Jake Paul vs. Gervonta Davis press conferences set for 6pm ET on Sept. 17 (NYC) & Sept. 18 (Atlanta). Both probably more interesting and illuminating than whatever fight materialises on Nov. 14 #PaulTank.

Ike Ibeabuchi returns to the ring this weekend after 26 years. The 52yo tells me for @uncrownedcombat he has his sights set on Usyk & Itauma at the top of the h/w division. Comebacks like these rarely end well #boxing @arielhelwani 👑

The world is a different place now than in 1999. But try telling that to 52-year-old disgraced heavyweight boxer, who wants to continue his career like nothing happened.

Ain’t reading all of that.
@XanderZayas first off, congratulations on your win and becoming world champ! You were eventually going to do it so I’m not surprised. But let’s keep everything 💯 you got a gift! My last 2 opponents were top 10 in this division. The opponent you just fought was a 33-4 and barely.

22yo @XanderZayas can become boxing's youngest active male world champion this weekend at @TheGarden. He speaks with the maturity of one of the oldest. A genuine pleasure to sit down with him for @uncrownedcombat @YahooSports
