After spending years playing politics, Archie Sharp has decided it is time to control his own destiny. Sharp, 25-0 (9 KOs), made himself one of British boxing’s most interesting prospects when he stopped Declan Geraghty back in 2019.

Brazilian lemonade is thought to have originated in Brazil by a street vendor. According to All Recipes, in Brazil, the drink is called limonada Suíça, which translates to Swiss lemonade. The beverage isn't Swiss, but the Swiss company, Nestlé, began selling condensed milk in Brazil in the 1900s, which could be where the drink got its name.
