In the past week or so, we've seen a teleprompter operator accused of betting with edges, an NFL exec accused of leaking draft info, and the president himself looking to charge $$ for inside information. Makes sitting at a blackjack table and counting cards seem awful quaint, no?

Oh yes. The running diary #boxing column has made the leap to the new site. @tgfgoodfight12.bsky.social is the place to read all about the fireworks, thunderstorms, open scoring, and ludicrous stoppages at a gathering (of sorts) of fight writers and fans: thegoodfight12.substack.com/p/abdullah-m...

Last Thursday, Terence Crawford accepted his Fighter of the Year award in Manhattan on the same day Floyd Mayweather had an exhibition fight KO'd by a New York judge. Every boxing retirement is different, as these two all-time greats illuminate: thegoodfight12.substack.com/p/buds-and-f...

To Terence Crawford, I say, “See ya,” and to Floyd Mayweather Jr., I say, “Wouldn’t want to be ya”

From the Caesars and MGM takeovers, to the new Vanderpump Hotel, to getting an NBA team, there's always plenty going on in Las Vegas, so Vital Vegas' Scott Roeben joins me on LOW ROLLERS this week to share his insights on all of it — plus video poker as therapy and the Roeben Rules of tipping.

Other than all the money it cost everyday Americans and will continue to cost everyday Americans, and the human lives that it ended, and the fact that absolutely nothing positive came out of it for the U.S., pretty good war if ya ask me. Anyone who says otherwise ain't a patriot.

These words could only have been spoken by one man: “I remember, I’m start boxing, I have a dream. I have a dream, stay very close, legends like Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, Leonard. And today, I stay with these guys. I’m so happy. I’m honor. This legacy. It’s huge.”

On the Daniel Cormier-Eric Trump thing: When you have a he-said-she-said situation and one of the parties is a member of the Trump family, don't overthink it. The person with the surname Trump is absolutely full of shit.

For the second straight year, Jessica Welman joins the LOW ROLLERS podcast during SBC Americas Summit week — but from a different perspective this time. We discuss her move from media to advocacy and the state of RG/PG and gaming expansion. Plus, any WSOP FOMO?

My first written piece for new Substack site The Good Fight (subscribe and support independent boxing journalism!) tells the tale of Russ Anber, who this weekend will become the first Canadian trainer inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame: thegoodfight12.substack.com/p/making-the...

Making the cut: Russ Anber, boxing’s utility man, heads to Canastota

Russ Anber waited a year longer than he wanted for the call from the Hall, but as it turned out, the class of 2026 already had his name all over it

Yep. We're doing this again. The first new episode of Ring Theory in almost 10 years is here. Warning: not safe for listening at work or around small children or within 10,000 miles of anyone who's easily offended. thegoodfight12.substack.com/p/ring-theor...

Ring Theory 2.0: Oh, jeez, it’s the OGs

Eric Raskin and Bill Dettloff are back to win hearts and minds – or at least make a comeback that results in (fingers crossed!) more than one episode

You should ask yourself why all of the people who are screeching about election fraud on social media are always unwilling to repeat these claims under oath. Let me help you: it’s because they know they’re full of shit. The entire purpose is to keep people angry.
