back to level on the day. What did happen, was an extension of the lead. What was a four-shot advantage at Saturday’s dawn, grew to a…
Justin Gaethje doesn’t see himself giving Ilia Topuria an immediate rematch after what transpired at UFC Freedom 250. Gaethje and Topuria collided on the White House lawn for the distinction of being called the undisputed UFC Lightweight Champion. Topuria’s face was a mess early on thanks to Gaethje’s striking, and the damage only got worse as the fight progress. “El Matador’s” broken orbital bone was enough that he didn’t get off his stool for the final round, and Gaethje is now the unified UFC Lightweight Champion for the first time in his career. During an appearance on the “JRE MMA…

Ciryl Gane beat Alex Pereira at the UFC White House event to win the interim heavyweight title, but the fight was not without controversy. The French kickboxer threw some pretty questionable strikes to the back of Pereira’s head after a rocked “Poatan” shot for a takedown, leading to the end of the fight (watch the highlights here).“I think every time anybody fights, the referee should be watching everything that happens,” White said. “And I say it all the time, and I’ll say it again: no reffing anywhere is perfect. It could be an NBA game, it could be an NFL…
