Serena Williams faces an unexpected mishap upon arriving at the Teatro Campoamor to receive a major award

There are moments that seem small, yet stay in your memory. Serena Williams experienced one of those as she stepped out of the car in front of the Teatro Campoamor, ready to receive the 2025 Princess of Asturias Award for Sports, a recognition that celebrates not only her tennis career but also the positive impact she has made beyond the court.

She wore a red dress paired with matching sneakers, a look that blended elegance and comfort with her personal touch. Just as she stepped out of the vehicle, her dress got slightly caught on one of her shoes. Serena adjusted it calmly, with the natural ease that has always distinguished her. There was no rush, no nerves, just confidence and style in every movement.

The Princess of Asturias Award for Sports recognizes sporting excellence and the ability to inspire beyond the field, and Serena received it the way only she can, with simplicity, confidence, and a charisma that makes every gesture meaningful. That brief adjustment of her dress became a reflection of her character, human, elegant, and unpretentious, showing that even the smallest details can speak of greatness.

Transparency and Attitude

Fixing her dress didn’t diminish her presence; it enhanced it. She greeted attendees, smiled naturally, and made it clear that she doesn’t need to pretend to shine. On social media, many celebrated Serena receiving such a well-deserved award, while others debated whether other tennis players might have earned it too. Does one value career achievements more, or the inspiration left beyond the court?

In the end, Serena Williams showed that true greatness is not measured by avoiding minor mishaps, but by facing them with confidence, elegance, and authenticity. A simple gesture of adjusting her dress became a quiet lesson, to shine is to be yourself, even in the most formal moments and under everyone’s gaze.

Canelo Alvarez reappears after surgery following defeat to Terence

By Admin October 28, 2025

Canelo Alvarez has been in the news a lot in recent years, however, after his recent defeat to Terence Crawford, the environment of the former champion from Guadalajara has been quieter than usual.

Now, Saul Alvarez has reappeared on social media, with a photo that has moved several of his fans, but also worries about the physical condition of Alvarez Barragan.

Through his Instagram, Canelo Alvarez uploaded a photo where he can be seen sitting on a couch with two of his daughters, Maria Fernanda Alvarez and baby Eva Victoria Alvarez. But, although the Guadalajara-born fighter looks calm, what worries several of his fans is that Canelo Alvarez is wearing a sling on his left arm, as he was recently operated on.

What was Canelo Alvarez operated on for?

Canelo Alvarez underwent surgery on his left elbow on October 23, 2025, in a surgical procedure called arthroscopy that serves to clean and repair accumulated damage in his left joint.

Some of Saul Alvarez’s fans wondered if Canelo’s surgery was caused by the fight with Terence Crawford, but this is not the case, as Alvarez Barragan suffered the damage to his left elbow from all the years he has fought in elite boxing.

Canelo Alvarez’s next fight would not be until mid-2026 and his recent surgery would prevent him from getting into the ring before that date. It is still unknown who Saul Alvarez’s next opponent might be, although many believe he could fight Terence Crawford again to regain all his titles.

What is true is that Canelo Alvarez has shown another side since he lost to Terence Crawford, as he has shown himself to be more attached to his family. Recently, he congratulated his son Emily Cinnamon on his 18th birthday; now, Canelo reappears hand in hand with his other two daughters and his injured arm, hinting that perhaps his family will now be the priority and that the time is approaching to put aside the boxing gloves.

“Of Course It Interests Him”: Anthony Joshua Offered One Of The

Anthony Joshua Offered One Of The Only Fights He Wants

Anthony Joshua has been out of the boxing ring for more than a year but is keen to get back in early 2026.

His last fight came in September 2024 against Daniel Dubois, the then IBF world champion who had been on a great recent run and stopped Jarrell Miller and Filip Hrgovic.

Dubois continued that form at Wembley Stadium. From the opening bell, he unleashed a barrage of powerful punches that sent AJ crashing to the canvas early on, and he never seemed to fully recover.

Joshua, chasing a third heavyweight crown, looked uncharacteristically off-balance and heavy-footed as Dubois’s precision and aggression ruled the night.

Come the fifth round, ‘DDD’ landed more heavy blows and sent Joshua to the canvas one final time as the former unified ruler was counted out by the referee.

After that, Dubois went into an undisputed heavyweight showdown with Oleksandr Usyk. It was the second time they had fought and just like the first time, he was stopped inside the distance but many think he has what it takes to become a champion again.

Dubois has not fought since that contest back in August but now, with a new coach Tony Sims in his corner, he is ready to return.

Speaking to iFL TV, he was asked if a Joshua rematch interests him.

“Of course it does. Of course it does.”

Joshua’s manager, Eddie Hearn, has spoken before of Joshua’s desire to avenge his loss to Dubois, so this could be a fight to be made, though WBC interim belt holder Agit Kabayel has also shown an interest in taking on Dubois sometime soon.

Tiger Woods names three golfing idols he wishes were

Tiger Woods names three golfing idols he wishes were mic’d

In the future, major changes are expected in the world of sports, including the world of golf. One of the innovations that could be introduced is players being mic’d up. This approach has already been introduced by TGL, a popular technology league created by Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. Namely, they wanted to allow fans to have a more exciting experience, as if they were present on the course, given that each participant is completely microphone-covered.

Tiger Woods thinks that such an idea is great, and in an interview for the TGL Jupiter Links Golf Club team’s YouTube channel, he spoke about the legends of this sport.

JUST IN: How Close Is Scottie Scheffler to Breaking Crazy Tiger Woods Rec

Namely, Tiger named three players from his childhood who he would have liked to have played while being mic’d up.

“Well, Lee Buck (Trevino) for sure. Tommy Bolt would have been awesome … and Jim Thorpe,” Woods said.

All three names are well-known to golf fans, especially those older ones who enjoyed their performances.

Trevino was special for his charisma, character and humor. This is the reason why he had a huge fan base and why people still remember his performances and statements with nostalgia today.

In addition, Bolt was a similar player and often had impulsive reactions on the golf courses.

Thorpe was known for certain antics during his career, but he still remains a legend of the sport.

Whether the PGA Tour will take a similar approach in the future and want to cover the players with a microphone during the broadcasts remains to be seen, but it seems that such an idea is still far from being realized.

Is the PGA Tour ready for such a step?

If we were to look at how open fans are to such options, it is certain that younger golf fans are more open to such changes than older fans.

Be that as it may, the PGA Tour, as well as LIV Golf, pointed out that they are ready for innovation.

We will see if these innovations include microphone coverage of players during brodcasts.

How Close Is Scottie Scheffler to Breaking Crazy Tiger Woods Rec

By Admin October 28, 2025

Scottie Scheffler Is Very Close to Breaking Crazy Tiger Woods Record as New Stat Surfaces

Scottie Scheffler’s golf resume has been nothing but remarkable. The World No. 1 has dominated the PGA Tour this season with six wins. Scheffler especially thrives under pressure, showcasing flawless ball striking and a calm presence. Right from his old days at Texas to wearing the green jacket twice, his journey showcases that discipline and talent can redefine greatness. Now, Scheffler is set to create yet another milestone, one that Tiger Woodshad set.

A recent Instagram post showcased the all-time PGA Tour money leaders. Scheffler’s earnings have surged to $99 million, which is close to Wood’s record $120 million. In only a few seasons, Scheffler is leading with the numbers and is ahead of legends like Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson. At this pace, the 29-year-old might just break Woods’ record, cementing his place among golf’s most dominant forces.

READ: Tiger Woods Makes Honest Confession About His Declining

Scheffler’s streak this year has been extraordinary. He has won the title at the Masters, the Players, and the Arnold Palmer Invitational, while also finishing in the top 10 in almost every start. His focus off the tee and precision have made him the man to beat week after week. Scheffler plans to return to action at the Procore Championship, focusing on closing the year with another victory to his name.

Meanwhile, his steady climb up the PGA Tour’s all-time money list puts his success in perspective. Rory McIlroy, sitting at $107 million, remains one of the few ahead of him. Meanwhile, Phil Mickelson and Dustin Johnson trail at $96 million and $75 million, respectively. Yet, none have matched Scheffler’s pace of earning. The American has achieved nearly $100 million in record time.

Scheffler’s story goes back to Ridgewood, New Jersey and where he learned golf at the age of three in Dallas, Texas. Having supportive parents helped him to go for junior tournaments, learning early lessons of discipline. He became a collegiate star at the University of Texas and earned his PGA Tour card in 2019.

His rise has been fast since then. Now, with nearly $100 million in career earnings, the kid who once practiced under Texas sunsets stands on the verge of surpassing Tiger Woods’ legendary record.

Scottie Scheffler is Redefining Golf’s Financial Game

With six wins already this year, Scottie Scheffler is racing toward a financial threshold that few in golf have even threatened. In addition to his dominance on the course, he is something of a phenomenon off it in endorsements and bonuses. As the sport’s money engines are starting to rev, his ascent could announce a new benchmark for elite players.

He’s not just winning tournaments. He’s winning the game of golf as well. With prize money, bonus structures, and endorsement deals all in place, Scheffler is constructing a ledger that extends well beyond yellow jackets and trophies.

Scheffler’s story isn’t one of sudden fame. Scheffler turned pro in 2018 and climbed his way up, season by season, until he reached world number one. By mid-2025, he’d already earned about $27.7 million on the course, plus another $23 million in bonuses. Add deals with Nike, TaylorMade, and Rolex, and his estimated net worth has crossed $100 million.

In modern golf, a single win can shift millions of dollars. Scheffler sits right where sport meets business. His results prove that talent still matters most. But in today’s world, it’s magnified by media attention and global sponsorships.

“What Else Is Left For You?”: Canelo Offered Mega Fight Lifeline Fo

“What Else Is Left For You?”: Canelo Offered Mega Fight Lifeline Following Terence Crawford Loss

Canelo Alvarez appears to have been offered yet another ‘mega-fight’ just weeks after he was beaten by Terence Crawford.

The Mexican great was handed the third defeat of his professional career by ‘Bud’ Crawford when they clashed in Las Vegas on September 13, surrendering his undisputed super-middleweight world championship in the process.

Canelo had gone into his clash with the American star as the favourite but could not match the tempo that had been set by ‘Bud’ on fight night, leaving him faced with a style that appeared to frustrate him over the course of their historic 12-round clash.

JUST IN: Why Deontay Wilder is Now More Likely to Face Usyk Than Tyson Fury

As he prepares to enter what could be the final few years of his decorated career, Canelo has been offered an opportunity to finally lock horns with long-term rival David Benavidez, who currently holds the WBC light-heavyweight title.

In an interview with talkSPORT, Benavidez claimed that he is ‘still hopeful’ that a showdown between himself and Canelo can be made, as he admits he is targeting ‘all the belts’ at light-heavyweight.

“No I haven’t given up complete hope in that fight. I feel like until he retires and he’s out of the sport of boxing, there’s always going to be a possibility of that fight being made.

“And for good reason because at the end of the day, what other fight is there left for Canelo? And now it seems like I got the cards in my hands, he doesn’t have any belt at 168 and I have a belt at 175 and I’m planning to get all the belts at 175.”

Benavidez is set to make the first defence of his WBC world title next month as he prepares to face Britain’s two-time world title challenger Anthony Yarde on Saturday November 22 at the ANB Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Why Deontay Wilder is Now More Likely to Face Usyk Than Tyson Fury

By Admin October 25, 2025

Boxing fans’ heavyweight landscape just shifted dramatically as Tyson Fury confirms he will not pursue a comeback after Oleksandr Usyk ruled out a third fight.

In response, Fury’s decision to step away from the ring is permanent. Fury’s decision to reaffirm his exile means former rival Deontay Wilder is now more likely to face Usyk in the future as the most significant name option.

READ: Oleksandr Uysk’s next opponent is confirmed

Fury Explains Why He’s Walking Away
Speaking to channel FurociTV, Fury explained his thinking in stark terms:

“There’s no actual reason for me to go back in the boxing ring. I’m 37, and I’ve been punched for 25 years. It used to be about money, about titles, but now I’ve got more than I could ever spend and all the belts I could dream of. Does it make me happier? No.”

He continued:

“The climb was better than the peak. I could go back anytime, but I just don’t want to. Boxing doesn’t take prisoners—it only takes casualties. I’ve done well to come out intact. I’m not tempting fate anymore.”

Fury’s promoter Frank Warren echoed the sentiment, noting the Gypsy King has no interest in chasing further glory or risking long-term damage.

Fury Chapter Closed
For fans hoping for a blockbuster Usyk-Fury trilogy, WBN can confirm that chapter is effectively closed. Fury’s focus has shifted away from heavyweight boxing in the ring, and his return now seems contingent on an unprecedented circumstance.

“You could offer me one billion today, and it wouldn’t move the needle,” Fury said. “I’ve gone past caring what other people think.”

Usyk’s Road Ahead
While Fury steps back, Usyk is looking forward. Team Leader Sergey Lapin told Ready To Fight:

“A trilogy with Fury is no longer a priority—that chapter is closed.”

Usyk plans around five more fights, with a possible return in early 2026. WBN understands Joseph Parker vs Fabio Wardley is next, followed by Agit Kabayel in Germany. A voluntary bout with Deontay Wilder could happen if the American first racks up standout wins.

Wilder has long expressed interest in a clash with Usyk, as mandatory obligations push a Wilder clash to 2027

The former pound-for-pound king will eventually clear his two remaining mandatory defenses—the IBF and WBA—before retiring, aiming to finish his storied career at age 41 on top.

Young Blood vs Experience
While emerging talents like Moses Itauma are on the horizon, Usyk’s camp remains confident: experience and skill are still firmly on the Ukrainian’s side.

Fury’s decision may have closed the door on one of boxing’s most unnecessary trilogies, but it leaves the path clear for Usyk to continue his reign.

For fans, the heavyweight division promises drama, high stakes, and marquee matchups for at least another three years before the new generation steps forward.

The Possible Usyk Plan
Spring 2026 | Parker or Wardley

Fall 2026 | Agit Kabayel

Early 2027 | Deontay Wilder

Mid 2027 | IBF or WBA mandatory

Career Finale | IBF or WBA mandatory

Terence Crawford stole something much greater from Canelo Alvarez than his undisputed belts

By Admin October 24, 2025

Over a month later, Terence Crawford’s performance in the most important bout of his life remains outstanding.

Taking on Canelo Alvarez in front of a biased crowd in Las Vegas, “Bud” came out to go toe-to-toe with Alvarez and did more than that.

Crawford handily beat Alvarez, delivering another masterclass in technically proficient boxing against an opponent that many other fighters have been too scared to attack. In the process, he became undisputed in a third weight class. But Crawford may have taken something more important from Alvarez than his super middleweight belts.

Is Terence Crawford the new “Face of Boxing”?

For years, Alvarez has been dubbed the “Face of Boxing”. Even the Mexican himself has accepted the moniker. But after losing to Crawford, Jaron “Boots” Ennis believes there’s a new “face” in town now.

“He just beat Canelo, the face of boxing. So that makes Crawford the face of boxing at the moment.”

That’s certainly logical, but Alvarez earning that moniker goes deeper than just winning fights. Canelo is a superstar in every sense of the word, and his out-of-ring persona has become larger than life.

Crawford is the better boxer at this moment in time, and arguably over the course of their respective careers, but he simply can’t sell and bring in revenue like Alvarez can. He absolutely has the bragging rights, though, and can steal Canelo’s nickname for now.

“I’m Not Scared Of You”: Hall Of Fame Legend Wants To Face Gervonta Davis

By Admin October 24, 2025

A Hall of Fame great remains interested in a potential future showdown with three-weight world champion Gervonta Davis.

Davis currently reigns as the WBA lightweight champion with his most recent defence coming against countryman Lamont Roach Jr back in March, although their New York City meeting ended in a controversial majority decision draw.

The 30-year-old from Baltimore has racked up 28 stoppage victories since making his professional debut, defeating the likes of Ryan Garcia, Rolando Romero and Leo Santa Cruz inside the scheduled distance.

JUST IN: Oleksandr Uysk’s next opponent is confirmed

He is now preparing for an exhibition clash with Jake Paul on November 14, but Davis appears to be on the radar of Filipino icon Manny Pacquiao, who made a sensational comeback to the sport back in July.

As revealed by Mike Coppinger on the Inside The Ring Show, Pacquiao is said to be keen on a potential clash with Davis in the near future.

“I spoke to Pacquiao’s adviser Sean Gibbons who also runs his promotional company, he says the three names they are looking at are Rolly Romero, Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis and Conor Benn. Those are the fights for Manny right now, whether they are the first or the second fight, those are the guys he’s looking at.”

In a separate interview with Seconds Out, the eight-division world champion claimed that he ‘isn’t scared’ of facing someone of Davis’ calibre, despite him being on the verge of turning 47-years-old.

‘PacMan’ made his return to the ring against reigning WBC welterweight champion Mario Barrios on July 19, fighting to a majority decision draw against ‘El Azteca’ in Las Vegas.

The 46-year-old is expected to make his 74th ring appearance in the early stages of 2026, with reports suggesting that he could lock horns with WBA welterweight champion ‘Rolly’ Romero next.

Oleksandr Uysk’s next opponent is confirmed with undisputed champion set to return to action in first half of 2026

Frank Warren has confirmed the winner of Joseph Parker vs Fabio Wardley at the O2 on Saturday evening will face Oleksandr Usyk next.

Parker and Wardley top the bill on Saturday’s Queensberry Promotions card at the O2, where the New Zealander will defend his interim WBO heavyweight crown.

Victory for either fighter will secure mandatory challenger status for the WBO title currently held by Usyk, who also reigns as the unified and Ring Magazine heavyweight champion.

READ: Oleksandr Usyk Reveals the Truth About His Role During the War

Under the governing bodies’ system, the WBO is next in line to call a mandatory defence. That order was originally issued in July, but plans were pushed back following Usyk’s back injury.

There had been speculation that Usyk might vacate his titles to pursue a third fight with Anthony Joshua or a showdown with Tyson Fury. However, Warren appears to have dismissed those suggestions.

Usyk is expected to return to action in the first half of 2026, and the Parker-Wardley winner now appears poised to be first in line for a shot at the undisputed champion when he steps back into the ring.

Speaking at Thursday’s press conference, Warren said: ‘At the moment in heavyweight division, it’s the best fight out there.

‘These two guys have stepped up. Neither of them needed to, neither of them needed to make this fight. You know Joe Parker. He’s the interim champion.

‘The WBO already ordered that Usyk has to defend his belt against him. But he’s injured. Joe could have sat around and waited but he said no. He said he wanted to fight anyway.

‘From Fabio, again, he’s in a fantastic position, and he only had to wait his time, and he would have got a crack at the title. He also said no, I want to fight as well. And not only that, I want to fight Joe Parker.

‘These guys are well trained. They’ve not left anything, no stone unturned. They’re in their best condition. You’re going to get something special on the night. And the prize is there for the winner. The winner gets the fight, Mr Usyk. They will get to fight for the WBO belt and all other three belts.

‘Mr Usyk has said that he will take on the winner of Parker vs Wardley. He has said that he will take that fight next year. So, that’s the prize they are fighting for. It’s all or nothing for the winner.’

Meanwhile, Parker’s manager David Higgins said: ‘I have to admit, a little bit cynical about Usyk’s motivation for what is next. But, I was involved in a couple of phone calls that were quite encouraging the week.

‘Those phone calls suggested to me that Usyk absolutely does value the unified position and will honour it. Now I’m increasingly confident in the winner of this fight [Parker vs Wardley] will get a shot for the undisputed title which makes this a very exciting eliminator situation.’
