Jake Paul On Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. Fight
"Five years ago, I stepped into the ring for my pro debut after a single amateur fight, and every fight since has been a step towards becoming world champion.

Capitals Get Busy In Third Round, Bring In Chisholm & Draft Schafer
Mandatory Credit: Matt Blewett — imagn Images The Washington Capitals got to work in the third round of the 2025 NHL Draft, making some moves to shift down in the draft while bringing in another depth defenseman. Washington first traded its No. 93 pick to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for the No. 96 pick and a 2027 seventh-round selection. Advertisement Then, before making the 96th pick, the Capitals made another trade, acquiring defenseman Declan Chisholm and the 180th overall selection from the Minnesota Wild in exchange for defenseman Chase Priskie and the 123rd overall pick. Chisholm answers a key question for Washington, as he's a solid depth left-handed blueliner who can provide insurance and experience to the mix. He's a strong skater and good puck mover with good defensive instincts, and he has the speed and upside to continue developing in the right direction. The 25-year-old had 12 points in 66 games with the Wild last season, and given the team struggled to fill Martin Fehervary's void in the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs, they add another option that can go into the lineup and be a reliable option. Then, with the No. 96 pick, the Capitals picked German winger Maxim Schäfer. In 15 games with the Eisbären Juniors Berlin U20 team, he had 35 points. At 6-foot-4, he's a force to be reckoned with on the ice and is incredibly aggressive on the forecheck. He uses his size and speed to get to the high-danger areas and knows where to go to get open, too. Washington's next selection comes at No. 155.

Angel Reese releases ‘mebounds' merchandise with proceeds going toward cyber-bullying prevention
After filing to trademark the term 'mebounds,' Angel Reese has released a merchandise collection featuring the word used to mock her game on the court through her personal website, with a portion of proceeds going to 'support cyber bully prevention through The Angel C. Reese Foundation.' Reese has also followed up the 'mebounds' trademark filing with one for the term 'Reesebounds.' The 'mebounds' collection includes a variety of T-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, and slides ranging from $28-$75 in both youth and adult sizes. One shirt design is the text of the trademark filing. 'Whoever came up with the 'mebounds' thing, y'all ate that up because 'mebounds,' rebounds, 'crebounds' … anything that comes off that board, it's mine,' Reese said in a TikTok video around the time of the trademark filing. 'And a brand? That's six figures right there.' Advertisement 'Mebounds' began as a mocking reference to Reese's penchant for getting the rebounds from her own misses. Reese is averaging 12.3 rebounds and 11.7 points per game on 39.1 percent shooting through 15 games for the Chicago Sky so far this season. The 'mebounds' trademark application was filed on June 14 and is awaiting examination. On June 20, Reese filed an application to trademark 'Reesebounds,' which is also still pending examination. Both trademarks are intended for use on T-shirts, sweatshirts, and hats. This article originally appeared in The Athletic.
