Mike Tyson and Jake Paul finally went head-to-head in a highly-anticipated fight that had fans on the edge of their seats. The event took place at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and was preceded by an intense battle between Ireland's own Katie Taylor and Puerto Rico's Amanda Serrano.
The atmosphere was electric as both boxers traded blows for ten rounds, with Taylor ultimately emerging victorious in a controversial split decision. The crowd was on their feet, cheering and jeering as the two fighters gave it their all.
But the real excitement came in the main event, as 58-year-old Tyson faced off against 27-year-old Paul. Despite the hype surrounding the fight, it turned out to be a lackluster affair, with Paul stumbling his way to a points victory after eight rounds. Many fans were left disappointed and felt that Paul should have fought a more credible opponent.
However, the night was not without its memorable moments. The live coverage was criticized for constant buffering, but it was during this time that Taylor and Serrano put on a show for the ages. Their epic battle was deemed one of the fights of the year, with Taylor proving herself to be a true champion.
In the end, it was a bittersweet night for sports fans in Dallas. The Monday Night Football game between the Dallas Cowboys and their neighboring team from Houston is predicted to be another drab affair. But for those looking to make a bet, the Texans are favored to win by more than 4.5 points and the total points scored to be under 40.5.
Moving on to the Irish Greyhound Derby, three out of four of our selections made it to the final at Shelbourne Park. Unfortunately, our fourth pick, March On Freddie, was eliminated in the semi-finals. However, his full brother Bockos Diamond continued his unbeaten streak and is now favored to win the £104,000 first prize.
The final race is sure to be a thrilling one, with Cheap Sandwiches, BoyleSports Bob, and Singalong Dolly also competing for the top spot. And although Freddie may have let us down, we can still make a profit by placing each-way bets on these three dogs.
In other sporting news, Sir Alex Ferguson is proving that he's still a winner even in his retirement. His horse, L'Eau Du Sud, has been impressing at the Cotswold course and has now been cut from 40/1 to 16/1 to win the Arkle at the Cheltenham Festival in March. It seems that Sir Alex's winning ways just can't be stopped.
The night may have had its ups and downs, but one thing is for sure - fans will be talking about this event for a long time to come. And while some may have been disappointed by the main event, the undercard fights proved to be truly unforgettable.
