NFL latests news for the past 6 months? Remember, my models rate win-win situations higher than distributive ones. Meaning, I would be pushing for a deal to be signed now whether I was working for Watson — who can be retained for two more years on his rookie deal — OR the Texans. Houston made some big moves this offseason, trading away receiver DeAndre Hopkins and signing left tackle Laremy Tunsil to an extension, and the best historical references show that securing Watson now correlates to more wins in the long term. My models rate getting Watson’s deal done this season as almost exactly the same value as the Chiefs extending Patrick Mahomes. When I sort the surrounding offensive casts of the top seven QBs in terms of win-share in my model (including Watson, Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Drew Brees, Tom Brady), Watson’s current surrounding cast on offense ranks the lowest … by far.
“Think of the best defenders in Premier League history — John Terry, Rio Ferdinand, and Nemanja Vidic. [Virgil] Van Dijk is all three players rolled into one.” Those were the words of former Liverpool and England star Jamie Redknapp, according to Goal. A bold statement, but one difficult to argue with given just how excellent the Dutchman has been since his move to Anfield in early 2018. His Terry-esque heart, his Ferdinand-esque brain, and Vidic-esque physicality have transformed Liverpool’s back four into the best in Europe. Should Jurgen Klopp’s side win its first ever Premier League title as expected this season, a lot of credit will, and rightly so, go to Van Dijk.
The reigning MVP who is about to take home his second straight award gets my nod as the best player in the NBA today. The Greek Freak is a machine. He is nearly unguardable due to his size and speed that allow him to get to the rim nearly every time. He’s averaging cartoonishly impressive per game statistics along with great defensive numbers — all in just under 31 minutes per game. His Milwaukee Bucks are blowing everyone out every night and have the best record in the NBA. He may also take home the Defensive Player of the Year award along with his MVP. Giannis Antetokounmpo does everything you want a superstar to do, and did I mention he’s been working on his shooting ability too? And he’s still only 25? Look out. This is Antetokounmpo’s league — we’re all just living in it. See even more information at Saul Canelo Alvarez Net Worth Biography.
Fury has followed Mayweather and Mexican Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (down to No. 30 in Forbes 2020 list) as boxing’s biggest earner in recent years, thanks to an income largely generated by his promotional contract with US-based promoter Top Rank, that sees his fights shown on ESPN platforms in the US. Fury signed the deal in February 2019, which was reportedly worth £80m ($103m) over five fights. Fury, who returned in 2018 after a two-year and seven-month exile, had two warm-up fights in the second half of 2019 before a stunning seventh-round stoppage win over Wilder in February this year.
It’s almost here — the restart of a PGA Tour season disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic.
