Floyd Mayweather Sues Showtime … “I’m Missing Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars!”

Much to the relief of the PGA Tour and its broadcast partners, Brooks Koepka made the cut at the Farmers Insurance Open.

Brooks Koepka did it by the skin of his teeth. He was three shots back of the cut line with two holes to go, but he eagled the 17th and birdied the last to just sneak through to the weekend’s play.

It’s big news for Koepka, who can spend the weekend at the exceptionally difficult Torrey Pines finding his game and testing himself following his return to the PGA Tour and LIV Golf. It’s also big news for the event.

This year’s Farmers Insurance Open has a fair few more eyes on it this year than in seasons past, as it’s the site of Koepka’s comeback. If Koepka missed the cut, then interest in the event could have plummeted.

It’s reminiscent of a time when Tiger Woods was at the top of his game, and his involvement in an event could make or break it.

‘Crazy’ Tiger Woods story shows the importance of Brooks Koepka making the cut

Woods, as the greatest of all time, carried the weight of the PGA Tour on his back for years, especially upon his return from injury in 2018.

His first event of the year was at Torrey Pines, and Michael Kim recounted how the tournament director reacted when Woods nearly missed the cut.

Kim posted to X, “Back in 2018 (I think), Tiger had made his anticipated comeback at Farmers. So much energy at the tournament. I had finished a little earlier than Tiger on Friday. He was on the North course, needing one birdie to make the cut.

“I and many others sat in dining watching the TV. In there with us was the tournament director and I’ll never forget how pale his face was. He was so nervous, I told him, don’t worry Tiger is going to birdie the last hole, it’s a par 5.

“He did indeed birdie the last to make the cut and the tournament director breathed a massive sigh of relief haha.”

The tour needed Woods to keep the people watching, and the tournament knew it. And Kim knows it first hand. He went on to explain what it was like when Woods didn’t make it to the weekend.

He continued, “I also remember when one yr Tiger played and missed the cut. It was crazy. That same energy he injected to the tournament Thursday Friday was gone and then some. It was a freaking ghost town on the weekend. The contrast made it feel that much worse.”

Koepka obviously doesn’t have the same draw as Woods, so there wasn’t as much risk to the tournament as when Woods missed the cut, but with so many big names not qualifying for the weekend’s action, this was important.

Xander Schauffele missed the cut, as did Ludvig Aberg and Max Homa, so Koepka’s making it through means that little bit more.

Brooks Koepka reveals what was special about making the cut

For Koepka, making the cut at Torrey Pines was particularly special. He got to celebrate with his son, Crew, who hasn’t seen his dad make the weekend too often when at the course.

He explained after the round, “Yeah, it was great, it was great. I don’t know the last time I’ve actually made a cut and [my family] still been there. Since, as Doug pointed out earlier in the week, I wasn’t making the cuts on the weekends at the majors when they were there.

“But yeah, so it was nice to have them out there. And it felt good. I don’t know, my son doesn’t really know what’s going on, but it’s cool for me to have them here.”

When Koepka left LIV Golf for the PGA Tour, he said spending time with his family was one of the biggest reasons. He’s already had that wish granted in his first event of the season, and for the first time in a long time, Koepka looks happy to be out there playing golf.

‘I got proof, artifacts’ – Deontay Wilder makes wild claim Tyson Fury

Deontay Wilder makes wild claim Tyson Fury cheated in two of their fights

Former WBC Heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder is officially set to return to the boxing ring on April 4, 2026, when he faces two-time title challenger Derek Chisora at The O2 Arena in London on DAZN pay-per-view (PPV).

While promoting the fight, Wilder recently sat down for an interview with The Ring, where the conversation inevitably turned to Tyson Fury — a shared rival for both Wilder and Chisora. Fury defeated Chisora three times and also fought Wilder in one of boxing’s most memorable trilogies.

Chisora brushed off the topic with a laugh, joking, “He beat my ass three times.” Wilder, however, took a far more aggressive approach, accusing “The Gypsy King” of cheating in two of their three bouts.

“He didn’t whoop me twice at all,” Wilder said. “I’m telling you what I know. You’re only seeing what you saw — he didn’t win nothing, they gave it to him. I can’t think of our third fight, but in two of them, he definitely cheated. I’ve got proof and evidence of that. When I do my documentary and movie about it, it’s going to be presented. I’m going to bring the people, and the artifacts, I know.”

Wilder doubled down on his accusations, challenging Fury to respond legally if the claims are false.

“Why do you think he can’t come back to America?” Wilder continued. “The man cheated. He’s the biggest cheater in boxing history. If I’m lying, then please tell him to sue me for defamation of character so that I have the proof. I can’t wait. Being a black man with dark skin is harder to believe than being a white man. And in that first fight with the referee — that’s white supremacy. You know what he did? He said, ‘what’s best for boxing.’ No, your job is to count his ass out. He gave him an extra 15 count. It is what it is. I speak with truth, heart, and passion.”

Fury and Wilder’s rivalry remains one of the most iconic trilogies in boxing history. Their first meeting ended in a controversial split draw, with many fans believing Wilder deserved the win after scoring two knockdowns. Fury dominated the second fight via TKO, after which Wilder introduced a series of infamous excuses — including claims his water was spiked and his ring-walk outfit was too heavy. The third fight ended similarly, with Fury stopping Wilder again in an instant classic.

Fury has yet to respond publicly to Wilder’s latest cheating allegations — but if history is any indication, a response will come, and it likely won’t be subtle.

“I’m Missing Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars!”: Floyd Mayweather S

Floyd Mayweather Sues Showtime … “I’m Missing Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars!”

Floyd Mayweather says he made over a billion bucks in earnings over his legendary career, but the 50-0 fighter claims all the money didn’t make it to his bank account … and now he’s suing Showtime, claiming they played a big role in his ex-manager screwing him out of hundreds of millions of dollars!

In the lawsuit, filed by Floyd in California, and obtained by TMZ Sports … Mayweather says he’s gunning to “recover hundreds of millions of dollars in the misappropriated funds and damages resulting from a long-running and elaborate scheme of financial fraud,” allegedly perpetrated by his longtime advisor Al Haymon … and now he’s claiming Haymon got “substantial participation and aid” from Showtime and former Showtime Sports president, Stephen Espinoza.

JUST IN: Terence Crawford Reveals Key Reason for His Sudden Retirement

Showtime and Espinoza are listed as defendants … while Haymon is NOT being sued.

Floyd claims Haymon, with whom he worked for over a decade, misappropriated a “significant portion of his career earnings” to the tune of a whopping $340 million … and he says he did so with the help of Showtime and SE.

Mayweather says the money is still “‘missing’ and unaccounted for.”

In the suit, Mayweather references several of his biggest fights, including against Manny Pacquiao and Conor McGregor, alleging Showtime and Espinoza effectively delivered money owed to Floyd directly into Haymon’s hands by sending accounts essentially controlled by Haymon.

Years later, after the undefeated boxer switched managers and his new team asked to see Showtime’s books, which Floyd claims the network told him were “lost in a flood,” or weren’t accessible.

Mayweather is suing Showtime and Espinoza for aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, civil conspiracy to commit fraud, conversion, and unjust enrichment.

In addition to the $340 million, Mayweather is also seeking punitive damages.

Reached for comment, Mayweather’s attorney, Bobby Samini, predicted victory, saying … “Floyd is one of boxing’s biggest pay-per-view draws. He generated hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue for Showtime. Mr. Mayweather now takes this fight to the courtroom to recover what he rightfully earned. Retiring undefeated at 50-0, Mr. Mayweather will go the distance in the courtroom just as he has in the ring.”

Terence Crawford Reveals Key Reason for His Sudden Retirement

Terence Crawford’s sudden retirement in December is still reverberating throughout the sport of boxing.

Retiring with a perfect 42-0 (31 KOs), and soundly defeating Canelo Alvarez in his last bout, “Bud” accomplished what most athletes only dream about: leaving the sport while they’re still at the top of their game.

During the Ring Magazine ceremony, where he was named Fighter of the Year, Crawford finally received his long-overdue flowers in history. With James Brown’s classic song “Boss” playing in the background, Crawford reflected on his remarkable journey that made him one of boxing’s greatest fighters.

“I guess I did pay the cost to be the boss,” Crawford told Manouk Akopyan of Ring Magazine. “What a way to end your career. Anything is possible if you believe in yourself.”

Crawford’s retirement left the boxing world in shock

To say that Crawford’s retirement stunned the boxing world would be an understatement. Many boxing pundits and fans alike were anticipating a possible rematch between Crawford and Alvarez. Instead of a rematch, the six-division champion decided to hang up his gloves in December 2025.

As questions persist around his decision, Crawford explained the rationale behind his move to retire.

“A lot of people keep asking me why I retired,” said Crawford. “I’ve been doing this sport since I was seven years old. I retired at 38. Ask yourself: if you’ve been taking your body through hell for 30 years, would you retire? That’s why I retired,”

Crawford also wanted to leave the sport not only as an all-time great fighter, but with his health intact.

“There is nothing else left for me to accomplish in the sport of boxing,” he said. “I gave my all to boxing, but I’m not going to give my health to boxing.”

Crawford went on to say that there’s no one on the current boxing landscape for him to fight. While he will miss some large paydays and the competition in the ring, he’s content with his place among the pantheon of boxing greats.

“If I were to come back, who would I fight? I have nobody to fight and nothing to accomplish,” said Crawford. “That would mean that I am just coming back for the sport and money. I never fought for money. I fought for legacy.”

Now that his retirement is official, Crawford has much to do outside of the ring. He’s looking forward to spending time with his family, traveling the world, and enjoying his downtime.

“I’m taking the time to travel the world and spend time with my family,” said Crawford. “I’m not worried about anything right now. I said I was going to take a year off, just to do that, and then think about what to do next. But for now, I’m just relaxing.”

Undoubtedly, Crawford’s legacy is etched in stone. If he never makes a comeback in the ring, his contributions to the “sweet science” will never be forgotten.

Gervonta Davis: Another Arrest Warrant Issued One Week After Mia

Warrant Issued For Gervonta Davis In Maryland, One Week After Miami Arrest

Legal issues continue to mount for Gervonta “Tank” Davis … ’cause nearly a week after he was arrested in Miami over domestic violence allegations — TMZ Sports has confirmed an arrest warrant was issued out of Maryland for the troubled boxer.

Court records show Judge Althea Handy issued the warrant Monday on the grounds Davis violated his probation relating to his 2020 hit-and-run that injured four people, including a pregnant woman.

READ: Anthony Joshua finally smiling after fatal Nigeria car crash in a rare

The 31-year-old received 90 days of house arrest, three years of probation, and 200 hours of community service. He was later sent to jail after violating the terms of his home confinement.

Davis’ attorney in the case, Hunter Pruette, has asked the judge to recall the arrest warrant and instead have a summons issued.

“Mr. Davis has appeared as directed, posted bond, complied with all conditions, remained within Florida, and promptly notified supervision of his arrest,” Pruette wrote in court documents obtained by the Baltimore Banner.

“Detaining him in Maryland would frustrate, not facilitate, compliance by impairing his ability to defend the Florida case and creating substantial logistical barriers to court appearances.”

It all came after a weeks-long search for the undefeated boxer ended when U.S. Marshals scooped him up on Wednesday.

Davis was ordered to stay away from the victim and the club where the alleged incident took place, as well as have zero contact with the alleged victim, directly or indirectly.

Tiger Woods Breaks Silence on Brooks Koepka’s First Call After PG

Tiger Woods Breaks Silence on Brooks Koepka’s First Call After PGA Tour Reinstatement

Brooks Koepka’s return to the PGA Tour has been making headlines for weeks, and behind his comeback stood one man: Tiger Woods. The 35-year-old revealed he was the first person on his call list before officially making the return. Now, days after Koepka’s debut at Torrey Pines, the 15x major champion has finally broken his silence at the SoFi Center, where he was supporting his team in TGL S2.

At Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, a reporter asked: “Tiger, I want to know if you would touch on it real quick. Brooks mentioned you were the first call that he made when trying to reinstate on the PGA TOUR. Any talks of him as a Jupiter native potentially becoming a part of this team down the road?”

READ: Tiger Woods’ Record in Danger as Justin Rose Delivers Stunning

Woods kept the response simple: “I don’t know that part yet. Brooks just got his feet wet being back on our Tour again at Torrey, and he’s playing Waste Management this week. If Brooks is going to be on a team or not on a team, we have a great team here. My boys here, we’ve had so much fun going back and forth, and these group texts are just awesome.”

For Koepka, the comeback had everything on the line. He faced a hefty penalty under the Returning Member Program: a $5 million charitable donation, forfeited Tour equity bonuses until 2030, and no FedEx Cup bonus payout this season. The PGA Tour estimates these penalties total between $50–85 million in missed earnings.

However, not everyone welcomed his return.

Tiger Woods made the deal happen, but plenty of pros voiced frustration. Michael Kim wrote on X that players were angry. During Koepka’s LIV stint, loyal PGA Tour pros watched him chase guaranteed millions. Now he’s back without grinding through Korn Ferry qualifiers.

Analyst Brandel Chamblee had pushed for harsh punishment, even suggesting a return via Q-School. He argued Koepka was a “marquee legitimizer” whose credibility kept LIV afloat while loyal players paid the price. Tiger Woods and the player-directors carved out a path, but some pros see it as favoritism dressed up as meritocracy.

Through it all, Tiger Woods remained deeply involved. As chairman of the Future Competition Committee and a member of the PGA Tour policy board, the 50-year-old worked tirelessly.

“We worked through Christmas with both boards to make sure this is right,” he explained. There were no days off.

“He’s not taking a spot away from any player,” Woods emphasized. “That was one of the main concerns.”

Woods called Koepka’s return “a win for everyone,” noting it brings back a top-tier player fans demanded.

At the Farmers Insurance Open, Koepka made his return official. He finished tied for 56th at 4-under par. Even the Torrey Pines crowd welcomed him with standing ovations.

“The fans were awesome today,” Koepka said after his opening round. “I think it was very cool to hear, ‘Welcome back.’ It was pretty much every hole.”

But the real story unfolded in his post-round reflections.

What Brooks Koepka said after Torrey Pines

Making the cut was his main goal, and Koepka achieved it. He finished at 4-under, fourteen strokes behind the winner Justin Rose. The warm reception arrived quickly as fans lining the fairways offered encouragement. Koepka responded with fist bumps, autographs, and visible appreciation throughout the week.

“From the first tee on, it was great,” he said. “It actually made me settle down a little bit. It made me feel good just to be out here.” Brooks Koepka admitted he was nervous ahead of his first event back, driven less by concerns about golf and more by how he would be received.

“I just cared about my perception, what people thought or what the fans thought,” Koepka said. “I care about what everybody’s thinking out here. … Just wanted a warm reception.” That reception settled him down from the opening tee shot onward.

Time away from full-time competition shifted his outlook entirely. “I think I’ve fallen back in love with the game,” he said. “Fourteen weeks is a lot of time to think, a lot of time to reflect. … I’m just excited.”

His first tournament is complete. Brooks Koepka now heads to the WM Phoenix Open, ready to continue his journey with Tiger Woods’ support.

Canelo Alvarez has accustomed the boxing world to fighting in May and September on dates important to the Mexican market in the United States.

But 2026 will not be like that, as he had surgery on his left elbow and after losing all his titles in September to Terence Crawford, he will take a year to return to the ring and will do so in Saudi Arabia on September 12 with an opponent yet to be confirmed.

So, with Saturday, May 2, vacant, David Benavidez will appear in Las Vegas to face Gilberto Ramirez in the absence of Saul Alvarez (63-3-2), which he does not care about.

Who will be Canelo Alvarez’s opponent?

While his opponent has not been announced and there are no rumors about it, it is thought that one option could be Christian Mbili (29-0-1), as the WBC made him its interim super middleweight champion after Crawford’s retirement.

Last year, in Dec. 2025, Anthony Joshua and two of his closest friends, Sina Ghami and Kevin Latif Ayodele, found themselves victims of a fatal car crash in Nigeria. While Joshua escaped with minor injuries, Ghami and Ayodele lost their lives. Away from the public eye since then, Joshua recently returned to the spotlight when he shared his first statement on the crash last week.

In a video now doing the rounds on the internet, Joshua could be seen enjoying a children’s soccer game in Hertfordshire, England, while sporting a wide grin on his face and laughing. After weeks of sadness and a downhill journey, Joshua’s smile was enough to melt his fans on the internet.

Deontay Wilder reveals why he chose Chisora over title fight with Usyk

Deontay Wilder has revealed why his mooted matchup with Oleksandr Usyk, for the unified world heavyweight crown, has been replaced by a non-title fight against Derek Chisora.

The former WBC champion was called out by Usyk towards the end of last year, with both parties entering negotiations for their showdown to take place in America.

Earlier this month, though, heavyweight veteran Chisora emerged as a rumoured opponent for ‘The Bronze Bomber’, who also happens to be gearing up for his 50th professional outing.

READ: Anthony Joshua: Concerning New Details Emerge About Driver In

With 100 fights between them, it has now been confirmed that the pair will collide on April 4, headlining a Misfits Pro card in London.

Chisora comes off a string of points victories over Gerald Washington, Joe Joyce and Otto Wallin, which followed his punishing stoppage defeat to Tyson Fury in 2022.

At the age of 42, it is certainly fair to say that the Londoner has seen better days; but so too has Wilder, whose last contest saw him labour to a seventh-round finish over Tyrrell Herndon in June.

Prior to that, the 40-year-old had suffered back-to-back defeats to Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang, with the two fights ending via a wide unanimous decision and fifth-round stoppage, respectively.

But now, Wilder has secured himself a more winnable fight than his scuppered assignment against Usyk, which, speaking with Daily Mail Boxing, he claims talks with the Ukrainian were simpy dragging on too long.

“When you’re in negotiations, sometimes things just take longer than [you expect].

“There was a lot going on – I don’t want to put words in nobody’s mouth, but the process was taking too long. We needed to get out and get a fight.

“I wouldn’t want to call it a warm-up fight – Derek’s no pushover, he’s coming to fight. I’m mentally, physically and emotionally prepared for that.”

With Usyk coming off a fifth-round stoppage victory over Daniel Dubois, and having expressed his desire to enter at least two more fights, it remains to be seen who he will now defend his WBC, IBF and WBA titles against.

LIV Golf stars may be able to sidestep penalties after Rory McIlroy

LIV Golf stars may be able to sidestep penalties after Rory McIlroy message

Rory McIlroy previously urged Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton to settle their DP World Tour fines, but it appears those penalties may soon become a non-issue.

The Northern Irishman has been a vocal opponent of LIV Golf, with the five-time major champion eagerly anticipating Brooks Koepka’s comeback and the chance to compete with him again on the PGA Tour.

McIlroy practically pleaded with his Ryder Cup colleagues, Hatton and Rahm, to clear their DP World Tour debts after both were penalized for participating in LIV Golf tournamentswhile maintaining their European tour memberships, although they filed appeals that remain unresolved.

READ: Tiger Woods’ Record in Danger as Justin Rose Delivers Stunning

This situation enabled their Ryder Cup team eligibility. Flushing It has now revealed that LIV competitors who participate on the DP World Tour may potentially sidestep penalties for taking part in conflicting LIV Golf tournaments.

The proposed arrangement being considered would mandate players to secure approval before entering LIV Golf competitions. Additionally, each would be required to pledge participation in a specified number of DP World Tour tournaments.

Penalties handed down through the 2025 season would still require settlement, however, and LIV Golf has discontinued covering these costs for its athletes.

Neither Rahm nor Hatton has settled their outstanding fines, with both continuing to compete while awaiting their hearings.

“What the DP World Tour is doing is upholding its rules and regulations,” McIlroy stated earlier this year. “We, as members, sign a document at the start of every year, which has you agree to these rules and regulations.

“The people that made the option to go to LIV knew what they were. So I don’t see what’s wrong with that.”

Jon Rahm and Tyrrell Hatton face DP World Tour fines after playing in the LIV Golf league

When asked if it would simplify matters if the two players just paid their fines, McIlroy agreed: “Absolutely, yeah,” he responded. “We went really hard on the Americans about being paid to play the Ryder Cup and we also said that we would pay to play in Ryder Cups. There are two guys that can prove it.”

The grand slam champion further stated, “I think any organization or any members’ organisation like this has a right to uphold its rules and regulations,”.

However, McIlroy expressed skepticism about the possibility of unity between the tours anytime soon.

“I would say that’s Solution A. It matters,” he added. “But I just don’t see a world where it can happen at this point. Just I don’t see a world where the two or three sides or whoever it is will give up enough. Like for reunification to happen, every side is going to feel like they will have lost, where you really want every side to feel like they have won.”

He concluded, “I think they are just too far apart for that to happen.”
