Ryan Garcia has offered an apology to Logan Paul days after the social media star and professional wrestler sued him for defamation.

Garcia, who tested positive for performance-enhancing drug Ostarine ahead of his win over Devin Haney last month, blamed Paul’s Prime drink brand for the results in a baseless social media rant.

And after Paul said in a video last week that Garcia would be ‘held accountable’ for his words, the boxer has seemingly backtracked his accusations.

‘I just want to say I’m sorry,’ Garcia said in an interview with Ana Paula Saenz. ‘I just feel bad for the fight that we’re going through because I’ve known the family for years, bro. This s***’s breaking my heart.’

‘I don’t want to fight with you no more, bro. I don’t got a problem with Prime. I had a problem with you. I’ll drink this s*** right now,’ he continued, taking a sip of the drink.

Paul said Garcia would be ‘held accountable’ for his comments, with Prime suing the boxer

Garcia’s first sample came back positive earlier this month, and it was reported last week by ESPN that his B sample had come back positive as well.

The 25-year-old had previously claimed that Prime will ‘kill your guys’s brains,’ ‘mess up your guys’s liver,’ and ‘hurt you big time.’

He even said, ‘I drank Prime and I tested positive for ostarine.’

After those comments, Paul claimed his uber-popular drinks company was  ‘under attack’ and announced Garcia was being sued.

‘Today we begin to hold those accountable who’ve damaged our brand for attention while we correct the narrative,’ Paul wrote on Instagram Thursday, alongside an image of the lawsuit filed in a Texas court.

‘We’re here to stay and will continue to change the world of hydration with bold flavors and creative innovation,’ he added.

Prime is suing Garcia for defamation, trade libel, violations of Lanham Act, unfair competition and unjust enrichment.

As for Garcia’s fight with Haney, the latter is calling for the fight to be ruled a disqualification win.

Garcia has previously maintained his innocence, but wrote ‘I F***ING LOVE STEROIDS’ in a possible troll post after his B sample was announced as positive.

‘I don’t care I’ll never make money again with boxing your loss not mine for setting me up lol joke on yall,’ he added.

Dana White believes Conor McGregor and Mike Tyson are two of the smartest men alive when it comes to fighting.

The UFC boss helped ‘Notorious’ become a global superstar worth £200 million, but it wouldn’t have been possible without some exceptional performance in the Octagon.

McGregor ruthlessly ran through the featherweight division before knocking out long-time champion Jose Aldo to take his newfound fame to extraordinary heights in 2015.

The Irishman went on to win another belt at lightweight before cashing in on his celebrity status with a crossover boxing bout against Floyd Mayweather, which made him $100 million.

Tyson enjoyed a similarly destructive run in boxing before losing his undisputed heavyweight championship in the biggest upset of all time against Buster Douglas in 1990.

White believes his biggest UFC star and ‘Iron Mike’ share one key trait that makes them great.

The MMA mogul says McGregor and Tyson have ‘off the charts’ fighter IQ.

Fight IQ is essentially ring or Octagon intelligence. More than mastering technique, it’s the art of understanding when to do certain things during a fight and the ability to make adjustments in the heat of battle.

“When you hear him speak, he’s very articulate about fighting,” White said about McGregor on the In Search of Excellence Podcast.

“Again, when you talk fighter IQ. Like, [Mike] Tyson, Conor’s fighter IQ is off the charts.”

White also praised McGregor’s business acumen after he went from collecting dole cheques ahead of his UFC debut to topping Forbes’ list of rich athletes in 2021.

He added: “Conor is a tremendous businessman.”

“I mean, Conor is one of the best partners, if not the best partner, we have ever had when it comes to being in business with somebody.

“If you look at all the brands he has built off of his brand, [he’s a] very, very sharp kid.”

McGregor hasn’t fought in nearly three years, but he’s still the UFC’s biggest star because he’s stayed in the spotlight since getting injured in July 2021.

The 35-year-old will make his comeback against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 on June 29 – but first, the two men are expected to embark on a world tour to promote the event.

A win will put McGregor in line for a title shot and a defeat will leave his MMA career in limbo.

Whatever happens, White is sure McGregor will be fine as he’s got the fighter IQ to get back on track and the business brain to make money away from MMA if he chooses to.

The legends of the boxing world are abuzz with reactions to Mike Tyson’s latest training footage. Among them, Evander Holyfield, Tyson’s longtime rival, has expressed genuine concern for one of Tyson’s potential future opponents – Jake Paul.

In a recent interview, Holyfield, a former heavyweight champion, shared his thoughts on Tyson’s impressive physical transformation and the implications it could have for the upcoming fight between Tyson and Paul, a popular YouTuber-turned-boxer.

“I’m scared for Jake,” Holyfield stated bluntly. “Mike looks like he’s in great shape, and he’s still got that power. Jake is a good fighter, but he’s going to have his hands full if he steps in the ring with Mike.”

Holyfield’s comments come on the heels of Tyson’s latest training session, which has sent shockwaves through the boxing community. Footage of the 55-year-old legend unleashing a flurry of lightning-fast punches and showcasing his endurance has left many in awe, reminding fans of Tyson’s unparalleled skills in his prime.

The prospect of a matchup between Tyson and the 26-year-old Paul has been a topic of intense speculation, with many wondering if the younger fighter would be able to withstand the ferocity of the former heavyweight champion.

Holyfield, who has faced Tyson twice in legendary battles, understands the magnitude of the challenge that Paul would face. “Mike is still a force to be reckoned with,” Holyfield said. “Jake better be prepared for the fight of his life if he wants to have a chance against Tyson.”

As the boxing world eagerly awaits the potential clash between the two, Holyfield’s words serve as a stark warning to Paul and a testament to Tyson’s enduring legacy as one of the greatest boxers of all time.

In a shocking turn of events, boxing legend Mike Tyson has set his sights on a new target – internet sensation turned professional boxer, Jake Paul. In a recent exclusive interview, the former heavyweight champion made some startling remarks that have the combat sports world buzzing.

“I’m training to kill him, man,” Tyson said with a steely gaze. “I’m going to go in there and put everything I have into destroying Jake Paul. This isn’t just another fight for me, this is personal.”

The bad blood between Tyson and Paul seems to stem from an ongoing feud that has been simmering for months. The two have exchanged barbs on social media, with Paul repeatedly taunting the iconic Tyson and challenging him to a lucrative showdown in the ring.

“He keeps running his mouth, talking all this nonsense about how he’s going to beat me,” Tyson continued. “Well, I’m here to tell him that he’s in for the fight of his life. I’m going to show the world that he’s nothing but a pretender, and that I’m still the baddest man on the planet.”

Tyson, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest boxers of all time, has not competed professionally since 2005. However, the 55-year-old has been keeping himself in remarkable shape, fueling speculation that he may be gearing up for a comeback.

The prospect of Tyson and Paul sharing the ring has sent shockwaves throughout the combat sports community. Fans are eager to see if the former champion can still bring the same ferocity and power that once made him a global superstar, or if the younger, more experienced Paul can pull off the upset of a lifetime.

One thing is certain – the hype surrounding this potential fight is reaching a fever pitch, and the anticipation among fans is palpable. With Tyson’s ominous warning and his vow to “kill” his opponent, the stage is set for a collision course that could go down as one of the most captivating events in recent boxing history.

Mike Tyson, the legendary boxer, experienced a frightening medical emergency while on a flight from Miami to Los Angeles, just weeks before his highly anticipated fight against Jake Paul. The incident, which took place on Monday (AEST), has left fans deeply concerned about

Tyson’s health and readiness for the upcoming bout. According to In Touch Weekly, the unsettling episode occurred mid-flight, prompting an urgent response from the crew and paramedics. A source revealed, “Mike had some kind of medical emergency on the plane and paramedics boarded. Before the paramedics arrived, the flight issued an announcement asking for a doctor — the message even came on everyone’s screens.” The situation caused a 25-minute delay in disembarking the plane.

Passengers in first class, where Tyson was seated, witnessed the commotion. One passenger recounted, “He was in first class, but we were in an exit row and the stewardess was very chatty. They asked us to stay on the plane and landed so paramedics could enter. She said something like, ‘He’s a really important passenger so we wanna make sure he’s OK’. I knew it was him, but I just mouthed the words ‘Mike Tyson’ and she nodded her head yes.”

Despite the medical scare, Tyson’s representatives assured fans that he is “doing great.” In an email to the New York Post, they explained, “He became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare-up 30 minutes before landing. He is appreciative of the medical staff that were there to help him.” Tyson, who turns 58 next month, is scheduled to fight Jake Paul. The upcoming bout has sparked debates about whether Tyson, at his age, should be stepping back into the ring, especially against a younger opponent like Paul.

Jake Paul quickly responded to the news on social media: “You love to make up stories before knowing the facts for clicks and likes. Nothing changed!” Fans, however, expressed mixed reactions, with some urging the fight to be canceled due to Tyson’s health concerns.

Sergio Perez has accused Kevin Magnussen of ‘dangerous driving’ after their massive collision on the opening lap of the Monaco Grand Prix.

The Mexican, starting 16th, was tagged by the Haas of Magnussen heading uphill after the first corner. The Dane’s front left caught Perez’s rear right, sending the latter into the barriers in a huge 160mph crash.

Perez rebounded off the wall and into the other Haas of Nico Hulkenberg, as his Red Bull became a pinball before it finally came to rest on the circuit.

His car was written off with just one wheel left attached, though the strength of today’s cars was shown off, as he walked away without injury.

However, the Red Bull star was not happy that Magnussen didn’t receive any penalty, for what he felt was causing the crash.

He said: ‘This was more dangerous driving, just to keep it flat out knowing that there was going to come contact at some point.

‘I think that was some dangerous driving. We need to ask for a reason why it’s not been investigated because without an investigation we don’t get a reason why it wasn’t a penalty. I’m really surprised.’

Magnussen, who is currently on 10 penalty points, two short of a race ban, felt Perez should have left him space.

Perez though responded: ‘You sometimes find yourself in a position and you have to take a very quick decision to say: “There’s only one way of it and it’s going to be contact, so I’d better back out.” But he will go for the contact.’

Magnussen’s team-mate Hulkenberg, who also retired following the collision, said that the crash was ‘unneccessary’.

In a mad start, the two Alpines also tangled, sending Esteban Ocon airborne on the entry to the tunnel. He landed safely but retired from the race under the red flag due to the damage his car suffered.

Ocon was handed a 10-second penalty, but he didn’t restart the race in any case.

Carlos Sainz, running third for Ferrari, stopped at Casino Square as he appeared to go in too deep, after contact with Oscar Piastri at the start.

Stewards confirmed Sainz would resume in third at the restart, with drivers having not progressed enough around the first lap to establish a new order.

The race resumed without Perez, Magnussen, Hulkenberg and Ocon following the crash.

Speaking on Sky Sports, former world champion Jenson Button suggested Perez and Magnussen should have given each other more room.

‘It’s surprising [Perez] knew [Magnussen] was there and didn’t move to the left a little bit more,’ Button said.

‘It was a horrible impact and because you’re going at such a high speed there you end up about 300 metres away from the incident.

‘It’s a real strange one. You’ve got to say both guys should have given each other more room.

‘Is it a racing incident? It kind of is because Checo knew Kevin was there and maybe should have given him a little bit more room, but if a car is coming to the right doing 150mph, I’d back out.’

Max Verstappen was nowhere near in contention for winning the 2024 Monaco GP, having started the race from sixth position. Before the lights went out, he knew he was in for a dull outing, but his comments post-race, which mirrored those of Lewis Hamilton’s in the past, suggest that he was more bored than he initially thought he would be.

Verstappen and Mercedes driver George Russell appeared together for an interview in the aftermath of the Monaco GP on Sunday. The Dutch driver said,

“I think George and I are gonna go for a run now. My god that was terrible. So boring”.

Overtaking in Monaco is difficult – sometimes regarded as near impossible – which takes away the element of racing away from the Grand Prix. Verstappen now knows how it feels to be stuck in a position for 78 laps, with nothing he can do to change the outcome of his race.

However, F1 drivers complaining how boring the Monaco GP is isn’t new. A three-time winner in the Principality, Lewis Hamilton once said, “I would be shocked if anyone was awake at home because I would have been asleep on the couch.” 

For world champion-level drivers like Verstappen and Hamilton, driving in the same position for two hours without any clear opportunity to overtake would be frustrating. However, when they are in the lead, the mood changes.

Verstappen won in 2021, and again in 2023, and he didn’t complain about the race being too boring then. Similarly, another person who won’t complain about the 2024 Monaco GP being lackluster, is Charles Leclerc.

Charles Leclerc closes the gap to Max Verstappen

After five years of heartbreak in his home race, Charles Leclerc finally stood on the top step of the podium in Monaco. In doing so, he also closed the gap to Max Verstappen in the Drivers’ Championship Standings.

The Dutch driver is now just 31 points ahead of Leclerc. And while that gap is still substantial, Verstappen is wary of the races to come.

After his dull affair in Monte Carlo, Verstappen admitted that he expects a similar outing in Canada in two weeks. Red Bull is struggling to deal with the kerbs and bumps on track. And Montreal having a similar layout on that front, could make things difficult for the Milton-Keynes-based outfit once again.
