In Football: For the first time in years, there are good vibes coming from FC Barcelona. The Catalonian giants have won all seven of their games in LaLiga this season.
 
Teenage forward Lamine Yamal is on his way to superstardom and their new German Manager, Hansi Flick, is immersing himself in Catalonian culture, and Barca fans love him for it. 

Barcelona – the Club that thinks of football as art! The Club of Johan Cruyff, Pep Guardiola and Lionel Messi - is where it hopes to be.

In Boxing: Mad Irishman and former UFC two-division champ, Conor McGregor has revealed that he held prior talks for a two-fight MMA-Boxing tango with Terence Crawford, but the talks fell through.

It’s always about the cash!
