Palm Beach’s amfAR Gala was rife with the smell of MAGA makeup this weekend, by which I mean prominent newish couple Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson graced the event with their presence. Per “Page Six,” Donald Trump’s eldest son and his socialite girlfriend stopped by the gala for some photos on Saturday, rubbing shoulders with New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft and the evening’s honoree, Martha Stewart. Anderson wore a silver sequined minidress, while Don Jr. sported his signature greased-back mop and loafers sans socks. Throughout the evening, Anderson could not seem to stop smiling. I guess she’s excited to be trotted out in public more often?

Vanessa isn’t the only ex of Don Jr.’s in the news. Let’s not forget that his ex-fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle, has been lurking in the corners of MAGA-adjacent events and Super Bowl parties over the past couple of months. The couple ended their six-year relationship last year, and Guilfoyle was promptly shipped thousands of miles away as the Trump-appointed ambassador to Greece.

Two of them were in boxing. The first came at the hands of the unheralded Kenneth McNeil in 2015 and the second was a sixth-round stoppage loss to Jake Paul last year.

Between his two boxing knockouts, there was also a TKO loss to Geoff ‘Handz of Steel’ Neal at UFC 245 in December 2019.

Early in the first round, Neal caught Perry with a huge head kick that sent Perry reeling backwards against the cage.

Neal pursued Perry like a man possessed and reigned down heavy kicks and punches to close the show.

While Perry admits he rarely feels punches until after his fights, Neal’s kick left a lasting impression.

“I mean, I guess the hardest I’ve ever been hit was probably Geoff Neal kicking me in the face,” he told talkSPORT.com.

“He then followed up with some more punches and kicks to the face.

“It was that kick. I remember that kick. When he kicked me everything went black and white and it was like a dream.

Gervonta “Tank” Davis is no stranger to high-stakes fights, but ahead of a potential rematch with Lamont Roach Jr., he has been warned to fix a crucial mistake that could cost him dearly. The undefeated boxing star has dominated the ring for years, but experts believe a flaw in his approach needs immediate attention if he hopes to maintain his reign.

Davis, known for his explosive power and lightning-fast reflexes, has been criticized for lapses in defensive strategy during his fights. While his aggressive style has helped him secure knockouts, analysts warn that Roach Jr. is a smarter, more tactical fighter than before. If Davis underestimates his opponent, it could spell trouble in the rematch.

Former champions and trainers have voiced their concerns, urging Davis to refine his defensive movements and endurance. “Tank is one of the best, but even the best have weaknesses,” said one boxing analyst. “If he doesn’t adjust, Roach Jr. could expose him.” This warning has sparked intense discussion among fans and insiders, raising questions about whether Davis will heed the advice.

As speculation grows, all eyes are on Davis and his training camp. Will he take the warning seriously and adapt his game plan, or will his confidence lead to unexpected challenges? With so much on the line, this rematch could be one of the most defining moments of his career.

Only time will tell if Davis makes the necessary changes, but one thing is certain—boxing fans are in for a thrilling showdown. The stakes have never been higher, and the world is watching to see if “Tank” can silence his critics once again.

 

After Gervonta “Tank” Davis walked away from his controversial majority draw against Lamont Roach Jr., questions about whether the Baltimore native is still at his best have erupted across the boxing world.

Now, as Davis prepares for an expected rematch later this year, one veteran voice in the sport is making headlines for calling out what he sees as a critical flaw in Tank’s current game – a flaw that could cost him again if it isn’t addressed.

TIGER WOODS was left red-faced after making history by becoming the first player to break a major golf rule he helped create.

The incident occurred as 15-time major winner Woods competed for Jupiter Links GC against TGL rivals Boston Common GC.

The battle at the SoFi Center in Florida saw Woods step up for an eight-foot putt during a critical moment.

However, the golf legend and fans were stunned as a loud buzzer went off.

Woods was yet to hit the ball before the noise was made.

Indeed, it was the sound from the course’s shot clock.Tiger Woods at a golf tournament.

Players have just 40 seconds to get their shot away.

And because Woods failed to make contact before the alarm sounded, it saw him become the first player in history to be pulled up on it.

Boston Common’s players celebrated as Woods appeared exasperated.

And his day got even worse when he was handed an automatic one-stroke penalty.

The irony is that Woods was one of the stars who had campaigned for the introduction of a shot clock to help speed up games.

His penalty meant he was unable to match Rory McIlroy’s birdie, handing Boston a 2-1 lead.

Afterwards, Woods opened up over the unfortunate incident.

He said: “Normally I slow my heart rate down before I pull the trigger.

“So dropping my heart rate down sometimes takes a littler bit longer than others.

“As I told these guys, it’s on me. I should have called time out as I built in my stance because of the time.

“But I was dropping my heart rate down like I normally would. It just took too long.”

Despite his error, Woods’ Jupiter Links team ended up winning the match in a 4-3 thriller.

Kevin Kisner bagged the victorious shot for Woods’ side, with Adam Scott unable to match it for Boston on the final hole.

 

Mike Tyson has reportedly spent a large chunk of his $US20 million fight purse from the Jake Paul bout on a $US13 million ($A20.6 million) mansion in Florida.

Tyson reportedly pocketed a $US20 million ($A31.8 million) for his 16-minute return to the ring against the social media performer, who according to Forbes made $US40 million as the “A” side.

While there’s been no confirmation from the former heavyweight champion, The Palm Beach Post reported the boxing legend bought the six-bedroom property which sits on a 2.7-acre plot in an exclusive gated community, off-market.

The world’s youngest heavyweight champion blew his entire $A580 million fortune according to a bankruptcy filling in 2003.

Forbes said that the former heavyweight champion’s total career earnings could be as high as $US685 million (over $A1 billion).

Shelly Finkel, Tyson’s former manager, once told The Sun: “He’s one of the few people who I’ve ever met who I really don’t believe that the money matters except for the moment to get him the satisfaction he wants.

“Whether it be clothing, buying a car for a girl. It’s not like, ‘Hey, I gotta be wealthy.’ It was just the satisfaction at that moment.

“I remember, he’d spend $100,000 in one visit. I saw cars he had that were over $1 million.”

One of Tyson’s infamous buys was a gift for his then wife, a solid gold bathtub, dubbed the most expensive in the world, paying over $US 2 million.

Mike also hired an animal trainer for $US 125,000-a-year to take care of his pet Siberian tigers, which cost $US 100,000 each.

He also employed an entourage of people, including bodyguards, chauffeurs, chefs, and gardeners, all of which put a strain on his finances

One of Tyson’s biggest career paydays saw him sign a $US 27 million ($A43m), eight-fight contract with HBO in 1987, which would be around $74 million ($A118m) in today’s money.

He then inked a long-term pay-per-view contract with Showtime in 1990 for a hefty $US 120 million, or around $US 288 million ($A460m) in today’s money.

In a recent interview with Jimmy Kimmel, the boxing legend said: “Five million can be gone in a few days. That’s right. I’m a big spender. Not now, but when I was young.”

The former boxer, 58, picked himself up from his drowning debts and went on to star in movies before moving into the lucrative cannabis business.

He credits his stable financial position now to his wife Lakiha Spicer.
