Jake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr LIVE RESULTS: Card on NOW ahead of Problem Child's brawl with boxing legend's son
SOCIAL media superstar turned boxer, Jake Paul, is hoping to take another huge scalp TONIGHT when he faces Mexican mogul Julio Cesar Chavez Jr!
The Problem Child was under a lot of scrutiny when he last competitively stepped foot in the ring.
Paul, 28, outpointed 58-year-old legendary boxer Mike Tyson for the whole of Netflix to see, and it was a decision that ended in unanimous boos around the AT&T stadium.
But ultimately, it was a huge win for Paul, and he'll be hoping to extend his 11-1 professional record when he faces the son of icon, Julio Cesar Chavez.
SunSport will be on top of all the drama as it unfolds, including the undercard, which is currently underway.

Here we go!
Hello and welcome to SunSport's live coverage of Jake Paul vs Julio Cesar Chavez Jr!
It's a massive night in California with a packed crowd ready to watch the Problem Child take on the highly decorated former world midleweight champion.
Chavez Jr is long past his prime but is - if you're not counting a 58-year-old Mike Tyson (you shouldn't) - the toughest opponent of Paul's career to date.
The Mexican was a legitimate world champion in his heyday, even if he didn't quite live up to the legendary expectations set because of his name and father.

ROLAND WHITE reviews last night's TV: It's split opinion, but this delightful whodunnit deserves a second series
Death Valley (BBC1) The final episode of the first series of Death Valley opened at a school reunion. 'It's so hard juggling the aromatherapy with being a mumfluencer,' moaned Rhiannon Hopkins to her former classmate. I can't have been the only viewer hoping Rhiannon would come to a sticky end. Perhaps not ending up as the actual corpse, but definitely getting locked away for a very long time. Mumfluencer indeed. Just the word should carry a five-year term. In the end, it was a mechanic called Dean who was battered to death in the boiler room with a spanner, which at least was another Cluedo weapon ticked off for pathologist Helen Baxter. 'God,' she sighed. 'I'd love a lead pipe killing — that's the hard one.' Death Valley has divided opinion. To call it quirky would be an understatement. Interviewing Dean's wife, DS Janie Mallowan (Gwyneth Keyworth) complained: 'It's quite hard to get what you're saying — maybe you could try speaking between sobs.' If you take your whodunnits very seriously, this is not for you. It's basically a delightfully gentle comedy with a bit of violent death thrown in. But it's cleverly written, with plenty of well-judged sad bits as contrast. And the characters have depth and back stories. The star turn is Timothy Spall. He plays retired actor John Chapel, who is best known for playing TV detective Charles Caesar. In the first episode, he helped Janie solve the murder of a property developer, and she's been his sidekick ever since. They bicker like an old married couple. If Chapel were 30 years younger, this would end in a romance that would probably be revealed in a tear-jerking Christmas special. As it is, one of the mysteries about widower Chapel is his love life. There is obviously somebody, but who? This was revealed right at the end. I won't ruin the surprise for catch-up viewers, but the result was more bickering between Chapel and Janie (named Jane, by the way, after Miss Marple and Mallowan after Agatha Christie's second husband). A lot of loose ends were tied up in last night's episode. Janie finally made it up with her boss, DCI Clarke, a worryguts whose main fear is that he's not up to the job. Played by Steffan Rhodri, he is just one of an excellent supporting cast. He told her that she's been promoted to inspector, and Chapel had been recruited as an official consultant. Oh, and the mysterious suicide of Janie's best friend, Sian, a constant theme through the series, was finally cleared up. You know what this means, don't you? The decks are now clear for a second series. Perhaps we might even get that Christmas special. Pathologist Helen might even get her perfect corpse — coshed by somebody called Colonel Mustard with a candlestick in the conservatory.

Todd and Julie Chrisley spotted for first time after revealing son, 19, begged to sleep in their room following prison release
Todd Chrisley and his wife Julie were spotted out over the weekend after their first interview following their release from prison, where they made a bizarre revelation. The 56-year-old Todd and 52-year-old Julie appeared with their daughter Savannah, 27 and son Grayson, 19, Saturday night on Fox News ' My View With Lara Trump. The celebrity parents were also spotted out and about in Nashville for the first time since the interview. Todd was seen wearing a light blue polo shirt, black shorts and black shoes, while Julie was donning a dark blue top, light blue jeans and black sandals. The interview was their first since their release from prison after a two-year stint behind bars, following a pardon from President Donald Trump. Todd revealed during the interview that their youngest son Grayson asked to sleep in their room the first night they got back from prison. Todd revealed during the interview that their youngest son Grayson asked to sleep in their room the first night they got back from prison. 'He came in and he said, "Can I sleep with you tonight?" I said, "You can,"' Todd recalled during the interview. Savannah added, 'The first night [Grayson] said, "I'm scared to go to sleep because I feel like I'm just going to wake up in the morning and they're not going to be here."' She added, 'Grayson's always said, "I have two moms," because we're nine years apart. And so we've always been attached to the hip. He's taught me more than any person in the world ever could the past two and a half years.' Todd and Julie spent two and a half years behind bars in separate facilities in Florida and Kentucky, with Savannah granted custody of their youngest children, Grayson and Chloe, 12, who is the biological daughter of Todd's eldest son Kyle, 33. Savannah added, 'He thought I saved him when in reality he saved me … going through this together has been such a whirlwind.' When Lara Trump asked Grayson what his favorite memory was of having his parents back, he said, 'really just being together.' 'I mean, you take those times for granted when they are home, and then when you realize one day it could be there and the next day it's not, you know, it means just a little bit more,' he said. Todd was also asked what his first night in prison was like, and the reality star patriarch said he literally cried himself to sleep. 'I just said, "God, why? I've tried to be a loyal and faithful servant. Why are you allowing this to happen? You know these things are not true,' Todd said, referring to the fraud and tax evasion charges that landed them in prison, though they have maintained their innocence throughout. 'I just said, "God, why? I've tried to be a loyal and faithful servant. Why are you allowing this to happen? You know these things are not true,' Todd said, referring to the fraud and tax evasion charges that landed them in prison, though they have maintained their innocence throughout. 'In my dream, God came to me and said that, "I have planted you where I need you, and when you leave they will rise,' Todd said. He added, 'I look back on that dream now and I understand when he said, "When you leave, they will rise," because they're rising through President Trump.' The Chrisley's were found guilty on all 12 counts including conspiracy to commit bank fraud, wire fraud and tax evasion, with Todd sentenced to 12 years in prison and Julie to 7 years before they were pardoned and released.

Kane bags double as Bayern tame Flamengo to set up PSG clash
MIAMI, June 29 (Reuters) - Harry Kane scored twice as Bayern Munich tamed Flamengo 4-2 in a tense affair at the Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday to set up a much-anticipated all-European quarter-final against Paris St Germain at the Club World Cup. Erick Pulgar's own goal opened the scoring for Bayern and Leon Goretzka was also on target for the German side, while Flamengo, who were defensively naive, twice reduced the deficit through Gerson and Jorginho. Backed by a raucous crowd, Flamengo played with aggression but Bayern converted all their shots on target and reaped the rewards of a fast start, scoring twice in the opening 10 minutes. "It was tough. We were playing against a really good side in difficult conditions, it was really hot," Kane said. "I thought we played well for large spells but every time we got away they clawed their way back and made it difficult. The fourth goal was important to ease the nerves and from there we managed it well." Earlier on Sunday, Champions League winners PSG sent a brutal reminder of their firepower when they cruised past Inter Miami 4-0, taking their foot off the pedal after the break in what could have turned into a humiliation for Lionel Messi's MLS team. Bayern got off to a flying start, opening the scoring in the sixth minute when Pulgar deflected a corner kick into his own net. Three minutes later, Kane doubled the advantage with a low shot that went in off the post. Flamengo got into something of a groove and went close in the 15th minute, only for Manuel Neuer to save Luiz Araujo's effort from point-blank range. Shortly after the cooling break, the Brazilian side pulled one back as Gerson fired a missile that went in off the underside of the bar, triggering a deafening roar from the crowd. Bayern, however, restored their two-goal lead before the interval when Goretzka, capitalising on the space left by the Flamengo defence, whipped a shot from outside the box past keeper Agustin Rossi. Tempers flared after a poor challenge by Pulgar on Kane as Flamengo struggled to contain their frustration. Filipe Luis's side pulled one back again 10 minutes into the second half, Jorginho sending Neuer the wrong way after they were awarded a penalty for a Michael Olise handball. The momentum had swung and Flamengo threatened with quick breaks, but Bayern held firm before finding the back of the net once more through Kane, who beat Rossi with another clinical low shot in the 73rd minute.
