🥊 Teófimo Lopez versus Jamaine Ortiz for the WBO and The Ring Super Lightweight championship of the world
https://box.live/fights/lopez-vs-ortiz/ – Nevada time zone
Teófimo Lopez dethroned the Ukrainian Vasiliy Lomachenko who was supposed to be the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world until he met Lopez. It should be an easy night for Teofímo Lopez. Devin Haney is the real power in that division. Lopez is really good to watch tho.
Also on the card is Keyshawn Davis vs Jose Pedraza – https://box.live/fights/davis-vs-pedraza/ – at lightweight. Davis is heavily favoured.

Hurling on Sunday the 11th
I think I cursed the Cork teams
I like the Irish language commentary a lot though. For the first time I understood something other than agus lol
‘cúilín’ is a ‘point’
‘cic saor’ is a ‘free kick’ and ‘puc saor’ is a ‘free strike with a hurley’
You’ll heard those a lot. I won’t give you more than you can remember.
Please, I can handle it. I’ll be my own gaelscoil soon enough.
Go raibh maith agat!
I don’t have anyone to really talk wrestling with anymore since getting rid of my reddit account, and thus, my access to SquaredCircle-- so I’mma ask it here; has anyone been paying attention to the Johnson Screwjob going on over in WWE right now as the cynical attempted “look over here!!” attempt on the part of TKO Holdings to take eyes off the latest McMahon case?
Holy fuck I actually feel bad for Cody Rhodes no kayfabe rn.
My friend’s really into wrestling and he’s been filling me in somewhat. I hear the fans are basically rioting about it. The other day he showed me that match where Cody fought while having a torn pectoral and pushing through the pain. I can see why they love the guy. And then this happens! Wow, I get why they’re so pissed. And I didn’t know like, anything about Vince McMahon, all I knew was my friend doesn’t like him cuz he’s an asshole apparently? And then he said “oh yeah he’s going to federal prison for sex trafficking etc” and I was like, wait what???
The wrestling world is very… interesting lol.
Gotta catch african cup final
Haha I couldn’t find anything to list for Friday
Ah ok, how about this:
- RB Salzburg versus SK Sturm Graz, one of the key games that will determine the Austrian ⚽🇦🇹 league; they are the top two, five points clear of everyone else
a close title race in the Bundesliga, and with someone other than Dortmund? that’s a novelty, might check that out
same could be said of La Liga
true, I don’t recall Girona being good in previous seasons, I started watching Barcelona games again a bit because of the recent drama, their defense is really leaky compared to last year lol
Looks like Leverkusen are likely lads for the Cup this year too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023–24_DFB-Pokal
Barça are having a bad season, there’s debate over why. Xavi is being pushed out.
Oh Haaland is back, I haven’t seen him since December
