Time is relentless, and not even Mike Tyson has escaped its effects. The “killer” instinct that made him famous remains alive, but his legs and arms no longer respond to the commands of his mind as they once did. The silence that took over the AT&T Arena in Arlington after Jake Paul’s victory reflected the frustration of the 80,000 people who were hoping to relive Tyson’s glory in 1988, when he was the “King of Boxing”. Many there wanted to believe that the legendary heavyweight champion was still capable of defying time. This is not the time to criticize Tyson for losing to a YouTuber. After all, he left the ring 19 years ago. Since then, he has faced enormous challenges outside of the sport: he weighed 160 kilos, dealt with the trauma of the tragic death of his daughter Exodus, battled addictions, lost a fortune and almost took his own life. Thanks to the support of his wife, Lakiha "Kiki" Spicer, Tyson found a new purpose. He reinvented himself, becoming a presenter, ...

The long-awaited boxing showdown between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson is set to take place this Friday night at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, in what is being touted as one of the biggest boxing events in recent memory.

The satirical news publication The Onion recently purchased Alex Jones' Infowars at a bankruptcy auction, marking the latest chapter in the prolonged legal battle between the far-right conspiracy theorist and the families of victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. This sale was mandated after numerous families of the 20 children and six educators lost in the tragedy successfully sued Jones and his company for defamation and emotional distress. Jones had falsely claimed on his show that the Newtown, Connecticut, shooting was a staged event orchestrated by "crisis actors" to push for stricter gun control measures. Here’s a closer look at how Jones’ misinformation empire found itself on the auction block. Jones, a Texas native with a bold broadcasting style, started his career shortly after high school in the early 1990s on a public-access channel. Early on, he promoted various conspiracy theories, claiming the U.S. government was part of a covert New W...

  WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday announced his selection of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee to serve as U.S. ambassador to Israel. Known for his strong support of Israel, Huckabee was chosen amid Trump’s commitment to aligning U.S. foreign policy with Israeli interests, especially in the context of Israel’s conflicts with Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon. “Mike has been a great public servant, governor and faith leader for many years,” Trump said in a statement. “He loves Israel and the Israeli people, and the people of Israel love him just as much. Mike will work tirelessly to bring peace to the Middle East!” Huckabee has led tour groups on paid visits to Israel for many years, regularly promoting those trips in conservative-leaning news outlets.
