Famed boxer Mike Tyson is reportedly “doing great” after suffering a medical scare during a flight from Miami to Los Angeles. Tyson, 57, was on board an American Airlines flight on Sunday when, according to his representatives, “he became nauseous and dizzy due to an ulcer flare-up 30 minutes before landing.”
Before departure, the flight was delayed by two hours due to the heat in Miami. Eyewitnesses say the flight asked if any medical professionals were on board when the incident occurred. The message was even displayed on the planes’ screens. After landing, paramedics boarded the flight to assist Tyson.
The flight attendant asked passengers to remain seated while paramedics treated an “important passenger.”
Tyson’s representatives say his medical condition did not affect the flight’s initial delay but rather because of an air conditioning issue. Passengers could not leave the plane for 25 minutes after landing as Tyson was treated for the problem.

Tko Holdings has merged the live event groups of its two combat sports leagues into the “Tko Live Events Strategy Team.”
Is the UFC about to follow WWE to a new streaming home? The latest move by the parent company of the two combat sports promotions leaves the door open for that particular question. Tko Holdings, which operates UFC and WWE, has decided to combine the live events groups of both into a single entity, which will be called the “Tko Live Events Strategy Team.” This will allow the company to more closely coordinate events from WWE and UFC, but it could also presage a move to Netflix for UFC events, as the world’s largest streamer recently struck a deal with WWE to air live episodes of “Raw” each week.
Key Details: WWE and UFC events will likely air on the same weekends thanks to the combination of the two live events groups.

This article contains spoilers for "Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga."
There's a delicate dance to pulling off a great cameo. If a random appearance overstays its welcome, it can feel — to borrow a wrestling term — like a cheap pop. But if executed correctly, a cameo can elevate a scene into the stratosphere. David Bowie serving as the judge of the walk-off in "Zoolander" is perfection, Matt Damon singing "Scotty Doesn't Know" in "Eurotrip" gave us an all-time great "Is that who I think it is?!" moment, and Charlton Heston delivering a gripping, out-of-place monologue in the middle of "Wayne's World 2" is nothing short of genius. But for every Mike Tyson in "The Hangover," there's Vanilla Ice in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze." Sometimes a cameo happens because an actor happens to be filming something on the same lot, as was the case with John Cena in "Barbie,...

Netflix, which for years had claimed that live sports did not factor into its business model, is now a major player in the field, recently snapping up Christmas NFL games. But before committing to established, conventional sports franchises like NFL football games and WWE Raw, the streamer tested the waters with stunt-y, made-for-tv sport events, starting with The Netflix Cup on Nov. 14, 2023.
According to Netflix’s second expansive viewership report released today, The Netflix Cup, a golf match featuring drivers and golfers from its docu series Formula 1: Drive to Survive and Full Swing, logged paltry 700,000 views in the second half of 2023.

There is a new undisputed and undefeated heavyweight champion of the world.
Ukraine’s Oleksandr Usyk joined Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Joe Frazier, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali and Floyd Patterson as the only undisputed champions by winning a split decision over Tyson Fury. The fight took place at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The previously undefeated Fury was convinced he won the fight. But the scorecards favored Usyk.
“I believe I won that fight,” Fury said to Dazn.“I believe he won a few of the rounds, but I won the majority of them. … We all put on a good fight, best we could do. And, you know, his country is at war, so people are siding with someone with a country at war. But make no mistake, I won that fight in my opinion, and I’ll be back.”
Fury and Usyk reportedly have a rematch clause in their contract.

Born to an African-American household, during the late ’80s, the world saw a drastic shift in Michael Jackson’s skin color, as it grew exponentially lighter. While many at the time accused the King of Pop of bleaching his skin in order to become white, this doesn’t seem to be the case, as his son Prince Jackson opened up about his father’s condition.
Reflecting on his father’s change in complexion in the latter stages of his life, Jackson recalled the singer’s battle with vitiligo, revealing that the pop star became insecure about his skin.

While Netflix is able to dip its toe into NFL broadcasting, the league gets another deep-pocketed partner.
Football fans, it is time to adjust your Christmas Day plans. On Wednesday, it was confirmed that Netflix will broadcast its first two NFL games this December as part of a three-year deal that will see the streamer air at least one game every season through 2026. In the broader scope of NFL broadcasting rights, this is a tiny segment of the overall schedule, but when the most popular domestic sports league partners with the traditionally sports-averse world’s largest streamer, it is almost certainly going to be a win-win situation for all involved.
Key Details: The deal allows Netflix to get into the NFL broadcasting game without committing billions of dollars to rights. Despite it being for just Christmas Day games, the NFL now has a broadcasting relationship with the world’s largest streamer.

Hugh Jackman has always had a reputation of being one of the nicest actors in Hollywood. So when he accidentally injured a stuntwoman while filming, he was understandably very upset. But the incident taught the actor a valuable lesson about working in Hollywood.

The movie wasn’t only one of his first major motion pictures, but it was also Jackman’s first time doing an action flick. Especially one on that scale.

Mike Tyson was once the baddest man on the planet as the heavyweight boxing champion.
But at age 57, and better known for his roles in such projects as The Hangover films and the Mike Tyson Mysteries TV series over the last 19 years, Tyson has raised concerns that he’s making a big mistake by returning to boxing.
Tyson is set to fight YouTube sensation Jake Paul on July 20. It’s not an exhibition – the match is commissioned by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulations as a professional fight.
Paul, age 27, is 9-1 in his career with six knockouts against a mix of celebrities and middling fighters, his only loss a split decision to Tommy Fury, brother of current heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
Despite Paul’s lack of top opponents, and Tyson’s 50-6 record with 44 knockouts, there is concern among the older boxer’s peers.

Part of it is nostalgia, but another part is wanting to see new wizard content, which mostly entails the above-mentioned points. Other anime series have come close to satisfying my very specific craving but they were not exactly what I was looking for.

The league has a Christmas Day doubleheader up for grabs this year, and opened bidding at the end of March.
Netflix is reportedly finally ready to take the plunge. The world’s largest streaming service has always seemed like a logical partner for the most popular sports league in the United States, but its stance against paying excessive sums of money to win live sports rights made it seem unlikely that it would ever actively pursue broadcasts of NFL games. However, a new report from Puck News indicates that Netflix has entered the chat regarding the NFL’s Christmas Day doubleheader for this coming season, and that it could potentially secure the rights to Christmas games for multiple years to come.

Tom Brady may be the greatest of all time, but his roast wasn’t. The thing is, it maybe could have been.
Netflix is all about eventizing these days, and probably the easiest way to do that — outside of sports rights — is live programming. Sunday’s “The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady,” had plenty of sports and too much live-ness for its own good.
The roast began at 8 p.m. Et/5 p.m. Pt, and proceeded to run, non-stop, for more than three hours. Never have commercials on Netflix been more needed. Or a video editor.
What was the point of doing this live? The danger, sure, but roasts are dangerous by their very nature. Live makes it an even thinner tightrope, we get that, but at what expense? The answer: enjoyment.

There have been so many flesh-eaters and brain-munchers on our screens, some of us are feeling zombie overload.

Tyson was perhaps as surprised as some fans when he found out Madonna wanted him for a music video. The song “Iconic” was meant to be a sort of inspirational track, urging its listeners to achieve their goals. Acts like Madonna and Mike Tyson are both known for their rags-to-riches story, so it’s easy to see why Tyson’s presence could fit the song’s narrative. But when Madonna first contacted Tyson, appearing on her music video was the last thing he thought would happen.

Dwayne Johnson has led a star-studded career in almost every field he has stepped in — be it sports, entertainment, or business. But that success didn’t save him from getting into an incredibly humiliating moment while meeting one of those brilliant actors he most admired and wanted to meet while growing up. This actor was none other than the late beloved legend, Robin Williams.

Luckily enough for him, even before joining the sequel of William’s widely-celebrated Jumanji film from 1995, Johnson managed to run into the iconic comedian for the very first time in his life. But that first meet was so nerve-wracking for the WWE hunk that it eventually ended up as an embarrassing moment for The Rock, with him even terming it “a disaster!”

Update: Following his interview with The Guardian, David Harewood clarified his remarks: “I don’t support or condone Blackface. My own documentary on the subject can be found on the BBC website. It is a grotesque distortion of race and should always be condemned.”
Previous: Homeland star David Harewood has said he is worried about the creep of identity politics in acting and argued that white performers should be able to “black up.”
In an interview with The Guardian to mark his appointment as president of British drama school Rada, Harewood made the case for controversial casting decisions on the proviso that performers deliver.
“We’re at this strange point in the profession where people go: ‘Oh, you can’t play that role because you’re not disabled, or you can’t play that because you’re not really from there.’ The name of the game is acting,” he said.

I entered Asphalt City at last year’s EnergaCAMERIMAGE festival with nothing but morbid curiosity. Having engendered some rank responses from its Cannes premiere and not secured any known U.S. distributor, Jean-Stéphane Sauvaire’s film had the right kind of bad-object energy one needs at the jetlagged start to their week in a small Polish city. (Or just the comfort I personally get from a Brooklyn-shot feature featuring two Club Random guests.)

On the latest episode of his podcast Wild Ride!, Steve-o said he turned down appearing on Bill Maher’s podcast because the Club Random host refused to not smoke weed during their chat.
Steve-o — whose real name is Stephen Glover — asked conservative commentator Patrick Bet-David, who appeared on Club Random recently, about his experience with Maher, particularly about how he felt about the TV personality smoking weed in the room.
While Bet-David didn’t appear to have an issue with it, Glover noted that he brought it up because Maher didn’t respect his wishes as a former addict to have a sober environment.
“For me, I’m a clean and sober guy. It’s very important that I maintain my sobriety,” said Glover. “I’m about to be sweet 16 [years sober], coming up on it. Really, there’s nothing I value more than my sobriety. There’s nothing more that I protect than my recovery.
