“The Destroyer” (15-0, 10 KOs) rallied after taking a lot of punishment in the opening round of his debut as a headliner.

The London club has seen 14 coaches come and go in the 14 and a half years since Roman Abramovich’s takeover, but have won every major title in the same timeframe. Conte has already passed the average life expectancy of a Chelsea manager of less than a year and a half, but reports of an imminent departure continue to circulate. With Chelsea sitting 19 points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City, many have predicted Conte’s Chelsea days will come to a similar end to that of Jose Mourinho, who was sacked less than a year after guiding the Blues to the league title in his second stint at Stamford Bridge....

For Jesse, there’s no escaping the supernatural now that she’s the Director of the Federal Bureau of Control. Being the Director means answering directly to the Board, a league of extradimensional beings who advise and guide the Director; the Board is also the keeper of the Service Weapon.

Test-match specialist Cook - England’s leading run scorer in the longest format - last featured in a one-day international for England in 2014, while he has not made a Twenty20 appearance since 2009.

The Seleção tops Group B after two games with six points, and is currently two points ahead of Colombia, which has played a game more as Brazil sat out the third round of games over the weekend—the format of five teams per group means not every team plays on the same day as its group rivals. Brazil has so far lived up to its tag of pre-tournament favorite, scoring seven goals and keeping two clean sheets in its first two games and looking in great shape to defend the title they secured on home soil two years ago....

Last month, the Ligue de Football Professionel (LFP) confirmed the final standings had been decided on a points-per-game basis after French Prime Minister Edouard Phillipe banned all sporting events in France until September due to the coronavirus pandemic, meaning a restart of the league was not possible. The decision meant Amiens were relegated alongside Toulouse, with Lorient and Lens promoted from the second tier. Joannin initially reacted to that announcement by saying Amiens reserved the right to appeal against the decision, labelling the ruling an “injustice” given then they still had 10 games left to play....
