Grant Smith is relishing the prospect of Chantelle Cameron continuing to improve after overseeing victory over France’s Elem Mekhaled in their first fight together. In 2023 Cameron stood alone at the top of the 140lbs division having become the first professional to defeat the iconic Katie Taylor. A lot has happened in the months since.

Brad Pauls would be open to a trilogy with Nathan Heaney after dethroning him as British middleweight champion. Pauls and Heaney combined for another fine domestic contest for the Lonsdale belt after their split-decision draw earlier in 2024. Pauls stopped Heaney in the 12th round of their rematch after dropping him in the fourth.

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. He began to play the rankings game and steadily climbed his way towards the top of the WBO super-featherweight rankings by collecting minor belts. It worked. In November 2021 he was elevated to the number-one position with the governing body but rather than taking his career to new heights, the tactic stunted his growth.

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.

One of these six spectacular cats may be your next pet

Crawford is in the sights of the 147lbs champion Jarron “Boots” Ennis, but the Nebraskan is looking elsewhere, and said that a fight with Saul “Canelo” Alvarez would mean more to his legacy, and his finances.

Robson Conceicao, perhaps Brazil’s most accomplished boxer ever, secured the 2016 Olympic gold medal in Rio and currently holds the WBC junior lightweight title. A controversial decision cast a shadow over his July 6 victory against O’Shaquie Foster, but it hasn’t dimmed his flame as he seeks to garner more respect for his homeland in boxing.

Although this refreshing drink went viral on TikTok last summer, it's been around a lot longer. Yes, you may have noticed, the drink is called lemonade, but it's made with limes. 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.
