Floyd Mayweather decided upon an opponent for his forty-ninth and final fight. It’s not Amir Khan, Keith Thurman, or Timothy Bradley. It’s not even Shawn Porter.

The Tour de France’s owner of the yellow jersey received a yellow jacket on Saturday.

Bruce Jenner won the Male Athlete of the Year Award from the Associated Press in 1976. Last night, Jenner won ESPN’s Arthur Ashe Courage Award as a female. Confused? Siri’s not.

History happened in a no-need-for-editing highlight reel in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

Robbie Lawler retained his UFC welterweight strap in perhaps the greatest title fight in the division’s history.

Conor McGregor put an exclamation point on perhaps the most spectacular main card in mixed-martial-arts history with a come-from-behind TKO of Chad Mendes at UFC 189.

Breitbart Sports asked former UFC greats Bas Rutten, Matt Hughes, and Frank Trigg what current fighters remind them of themselves on the conference call for their induction this weekend into the promotion’s Hall of Fame.

ESPN’s two-year experiment of becoming MSNBC has ended. The network has cancelled Olbermann. MSNBC, even when it appears on ESPN, apparently still does cable-access ratings.

“When you look into a man’s eyes—look him dead in the eye—you can see straight into his soul,” Conor McGregor maintained on the UFC 189 conference call last week. McGregor said that when he looked into Jose Aldo’s eyes, the Brazilian’s soul informed him: “This mother—er doesn’t want to be here.”

Former UFC welterweight champion Matt Hughes concedes that some mixed-martial artists perceived as great by fans gained their reputations through outlawed chemicals.

Bas Rutten, Matt Hughes, and Frank Trigg win induction into the UFC Hall of Fame this weekend. They talked about the honor with Breitbart Sports.

The Think Progress headline reads: “FIFA Will Pay U.S. Women’s Championship Four Times Less Than Men’s Team That Lost in the First Round.” The article that appears below it nowhere explains that the inequality in ratings, ad revenue, and attendance between the men’s and women’s World Cup accounts for the inequality in prize money.

“Death at the Ballpark: More Than 2,000 Game-Related Fatalities of Players, Other Personnel, and Spectators in Amateur and Professional Baseball, 1862–2014” will change the way you watch baseball.

“Four minutes into the first round he will be unconscious,” Conor McGregor promises of his UFC 189 opponent. Chad Mendes vows to end McGregor’s night a minute earlier.

UFC middleweight Yoel Romero lived up to his “Soldier of God” moniker at UFC Fight Night 70.

Last weekend, Zack Hample caught A-Rod’s 3,000th hit, a home run to the short right-field porch in Yankee Stadium. The media attention Hample received nearly overshadowed the designated hitter’s feat. A-Rod owns merely 3,000 or so hits. Zack Hample boasts snagging more than 8,000 major-league balls. Breitbart Sports caught up with the Willie Mays of ballhawks to find out why he won’t give back the A-Rod ball, how to increase our chances of snagging souvenirs, and which parks favor the ball-hunting fans.

Conor McGregor-Jose Aldo, perhaps the most aggressively marketed fight in UFC history, almost ended with a whimper before either featherweight could end it with a bang.
