Conor McGregor Hits Back At Floyd Mayweather Jr. With Hilarious Tweet
Share this: Another day, another ridiculous amount of rumors surrounding that potential Floyd Mayweather Jr./Conor McGregor superfight. Tuesday started with the bombshell report that the two fighters finally had agreed to a deal, but Mayweather put cold water on the rumor with a tweet, in which he called himself “happily retired.” You knew somehow, someway McGregor would respond, and he also chose Twitter for his latest jab in the ongoing war of words between the two fighters. So maybe we aren’t closer to that dream superfight after all? But if it ever does happen, Nevada State Athletic Commission executive director Bob Bennett told Mike Coppinger of USA TODAY Sports “that’s certainly a fight that we would approve and have in Vegas.” Thumbnail photo Per Haljestam/USA TODAY Sports Images More Stories Source link

Zarco: “We all knew that this race was for Luis”
From Saturday onwards it was clear that Johann Zarco (Ajo Motorsport) and Alex Rins (Paginas Amarillas HP 40) were the riders to beat, the pair duelling it out on Sunday. Both got shuffled back in the run down to Turn 1 but quickly recovered to lead the field. The pair escaped and Zarco watched Rins for most of the race, learning his lines, where Rins was weak and most importantly where Zarco was stronger. Seven laps from the end Zarco saw his chance and took it without a second thought, slipping past Rins and never looking back. Zarco’s pace was untouchable and he would eventually cross the line 4.180s ahead of Rins....
