Sebastian Fundora vs. Tim Tszyu
Walkout: Let's lock in! Tim Tszyu is walking out to 'Desperado' and donning a glittering black robe. Let's just hope he avoids all the step in, Muay Thai-like elbows this fight.
Now Sebastian Fundora is walking out. It's always shocking to see the praying mantis that is 'The Towering Inferno' walk out and think he's a 155'er.
Prefight: Jimmy Lennon Jr. is now announcing the two fighters. Voice smooth as silk, as usual. This fight was wild to take on 12 days notice. Going to be interesting to see how Tszyu deals with the length of Fundora. Tszyu gets his announcement and now it's Fundora's turn. Fundora is the tallest ever super welterweight champion. Fair amount of pop from the crowd for Fundora as well.
Let's get it in.
Round 1: Fundora is working the jab and Tszyu swinging for the fences already. Tszyu has a fair read on the distance early. Fundora is falling short with the jabs. Tszyu is also looking to dip on the outside for the right hand up the middle against the southpaw Fundora. BIG KNOCKDOWN FROM FUNDORA! Catches Tszyu trying to shift to the outside with a big left cross and Tszyu beats the count. Fundora is not pressing the pace too much and Tszyu lands a good left over the top. Tszyu doesn't look to terrified after the flash knockdown.
MMA Fighting scores this round 10-8 Fundora (10-8 Fundora)
Round 2: Fundora is out this round pressing with the jab and cross. Tszyu is trying to fight off the back foot which will be disaster for him. Now Fundora is fine pot shooting Tszyu. He catches Tszyu around the guard and stuns him again. Tszyu is covering up. Fundora backs off and Tszyu lands a big left that snaps Fundora's head to the side. Tszyu is struggling to get to the inside of Fundora, who is using his jab well for once. Tszyu doesn't have the head movement to deal with Fundora's length, especially after being buzzed twice in two rounds.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Fundora (20-17 Fundora)
Round 3: Fundora stepping on the lead foot of Tszyu, savvy stuff. Tszyu lands a right from underneath and shoves Fundora. He's clearly stronger, more of that. Tszyu literally punches Fundora's right thigh. Now Tszyu is doing a good job covering the jab with his lead hand. He's having more success getting in and landing to the body (and thigh, lol). Tszyu leaned to his left too much and Fundora lands another left hand that gets a pop from the crowd. Tszyu has stopped worrying about the lead hand battle and Fundora is marching forward again. Tszyu and his coaches have some good ideas but it looks like he lacks the discipline to keep the plan in place. Close round.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Fundora (30-26 Fundora)
Round 4: Tszyu is back to the high guard that he's had no success with. Tszyu is on auto pilot now. Tszyu goes cross to the body, left hook high and Fundora comes over the top, punishing Tszyu for having audacity. Tszyu is stuck against the ropes again this round. Tszyu is getting pot-shotted again. Tszyu is now winging in the right, Fundora landing 3 punches to Tszyu's one. Fundora got a bit lazy and Tszyu lands another big right over the top. He can't seem to hurt Fundora. Now Tszyu has Fundora's nose open again.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Fundora (40-35 Fundora)
Round 5: Much more success for Tszyu early. Fundora is not jabbing as much and Tszyu is coming back with big shots high and to the body. 2⁄3 through the round and Fundora decides to jab again. Tszyu decides to try to fight the lead hand again and find the outside angle. Tszyu threw a dangerous leaping left hook that he got away with. Fundora is ending the round strong, putting Tszyu in the corner. Tszyu finally banks a round.
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Tszyu (58-45 Fundora)
Round 6: Fundora comes out and commands the center of the ring. Tszyu is setting up his left high by throwing to the body first. Fundora is now on the back foot, trying to land volume on Tszyu. Tszyu is fighting much less chaotic. It's serving him well. He just can't get too complacent. A good right hand from Fundora draws a reaction from the crowd. Tszyu slips to the outside and lands a nice right up the pop. Despite Fundora's volume, this is another Tszyu round. Is he mounting a comeback?
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Tszyu (67-55 Fundora)
Round 7: Tim Tszyu has yet to go back to hand fighting. Fundora opens the round landing a bit heavier. He's trying to close out Tszyu's comeback. Fundora is reaching bad on the body shots from Tszyu and Tszyu is trying to crack that chin. Every time Tszyu gets his high guard back up, Fundora begins to march him back to the ropes. The two get in a phone booth and Tszyu lands a massive right. They are now fighting in the pocket and it's all action! A big left from Tszyu. Fundora is starting to clinch up! Tszyu just had his best round! He's playing a dangerous game, yet an entertaining one!
MMA Fighting scores the round 10-9 Tszyu (76-65 Fundora)
They just called the fight in the corner! My mind is blown! Something must have happened. This is insane, Tszyu was on an incredible comeback. The announcers are saying he was out on his feet. What a round, this has been a letdown of a finish for two great fighters.
Official decision: Sebastian Fundora defeats Tim Tszyu via corner's stoppage in round seven.
Postfight: Tszyu is up first. 'He's one tough motherf*****.' He seems in good spirits and calls Fundora the best fighter in the division. Tim Tszyu is obviously upset but he's taking the loss in stride.
Now over to Fundora. Fundora is crediting his size for his win and wants to start 'bullying these guys.' He continues, 'I looked at myself in the mirror and said, 'Oh wow, I have reach.' Fundora is dry and he throws it out to Pacquiao and gets the crowd ready for Pac-man.

Ryan McMahon off to fast start with Yankees: `First impressions are usually pretty big'
NEW YORK (AP) — Two games into his New York Yankees career, Ryan McMahon has fans talking. And in this case, that's a positive. 'First impressions are usually pretty big,' he said Sunday after sparking a comeback with a tying, two-run double and some dazzling defense in a 4-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies that stopped a three-game losing streak. Acquired on Friday from Colorado, the 2024 All-Star went 1 for 3 and made a nifty backhand stop in his pinstriped debut Saturday, a 9-4 defeat. After the Phillies went ahead 2-0 Sunday against Carlos Rodón on second-inning homers by Nick Castellanos and rookie Otto Kemp, McMahon grounded a Zack Wheeler curveball into the right-field corner in the bottom half. 'He looks great so far. Hopefully he continues it," Yankees closer Devin Williams said. "I've obviously played against him in the past and he was a good player and I'm happy to have him here.' McMahon also singled and was hit by a pitch. He's reached base five times in two games with the Yankees. His glove work has been even more impressive. McMahon easily fielded J.T. Realmuto's 104.3 mph grounder in the second, jumped to grab Bryce Harper's looper leading off the fourth, then ranged to his glove side for a fifth-inning grounder with two out, slid and spun and then threw out speedy Trea Turner at first. 'Three big plays that stood out to me,' Rodón said. 'It's a whirlwind for a guy that gets traded and has to figure things out. So it's a pleasure to have him.' McMahon made 129 errors over six minor league seasons. He credited his defense to former Rockies teammates Nolan Arenado, Trevor Story and DJ LeMahieu, who have combined for 13 All-Star selections and 14 Gold Gloves. 'When you have those three guys and you're 20 years old and in your first big league camp, you're going to learn a lot if you just shut up and watch and pay attention,' McMahon said. McMahon arrived in the Bronx on Friday night following his trade from the Rockies, the team that drafted him in 2013. He took only one suitcase of clothing and his gear, and is staying in a hotel through the homestand. His wife Natalie and 1 1/2-year-old daughter Austyn Brooke remained behind. 'We'll figure that out, man,' he said. 'My wife, she's a rock star. She's awesome. She'll let me get settled a little bit and then they'll probably come out next homestand.' Yankees players, led by captain Aaron Judge, Gerrit Cole and Giancarlo Stanton, have been working at getting to know McMahon. 'Real easy to be around. I kind of sat with him a little bit today in the locker room, just kind of shooting it a little with him and he feels, to me, he feels comfortable,' said manager Aaron Boone, a third baseman obtained by the Yankees from Cincinnati at the 2003 trade deadline. 'It's allowing them space, allowing them to be themselves but also trying to really get to know them a little bit and making them immediately feel part of it,' Boone said. Austin Wells hit a go-ahead sacrifice fly and Trent Grisham an RBI single against Wheeler (9-4), who tied his career high with three hit batters — including two in a row ahead of the double by McMahon, who himself was hit by a pitch in the sixth. A smile on his face, McMahon left the clubhouse to address some of the logistics of the trade. 'I've got a lot of calls to make today, that's for sure,' he said. ___ AP MLB:

Kitayama captures PGA 3M Open title with big birdie weekend
Kurt Kitayama birdied six of the first eight holes then hung on down the stretch to win the 3M Open on Sunday for his second career US PGA Tour title. With his older brother Daniel serving as his caddie, the 32-year-old American fired a six-under-par 65 to finish 72 holes on 23-under-par 261 at TPC Twin Cities in Blaine, Minnesota. That was good enough for a one-stroke victory over countryman Sam Stevens, who had five back-nine birdies to keep the pressure on Kitayama to the finish. "I feel like the game has been trending and for it to finally pay off now has been awesome," said Kitayama, who was one off the 72-hole tournament record set by Lee Hodges in 2023. Kitayama, who fired a career-low 60 on Saturday after fighting to make the cut on Friday, sank 20 birdies in the final two rounds -- the most by any PGA Tour winner since 2003. "On Friday I was like finding my swing and grinding to make the cut," Kitayama said. "Went to the range to find something and obviously found something on Saturday and it continued today with that unbelievable start that I had. Just kind of went from there." Kitayama also won in 2023 at Bay Hill but this time was even better with his brother as bagman. "It's very special. It has been awesome having him on the bag," Kitayama said. Kitayama jumped from 110th to 53rd in the season points chase ahead of next week's regular-season finale at Greensboro, ensuring his spot among the top 70 in points who advance to next month's FedEx Cup playoffs. Kitayama's stunning start put him on 23-under with a three-stroke lead at the turn. He birdied first on a putt from just inside six feet, the second on a tap-in after his approach landed inches from the hole and the third on a 22-foot putt. A tap-in birdie at the fifth, a 10-footer for birdie at six and a four-foot birdie putt completed the early surge. Kitayama found the deep left rough at 11 and made bogey, but answered with a six-foot birdie putt on 12 and restored his three-shot lead with a tap-in birdie at 14 after dropping his approach two feet from the hole. Stevens reeled off three birdies in a row to reach 22-under with a birdie putt from just inside five feet at the 16th and Kitayama's three-putt bogey at the par-three 17th sent the drama to the par-five 18th. Stevens found the rough on his first three shots but salvaged par to stay one back. Kitayama landed his second shot in a greenside bunker 60 feet from the hole but blasted out to 17 feet and two-putted for par and the victory. js/rcw

49ers agree to sign CB Eli Apple
The 49ers are adding an experienced veteran to their defense. Cornerback Eli Apple has agreed to a one-year deal with San Francisco, according to agency Universal Sports and Entertainment Management. Apple, 29, signed with the Chargers' practice squad last October and was promoted to the team's active roster last November. He then missed time with a hamstring injury, leading him to appear in just four games in 2024. In 2023, Apple played 10 games with four starts for the Dolphins, recording an interception and nine passes defensed. A Giants first-round pick in 2016, Apple has played 102 career games with 82 starts for the Giants, Saints, Panthers, Bengals, Dolphins, and the Chargers. He's recorded six career interceptions with 61 passes defensed.
