No one likes to lose, but in the SEC it’s not that harmful to take a loss given how tough the conference is. But there are still a few games where a loss is not only bad, but catastrophic — especially when you’re living on the edge.

Arkansas proved how devastating it can be when you don’t take care of business.

The Razorbacks had really been picking up steam recently, with quality victories against teams like Kentucky and Missouri. It had gone from a team teetering in First Four territory to moving into a No. 10 seed in the latest edition of USA TODAY Sports’ Bracketology. But now, John Calipari’s squad looks headed back into ‘last four teams in’ territory thanks to an inexcusable loss to SEC-worst South Carolina.

Losing to the Gamecocks, who entered the day with only one conference win, wasn’t going to look good. But it’s how Arkansas lost that makes it even worse.

It was almost like there was a lid on the basket for Arkansas. It couldn’t score at all. It took more than 17 minutes to score 10 points and trailed 32-14 at halftime. By the time Arkansas scored 20 points, there was 12 minutes left and it was down by 27 points. It trailed by 35 points at one point. The Razorbacks were able to score 33 more points the rest of the way to make it seem like it wasn’t a total disaster, but it still was a 19-point loss to the Gamecocks.

Thanks to a day where it shot 28.8% from the field and 13.6% from 3-point land, Arkansas now makes a return to the bubble. Saturday was a big resume hit; the Razorbacks have a losing record in both Quad 1 and Quad 2 games − a 6-12 combined mark.

In a time where every game is under a magnifying glass, the ‘gimme’ games need to be handled. If they end in losses, it could be the reason why a team doesn’t hear its name called on Selection Sunday − something the Hogs didn’t expect with Calipari at the helm. Arkansas caps the penultimate week of the regular season in bad fashion and leads the winners and losers of teams on the NCAA Tournament bubble.

Winners

Georgia

In the bubble game of the week, the Bulldogs not only came out victorious — they looked good doing so. Georgia controlled the host Longhorns for nearly the entire contest thanks to a few runs in the first half that made the deficit too big for Texas to overcome. The second half the Bulldogs were practically on cruise control with a lead that ballooned to 27 points at one point.

The win capped off what was arguably the best week for any team in the country. Georgia was really fading in the tournament picture but turned it around with a wild victory over Florida on Tuesday for a much-needed Quad 1 victory. That win catapulted it from out of the projected field entirely to the ‘first four out.’ The Bulldogs then picked up a second Quad 1 win with the defeat of the Longhorns, continuing their move up the seed line. They made the most of their final two Quad 1 opportunities in the regular season and are winning the shoving match with their fellow SEC bubble teams.

North Carolina

While teams like Arkansas have clouds over their neighborhoods, the Tar Heels are enjoying their stroll around town with the skies shining Carolina blue. North Carolina didn’t have much trouble against ACC-worst Miami, beating the Hurricanes by 19 points for its fifth straight win.

Beating the Hurricanes is not impressive. In fact, none of the past five wins were against anybody good and none helped improve the lowly 1-10 Quad 1 record North Carolina owns. But the Tar Heels are doing the only thing they can do with an easy stretch of opponents: win and watch the chaos around them commence. Bubble teams are suffering some bad losses, but none are happening in Chapel Hill. That’s helping North Carolina inch closer toward the projected field. The game against Duke next week is one that can really determine North Carolina’s fate, but kudos to the Tar Heels for steadying the ship late in the season.

Xavier

When opportunity arises, it’s best to make the most of it. And, oh, did Xavier make a big-time statement on Saturday. The Cintas Center was rocking as the Musketeers pulled off a dominant run late in the second half against the Big East’s second-place team, Creighton, winning their first straight, 83-59. Playing against one of the most effective offenses in the country, it was Xavier that was really scoring at will.

Like North Carolina, Xavier has stayed in the tournament picture thanks to wins against inferior opponents. But Saturday was the first against a tournament contender since it first lost to the Bluejays more than a month ago. The Musketeers needed to prove they could beat quality team. Did they ever, scoring a 22-point victory. Unfortunately it wasn’t a Quad 1 game, something Xavier needs with just a 1-8 record in such instances, but it was certainly the most impressive outcome it could have hoped for. The selection committee won’t be able to ignore this win. Sean Miller’s team inches closer toward cracking the projected field.

Indiana

The climb of the Hoosiers continues. Indiana won its third straight game Saturday, beating Washington on the road with relative ease. An Oumar Ballo layup three minutes into the game gave Indiana a lead it never surrendered. It made nearly half of its shot attempts in the victory.

It’s been an impressive rise for Indiana, which didn’t look like a tournament team two weeks ago but has built the momentum off the win over in-state rival Purdue since then. The win over the Huskies was a Quad 2 victory and not all that impressive given they’re at the bottom of the Big Ten standings, but thanks to some blunders from teams in the projected field, Indiana is inching closer toward getting a spot in the First Four, something that sounded ludicrous weeks ago.

Losers

Oklahoma

Back and forth the Sooners go, as Oklahoma now likely finds itself out of the projected field once again after another defeat. In a very winnable game against Mississippi, the Sooners were down by nine points with eight minutes left when freshman guard Dayton Forsythe shot his team back into the game. With one minute left, Oklahoma had a two-point lead. But the defense couldn’t keep the lead, allowing Mississippi’s Sean Pedulla to make a go-ahead 3-pointer with 19 seconds left that wound up being the game-winning shot.

The win fell right through Oklahoma’s hands and not only is it a second straight loss, it’s now seven defeats in the last eight outings, effectively cancelling out the win over Mississippi State. The Sooners are now 4-12 in the SEC − third worst − and have a 5-10 Quad 1 record. They will likely be outside of the projected field next week. Wins in the last two regular-season games may be a necessity.

Texas

The SEC is proving to be a challenge for the newcomers. Texas saw its tournament chances fade with another loss. The Longhorns had home-court advantage against Georgia but didn’t show much fight in what turned out to be a crushing 16-point loss.

Texas’ slide down the bracket will continue with its third straight loss. It’s been a nightmare in Austin. Texas was headed into a very winnable stretch with South Carolina, Arkansas and Georgia in consecutive matchups. But it dropped all of the games and has six losses in the last seven contests. The Longhorns entered the stretch with a 3-1 Quad 2 record; they’re now 3-4 in those contests, which in no way helps with a 4-9 Quad 1 mark. Things need to start clicking fast if Texas wants to remain in the field.

Nebraska

The struggles in Lincoln continue with Nebraska suffering its third consecutive loss, another defeat at the hands of a team nowhere close to playing in the NCAA Tournament. Against a sneaky Minnesota team, the Cornhuskers trailed by as much as 19 points in the second half before storming back to make it a ballgame in the final minutes. They took a one-point lead with nine seconds left and looked like they’d avoid disaster. Until Minnesota’s Brennan Rigsby drilled a 3-point bucket with four seconds to go to stun the home crowd.

Minnesota isn’t a horrible team, but when a Quad 3 opponent comes into your building and you’re on the fringe of the NCAA Tournament, you better win. Nebraska ended up suffering its first Quad 3 loss that, from a resume standpoint, might be the worst loss a bubble team suffered on Saturday. Something like this can’t happen for a team with a NET ranking of No. 54. It’s been a free fall for a team that looked like it was trending toward being a single-digit seed in the bracket less than two weeks ago. One of those ‘first four out’ teams may be in place to take the Cornhuskers’ spot.

The most highly-anticipated NFL combine on-field workouts took place Saturday Lucas Oil Stadium when running backs, wide receivers and quarterbacks took the field to showcase their skills.

Cam Ward, Shedeur Sanders, Ashton Jeanty and Tetairoa McMillan didn’t work out in Indianapolis but there were other notable QBs, RBs and WRs who participated in Saturday’s combine drills.

There was plenty of attention on the field as NFL teams attempt to make assessments on some of the top skill position prospects in the 2025 NFL draft. Which players helped or their hurt draft stock?

Here are USA TODAY Sports’ winners and losers from Day 3 of the 2025 NFL Combine:

NFL STATS CENTRAL: The latest NFL scores, schedules, odds, stats and more.

NFL combine winners and losers

Winner: Virginia Tech running back Bhayshul Tuten

Tuten’s 40-yard dash time is the fourth fastest 40 by a running back since 2003.

Winner: North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton

The downhill runner ran a 4.46 40-yard dash. His production score was an 84, fourth among qualifying running backs, per Next Gen Stats.

Winner: Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden

The Texans product produced a total score of 82, the sixth best among wide receivers at the combine, per Next Gen Stats.

Winner: Missouri quarterback Brady Cook

Cook was cooking in the passing drills. The 6-2, 214-lb. QB was accurate during intermediate and deep passing drills. The Missouri product outperformed Jaxson Dart and Will Howard, who are both projected to be drafted ahead of him.

Loser: Arizona State running back Cam Skattebo

The bulldozing running back skipped most of the drills at the NFL combine. His most notable absence was in the 40-yard dash. NFL Network’s Stacy Dales reported on the broadcast that Skattebo is dealing with a left hamstring injury that is considered to be a ‘low-grade’ issue.  

Skattebo is considered a mid-round pick in many mock drafts, but scouts have concerns about his speed.

Loser: Texas wide receiver Isaiah Bond

Bond raised eyebrows when he told reporters he planned to break the NFL combine 40-yard dash record. The wideout claimed that he planned to run a 4.20 or a 4.1.

Unfortunately for the wide receiver, he didn’t back up his big talk.

Bond’s fastest time of the day was 4.39, and he posted the mark on his second 40 attempt. Bond’s bold prediction made his 4.39 somewhat underwhelming. The time was well behind former Texans WR and current Chiefs wideout Xavier Worthy’s combine all-time record of 4.21 seconds.

A 4.39 is a great time for a wide receiver, but Bond’s confident proclamation came back to bite him. His time won’t hurt his draft stock but Golden, his Texas teammate, had a better overall performance.

Loser: Hand measurements

Someone’s got some explaining to do.

Jalen Milroe’s hands were measured at 8 3/4 inches at the Senior Bowl just a few weeks ago. At the NFL combine, Milroe’s hands measured in at 9 3/8 inches, half an inch bigger than they were in Mobile, Alabama.

Barring an epic hand growth spurt, somebody doesn’t know how to accurately measure hands in Mobile or Indianapolis. Milroe will definitely prefer the latter of the two measurements.

LOS ANGELES — As Southern California closed in on a victory over rival UCLA, JuJu Watkins swatted a shot from Gabriela Jaquez and stared down the broadcast camera on the baseline.

It officially cemented what seemed inevitable: Los Angeles belongs to Watkins. Now, she and the Trojans are coming to overtake the rest of the country. 

The stakes were high on Saturday, and everyone inside a star-studded Pauley Pavilion knew it. The Big Ten regular-season championship was on the line, but so was the claim of being the top dog in the City of Angels. Implications so massive, siblings and Basketball Hall of Famers Cheryl and Reggie Miller were sitting courtside together, each representing their alma mater. 

There was so much buildup. Could the Bruins make adjustments and get revenge on the team across town en route to winning the conference title? Massive lines formed outside Pauley Pavilion as fans came to see the team the NCAA Tournament selection committee had tabbed as No. 1 in the top 16 reveal two days ago.

But Watkins took her first shot – a 3-pointer – and just like in their first meeting, it perfectly swished through the net. It was a sight that happened often, and the Trojans led from start to finish in an 80-67 victory.

Clinching the conference title in your rival’s arena? Four straight wins against them? With three massive billboards of you gracing the city?

Put the crown on Watkins’ head – and don’t mess with the signature bun.

“I would be remiss to say playing UCLA doesn’t motivate me extra,” she said.

UCLA is probably getting tired of seeing Watkins dissect it. She put up 30 points – 23 in the first half – with five assists, three rebounds and three blocks. In the past four meetings against the Bruins, she’s averaged 33.3 points, 8.5 rebounds. 4 blocks and 3.5 assists per game. 

Watkins’ performance was enough to claim the city. It was her teammates who showed the Trojans are capable of taking more.

The rest of the women’s college basketball world groaned when former Stanford forward Kiki Iriafen came back home to play for the Trojans in her final season. A dominant big to go along with a star guard in Watkins? Almost impossible to go against.

It took some time, but Iriafen has really come to play up to her firepower. After she sat out most of the first half due to foul trouble, she took the load off Watkins’ shoulders out of halftime with 15 points and six rebounds in the last 30 minutes. She commanded the post offensively and was knocking down jumpers, providing a lethal 1-2 punch. When she arrived at USC, she said a major priority was to provide relief for Watkins, helping Watkins in those moments where it felt like she was doing it all. But it’s more than just relief; it’s a two-headed monster. 

“I’m a very lucky coach to have these two. They’re the best duo in the country,” USC coach Lindsay Gottlieb said of her stars. “These two are unguardable. I think they’re both playing their best basketball now, which is scary.’

Watkins and Iriafen draw all the headlines, but you can’t forget about the supporting cast. Rayah Marshall, a vocal leading senior, played magnificent with her assignment on UCLA star center Lauren Betts, who finished with just 11 points. Freshman Kennedy Smith continued to play tough defense, and fellow first-year player Avery Howell hit back-to-back 3-point shots in the fourth quarter that were essentially the daggers. 

It was a complete effort that left Bruins head coach Cori Close hitting her fists on the press conference table, aware of how much the Trojans dominated. 

“Just really pissed off we didn’t show up and do our jobs,” she said. “Credit to USC. They were tougher.’

Many head coaches feel like Close after playing the Trojans. For as talented as it’s proven to be, USC hasn’t gotten the national respect it should have. Maybe it was the early loss to Notre Dame, or the tough defeat to Iowa a month ago. 

But that loss to the Hawkeyes awoke something in the Trojans. They all hated the taste of that defeat and didn’t want to experience it again. 

Since losing to Iowa, USC has won seven straight, including two wins against the Bruins and dominance over a highly-ranked team in Ohio State. 

The Trojans are hot at the right time and they’ll head into the Big Ten tournament as the No. 1 seed. With a successful trip to Indianapolis, they’ll be a No. 1 seed again when the NCAA Tournament bracket is revealed on March 16. From that point, it’s tough to argue anyone looks capable of taking them down.

Look around the country. UCLA just lost to them again, Notre Dame is in a little slump, South Carolina had a few slips and Connecticut already lost to USC. Besides Texas, everyone is taking some big punches and the Trojans just keep on landing them.

What’s made this season so intriguing in women’s college basketball is that the race for the national championship is wide open. A case for making it to Tampa for the Final Four could be made for several teams. But at this point, USC is making it known it’s ready to book its trip. 

“We’re not done. There’s a lot more,” Gottlieb said.

INDIANAPOLIS – So many eyes have been on trained on Cam Ward lately – those of NFL coaches, scouts, executives, fans and even his peers at the scouting combine this week.

But nobody was watching more closely Friday than Ward’s parents.

Most recently an All-American quarterback for the University of Miami (Fla.), Ward answered questions from a crush of media members surrounding his podium from all sides like a relentless pass rush. Off to one side, his mother, Patrice, and father, Calvin, paid rapt attention to their son’s answers.

And then the inevitable query came, the one wondering whether Ward was getting any blowback from NFL teams for sitting out the second half of last season’s Pop-Tarts Bowl after he’d just set a new Division I record for career touchdown passes (158) prior to halftime. (Miami eventually lost the game to Iowa State after coughing up the lead in the second half but, per a CBS report, never planned to play Ward beyond the second quarter.)

“No discussion at all,” Ward said of the controversy. “At the end of the day, it’s March. Bowl game’s in December. At some point, you’ve got to move on. I’ve never lived my life in the past, I don’t who would want to live their life in the past.

NFL STATS CENTRAL: The latest NFL scores, schedules, odds, stats and more.

“I’ll take it on the chin, you know, I’ll just keep pushing every day.”

That direct answer issued, Patrice Ward then turned to her husband and broke into a huge smile.

It was the best part of a news conference that Ward, who might be the No. 1 overall pick in April’s draft, essentially seemed to ace and should only further boost his stock for the quarterback-needy clubs atop the board.

“I’m willing to do anything, you know, that it takes to win a football game, whether it’s being a gunslinger all day or if I have to hand the ball off a couple times,” said Ward.

“At the end of the day, I know what type of player I am, (and) the teams should know what type of player they’re getting in me. And so, you know, I’m just going out there and trying to do my best for myself and my future teammates.”

Ward’s previous teammates – and there have been quite a few – seem to swear by him.

“Playing with Cam Ward was great. He came into the program, he changed it all, we all learned from him, and we just became one once he got into the facility,” Hurricanes receiver Jacolby George told USA TODAY Sports.

“His personality was a big part of how we played our season and how we did so good. I feel like he’s the reason why we had that winning season, and he’s the reason we stuck together.”

Said Miami tight end Elijah Arroyo of his former quarterback: “He’s the ultimate guy, ultimate teammate. Everybody sees what he does on the field and his confidence and everything. But the biggest thing I’d say is just the type of leader he is. From Day One, he brought the team together.

“He’s not afraid to hold people accountable. He wants to win, and he holds the team to a certain standard.”

Miami went 10-3 in 2024, Ward’s only season in Coral Gables, after he transferred in following two seasons at Washington State. Prior to that, his college career began inauspiciously in San Antonio at the University of the Incarnate Word, an FCS program – and the only school to offer him a scholarship after a high school career spent playing in a Wing-T offense.

“At the end of the day, you never know where football will take you,” said Ward.

Soon, it’s likely to take him to a struggling NFL operation. Ward has already met with the Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, Las Vegas Raiders and New York Jets – all teams slotted among the draft’s top seven picks and all in need of a franchise quarterback. He was clearly very familiar with all of those squads’ circumstances yet focused on the positive aspects of landing with any of them.

“It’s crazy to see how everything can change, so I’m not worried about no spotlight,” said Ward, who also played very well at Wazzu during the two years before the Pac-12 splintered.

“At the end of the day, the camera’s gonna find you if you’re a franchise quarterback somewhere. So I just put my head down and work every day.”

And the work paid off in college. Ward led the country with 39 touchdown passes in 2024 on his way to being named the ACC’s Player of the Year and winning the Davey O’Brien Award as college football’s best quarterback.

In addition to an alpha persona, he’s got a high-velocity, accurate arm and is more than capable of making things happen with his legs when required – though Ward says his best on-field trait is “winning from the pocket.”

“If you can’t win in the pocket,” he said, “you’ll never be successful.”

That seemed to be part of a pattern. Ward, who won’t work out during the combine’s quarterback drills Saturday, was quick to cite his intangibles as strengths – mindset, preparation, approach, work ethic, maximization of opportunities – rather than his estimable physical ability.

And he oozed confidence and maturity amid a no-frills demeanor, parrying criticism with thoughtful answers. After being asked about the Pop-Tarts Bowl, he engaged with the notion that he holds onto the ball too long at times.

“If you have time in the pocket, why would you not hold the ball and let your receivers get open?” Ward retorted – while crediting the ‘Canes line for giving him the luxury to extend plays.

“If you’re able to make plays out of structure, of course you’re going to hold the ball and try to make a play to get your receivers open.”

Yet it is Ward’s leadership that seems likely to serve him best as he moves forward into what’s likely to be – at least initially – a challenging situation. And he already seems to have a pretty good idea of how to initially relate with established professionals who may not be readily inclined to listen to a 22-year-old.

“Just holding people accountable,” Ward said of his approach, nothing he also wouldn’t be scolding teammates he’s just getting to know. “I’m not no rah-rah guy. At this point in your career in the NFL, you shouldn’t need somebody to motivate you every day, you have to be self-motivated. That’s the type of person I am, that’s the type of leader I am.

“Throughout college, I’ve grown to be more vocal. But at the end of the day, it’s all about leading by example,” he continued. “The quarterback will always be the highest-paid player on the team, and he has to showcase that skill every Sunday and every day throughout the facility to his teammates. I just think I’ll be one of those guys in the long run, and I’m looking forward to it.”

And, just maybe, Ward will make the fans and teammates at his next destination just as proud as his parents are.

Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Seth Jones said during the 4 Nations Face-Off break that he ‘would like to give myself a chance to win in my career.’

His wish was granted on Saturday when the 31st-place Blackhawks traded him to the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers.

The Panthers send goalie Spencer Knight to Chicago, plus a 2026 conditional first-round pick that could become a 2027 pick. The Blackhawks retain 26% of Jones’ remaining contract, which runs through 2029-30 at a cap hit of $9.5 million. Florida also gets a 2026 fourth-round pick.

Grading Saturday’s trade between the Blackhawks and Panthers:

Panthers trade grade: B

Jones is a right-shot defenseman, which is coveted around the league, and he averages more than 24 minutes a night. The Panthers lost defenseman Brandon Montour (a right shot) and Oliver Ekman-Larsson to free agency after their Cup win, so Jones fills some of that loss. His numbers haven’t popped recently but how much of that was being on a bad team? His combined -108 over four seasons in Chicago should improve on a better team. Jones’ long-term contract will help with defenseman Aaron Ekblad and Nate Schmidt in the final years of their contract. Knight was supposed to eventually replace Sergei Bobrovsky as the Panthers’ top goalie, but it didn’t look like it was going to happen.

Blackhawks trade grade: B

This story has updated with new information.

Gervonta “Tank’’ Davis didn’t lose the fight, but he lost his aura of invincibility.

His fight Saturday with heavy underdog Lamont Roach Jr. ended in a majority draw.

Davis (30-0-1) and Roach (25-1-2) traded big shots over the 12-round lightweight fight at New York’s Barclays Center and, incredibly enough, Roach ended the fight on his feet.

The judges scored it 115-113 (for Davis), 114-114 and 114-114.

“Hopefully we can get a rematch,’’ Davis said.

Before the fight, Davis said Roach would be the most skilled boxer he’s faced. It was no exaggeration, even though Davis did retain his WBA lightweight world title.

“For sure, Lamont is a great fighter. He’s got the skill, like I said before,’ Davis said. ‘He got punching power.’’ 

Both fighters were cautious early, but by midway through the fight, punches were flying and landing.

“I’m one of the best fighters in the world, and I showed that tonight,’’ Roach said, indicating he wants a rematch. “I want to run it back for sure.’’

Davis-Roach controversy

Is Davis’ hairdresser to blame for Roach having to settle for a majority draw Saturday night?

Or is referee Steve Willis to blame?

Early in the ninth round, Davis took a knee.

Willis may have been able to rule it a knockdown, which would have resulted in a one-point deduction for Davis on all three judges’ scorecards.

But Willis allowed Davis to go to his corner without penalty. The fighter later said the incident was all the result of getting his hair done.

“I just got my hair done two days ago,’’ Davis said during a post-fight interview in the ring, explaining that sweat led to grease getting into his eye.

The explanation apparently did not go over well with the crowd, which booed.

“Damn, why you all booing?’’ said Davis.

One of the judges scored the fight 115-113 in favor of Davis and two scored it 114-114. A one-point deduction presumably would have changed two judges’ scorecards to 114-113 in favor of Roach and the third judge 114-113 for Davis – creating a split-decision victory for Roach.

“If that’s a knockdown I win the fight,’’ Roach said. But in welcoming a rematch, he also said, “It is what it is.’’

Gary Antuanne Russell def. Jose Valenzuela by unanimous decision

Coming off the first loss of his career, Russell turned in a sterling performance.

He threw almost 1,000 punches and dominated Valenzuela with relentless pressure while winning the WBA super lightweight title.

The staggering numbers from Compu Box: During the 12-round fight, Russell threw 957 punches and landed 252, including 175 power punches.

The swelling and bruising on Valenzuela’s face attested to the power behind the punches.

The judges scored it 119-109, 119-109, 120-108 as Russell, 28, improved to 18-1.

In his previous fight, Russell lost to Alberto Puello by split decision – his first defeat. On Saturday, Puello defended his WBC super lightweight world title

Gervonta Davis vs. Lamont Roach predictions

CBS Sports: Pick Gervonta Davis

Brent Brookhouse writes: ‘While Roach is right that the amateur fights between the two do provide some direct knowledge of being in the ring with the champ, it also overlooks that, even as teenagers, Davis was the better fighter. That hasn’t changed as the years have ticked by. Davis is too smart, too disciplined and too powerful for Roach. The challenger may win an early round or two given Davis’ tendency to start slowly while he scouts out his opponent and figures out where the openings are to hurt them. But once Davis gets rolling, it will likely be a matter of time before he lands some big shots to end things.’

Yahoo Sports: Davis KO

Darshan Desai writes: ‘I expect Roach to have success in the early rounds at long range and occasionally catch Davis in exchanges due to his reach advantage, similar to the success Rolando Romero had against Davis. But Roach leaves himself open to counters, and I expect Davis to capitalize devastatingly in the second half of the fight.’

Boxing Scene: Jim Lampley picks Davis

David Greisman writes, according to Lampley: ‘Even if Tank did not possess his shocking punching power, he would be an elite lightweight on the basis of his crafty boxing, southpaw style advantage, clever footwork and visible killer instinct,” Lampley said. “But it is pure power that really sets him apart. He doesn’t just beat his opponents. He annihilates them in breathtaking, often scary fashion.’

Boxing News: Oscar De La Hoya picks Davis

The site reported that Oscar De La Hoya said: ‘I think Lamont Roach is a terrific fighter, he might be a little over his head with Gervonta Davis. Gervonta Davis is, I mean, to say the least. He’s a beast. He really is. He’s (Gervonta Davis) a tremendous fighter. He’s a dedicated fighter when it comes to training and fighting and making sure that he’s in optimal conditions when he steps inside that squared circle. It’s gonna be a tough night for Roach, but you can never count him out.”

Has Tank Davis ever been knocked down?

Officially, Davis never has been knocked down. But that’s a matter of debate. In 2020, during the first round of his fight against Leo Santa Cruz, Davis ended up on the canvas. The referee did not rule it a knockdown – but judge for yourself.

What is not in dispute is the Davis’ highlight-reel KO that ended the fight in the sixth round.

Who is Tank Davis’ girlfriend Vanessa Posso?

Vanessa Posso, Davis’ girlfriend, is the mother of two of the boxer’s three children. She is a model with her own jewelry line called “Rich Girlz.’

The NASCAR Cup Series hits the Lone Star State for the first road-course race of the 2025 season, when the Circuit of the Americas hosts the EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix on Sunday.

It will be a big change of pace for drivers after opening the season with superspeedway events at Daytona and Atlanta. In addition to going from fast, pack-style racing on the high-banked ovals to adjusting to multiple left and right turns on the Austin, Texas, road course, drivers will also have to adapt to a shorter, reconfigured circuit.

The section from Turn 7 through the Turn 11 hairpin was eliminated, reducing the course from 3.41 miles (same as the Formula One U.S. Grand Prix) to 2.4 miles. But the shorter circuit means the number of laps has increased, going from 68 to 95.

Qualifying will also be extremely important – unlike Daytona and Atlanta – as the past two race winners at COTA – William Byron in 2024 and Tyler Reddick in 2023 – started on the front row.

Who will be the first road warrior of 2025? Here’s all the information you need to get ready for Sunday’s EchoPark Automotive Grand Prix:
