In case you missed it, Manny Pacquiao absolutely obliterated Miguel Cotto this Saturday. It really wasn’t much of a contest, even as it went 12 rounds before the referee put an end to the senseless beating Pacquiao was putting on Cotto. So until Pacqiuao and Floyd Mayweather fight (seriously, guys, just do it already), Pac-Man’s […]

Lance Pugmire of the L.A. TIMES reports this afternoon that representatives for Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao will talk today to begin negotiating the terms of a future fight.

Nice to see Mike Tyson back to his ol’ brawlin’ self. Not so nice to see him do it at LAX. Even less nice to see him do it not at the trendy nightclub known as LAX, but at the LAX as in Los Angeles International Airport.

Both TMZ and the LA Times report that Iron […]

I hesitate to brag about how far we’ve come as a society when there’s still things like this going on, but the racial forces that allied against former heavyweight boxing champion Jack Johnson in the early portion of the 20th century really are a collection of rickety, antique notions. Isn’t it high time that Johnson […]

Frankly speaking, George Foreman’s sons have not been pulling their weight. There’s what, five of them? And as far as I know they haven’t been in the news at all — not so much as a DUI. Feh. But wait, what’s this?

George Foreman III, 27, is possibly dating Amy Winehouse? Now we’re talkin’. Actually they’re […]

Raul Hernandez of the VENTURA COUNTY STAR has a sad, ugly story today involving boxer Fernando Vargas and his mother, Alicia Romo.

(Vargas’ Mom: Gets Hit With Eviction Notice From Boxer. Vargas: Gets Hit.)

Only notables from the Vladimir Klitschko-Chris Arreola fight here in L.A. last night:

A (very) sad sack Arreola cried in the ring after a bloody beatdown from Klitschko.

(Pondering if she double-swiped his card on purpose)
While a ringside Pete Rose was to be commended for his decision to double-bag, which brought out the best of the […]

Remember a few days when we brought you the guide on how to keep from going broke after gaining millions as an athlete? We meant it all, athletes; have you hired your accountant yet? But as for what pushes these men into bankruptcy in the first place, it’s usually at least one of two things: […]
