Roskilde Festival campsite opens on Saturday, while the festival site opens Wednesday. It is expected that 100,000 people will visit the festival. Roskilde is one of the festival season's big boys. It's coming to the end of its fifth decade now and summer in Denmark just wouldn't be summer without it. Which isn't bad going for a festival that was originally set up in 1971 by two high-school students and a music promoter. Alongside its massive orange main stage and its annual naked run – yes, it's really a thing; YouTube it if you don't believe us – the festival is famous for booking the biggest acts in music as well as some of the most Roskilde Festival 2017 Live cutting-edge. And 2017 is no different.On this year's bill are Arcade Fire, Solange, Ice Cube, The xx, Foo Fighters, Lorde and many, many more. To ramp up anticipation – and to highlight the breadth of music on offer – we've picked five essential albums, all released over the past few months , by artists who are on this year's Roskilde bill.The impact the New Zealand singer had when she shot from unknown to world-conquering with her 2013 Pure Heroine debut was remarkable. From her self-confidence and distinctive voice to her strange, shadow-cloaked pop, Lorde seemed almost otherworldly. But just as soon as she'd arrived, Ella Yelich-O’Connor withdrew from public life. Until now. Her follow-up is richer than her debut, with all the beefed-up production you'd expect of a bona-fide star. But the songs – "incorrect songwriting," she's called it – are just as peculiar and unconventional as ever. It's been worth the wait.Danmarks Meteorologiske Institut Roskilde Festival 2017 Live Stream (DMI) is predicting heavy rain at this year’s festival, which opens its gates on Saturday to the first campers arriving at the site. Cold and wet “It won’t be the best weather. This weekend will be cool and wet, especially Sunday,” said Dan Nisvall from DMI to Jyllands Posten. Monday and Tuesday are expected to be a bit Roskilde Festival Live Stream milder, with less wind, and temperatures of 20-25 degrees could be possible. However, in the early hours of Wednesday, the rain will return with a vengeance. “A front will come in from the southwest and there is a risk of heavy rain and thunder,” added Nisvall. Not much respite As it looks at the moment, there won’t be any longer periods of fine weather. Nisvall expects the worst conditions to be experienced from late Thursday evening and during the night, when 15-30 mm of rain could fall in short periods. Nisvall does point out, though, that the forecast Roskilde Festival Live could be a little uncertain, as it covers a long period, but what is scheduled for the first few days is likely to be accurate. Sold-out wash-out? On Monday, the Roskilde Festival announced that all the available 80,000 partout tickets had been sold.At the moment, one-day tickets are still available for Wednesday and Thursday The Baltimore synth-rock trio made an unexpected breakthrough in 2014 when frontman Samuel T Herring brought his crazy-legs dancing and croon-into-metal growl to mainstream US TV. It captivated the world and their Singles album became a word-of-mouth hit. Now Future Islands are on their fifth album and the band's propulsive, synth-led alt-rock, which is also informed by hardcore and hip-hop, has an extra anthemic touch. Don't miss their reliably intense performance at Roskilde. And although yesterday was not to Roskilde Festival 2017 Lineup get a precise answer from management on why young people should be moved from the so-called 'waiting area' so says the head of security for the festival, Morten Therkildsen, today, so many guests had to move out. - We look forward very much to take in on the guests and is busy doing the last things ready for them, but we are not there quite yet. On Wednesday night, we asked why the guests who stayed in the waiting areas, to move to an area nearby and simultaneously turn down the music installations of consideration for neighbors. It had most fully understand, he explains. there overturns only more visitors Roskilde Festival 2017 Lineup Live to the area around the festival site, but the security chief asks them to stay home for a while. - We call on Facebook the expectant guests to wait to leave for, we are ready to take against them. Roskilde Festival 2017 Lineup Live Stream We open for waiting areas Friday afternoon and camping areas open Saturday. 16:00, says Morten Therkildsen to Ekstra Bladet.

Portugal boss Fernando Santos has given no indication over whether Cristiano Ronaldo will be rested for their final Confederations Cup group game against New Zealand vs Portugal
The 32-year-old's 74th international goal delivered a win over Russia on Wednesday, meaning a draw against the pointless Kiwis would be enough for the Euro 2016 champions to advance to the last four. Santos has promised he will rotate his team against the All Whites, with one change enforced due to Borussia Dortmund left-back Raphael Guerreiro's injury, though he did not show his hand when it came to questions about his most valuable asset. Ronaldo was rested at times by Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane towards the end of the season and reaped the benefits as he helped his club secure both the LaLiga and Champions League titles. Put to him that those in Saint Petersburg and others watching back in New Zealand were excited about watching the forward, Santos told a press conference: "There are many millions who, every time Cristiano plays, New Zealand vs Portugal Live are very interested in him playing. He's the best player in the world. "Everybody wants to watch Cristiano Ronaldo, even I want to watch Cristiano Ronaldo! "I don't know if I'm going to play with Cristiano or not, I'm not going to tell you anything about the line-up. I don't want the opponents to know. Rotation will take place, that's what I can tell you." While acknowledging Ronaldo's status, New Zealand manager Anthony Hudson was keen to stress that even without him, the European champions will pose a serious test for his already-eliminated side. "I think he's the best in the world," Hudson said. "You take Ronaldo out of the team, you still have some world-class players in there as well. We've seen everything has been tried and it's not one of those where if you deal with Ronaldo then that's it. They have other top players. "We have a gameplan that we're going to stick to. We're not overawed by it. We're looking forward to it. We're not just going there to play against Portugal and Ronaldo, we're going there to get a result." Ronaldo might not be the only leading light New Zealand vs Portugal Live Stream. are facing in the coming months. A return to Russia for next summer's World Cup will only be possible if the All Whites, who must first win the qualifying section in Oceania, can then win a play-off against the team that finishes fifth in South America, which is a spot currently occupied by Lionel Messi's Argentina. "I don't think it will be Argentina now they have the coach they have," Hudson added, referencing the appointment of Jorge Sampaoli earlier this month. "We have an incredible amount Portugal vs New Zealand of confidence that whoever we face, it's the fifth best team in South America. They're fifth for a reason and we'll have confidence going into that game."In an evenly-matched game at Sochi’s Fisht Stadium, Mexico survived a major scare to eventually run out 2-1 winners, after second-half goals by Raul Jimenez and Oribe Peralta overturned a first-half strike from New Zealand captain Chris Wood. All Whites boss Anthony Hudson put his faith in youth by including 18-year-old Dane Ingham in the starting line-up – the second youngest player ever to appear at the Confederations Cup – along with 22-year-old Ryan Thomas. New Zealand started much the brighter of the two teams, with Mexico struggling to get to grips with their high-pressing game. Mexico head coach Juan Carlos Osorio made major changes to the team that drew 2-2 with Portugal on Sunday, and his side struggled to find any fluency in the face of New Zealand’s intensity.Kiwi striker Wood almost gave the All Whites the lead around the half-hour mark but he failed to beat Mexico keeper Alfredo Portugal vs New Zealand Live Talavera when one-on-one.The New Zealand skipper made no mistake on 42 minutes though, capitalizing on sloppy Mexican play to fire past Talavera and give the All Whites a deserved lead going into the break. Mexico unsurprisingly came out fired up for the second half, and put New Zealand under near-constant pressure from the off – going close through Giovani dos Santos, who fired over from five yards out when unmarked. Wood had a golden chance to extend New Zealand’s lead when again one-on-one with Talavera, but failed to round the Mexico keeper and was made to rue the miss just seconds later when Jimenez equalized for Mexico with a sharp turn and strike on 54 minutes. Rafa Marquez came on for El Tri, at 38 years and four months old becoming the second-oldest player ever to appear at the Tournament of Champions. Portugal vs New Zealand Live Stream finally began to settle again and seemed to be gaining the ascendancy, but were hit by a sucker-blow when Mexico struck on 72 minutes, when Oribe Peralta fired in from a Javier Aquino In terms of numbers of participants, Island Games 2017 it will be one of the biggest sporting events to take place this summer.

The figures, based on Google Analytics statistics, are equal to over 17 years of non-stop viewing time crammed into just five years! Shortlisted for the Kieran Hegarty Award for Gotland 2017 Innovation at this year’s Celtic Media Festival, MTTV began when Manx Telecom identified that although there was a demand for local video news coverage, and the technology existed to provide it, there was little Isle of Man coverage being offered by mainstream TV channels. Investment in 3G and, later, 4G networks opened up the possibility of roving reporters uploading videos from the scene of breaking news stories. This month, MTTV will accompany Team Isle of Man as their media partner, staying with them in Gotland, Sweden, to provide video coverage of the NatWest Island Games (June 24-30) to family, friends and residents back at home. MTTV’s anchorman Paul Moulton, former broadcast journalist with Manx Radio, Energy FM, ITV and BBC, said: “It’s been an exciting journey made possible by technology, and worthwhile because of the loyal audience MTTV has built up over the years. Using 3G and Gotland 2017 live 4G mobile broadband has been the key to the speed of reports online because we can upload from on location, almost anywhere on the Island. Skype, drone footage, and even aerial coverage from a helicopter after the snowstorms in 2013, have also added new dimensions to our news output. Viewers want us to be first with reports when big news breaks, and I’m proud to say we have done that time after time. MTTV has also changed the way politics is reported on the Island – ranging from live reports from by-elections and the General Election, bringing news and opinion from Westminster talking to MPs about Brexit, to the first live video broadcast from Tynwald. Interviews are not edited, so we can give people more time to get their message across in detail. 2017 Island Games Live is the only channel where voters can see and hear their political representatives week in week out – in most weeks the Chief Minister and his Cabinet sit down for an MTTV interview, where else does that happen?” In the past five years the channel has posted more than 3,000 reports on all aspects of Island life, and many events abroad which have local interest, including reports from Sweden, Hungary, Australia, Jersey, UK and America. In addition to this year’s 2017 Island Games, MTTV’s cameras also plan to be in Australia’s Gold Coast for coverage of the 2018 Commonwealth Games. Recent feedback from interviewees demonstrates NatWest Island Games 2017 some of the ways MTTV has helped local organisations: “I would like to thank and congratulate Manx Telecom for providing the MTTV service, both as a general observation and for personal reasons. Ticket sales for our charitable theatre show doubled within 3 days of our interview. The news reports are impressive in terms of cover and depth on a wide variety of subjects vital, important or of interest to islanders.” Josephine Veldhuizen. “We had 7 plays over the week 15/21st April NatWest Island Games 2017 live and from comments I have heard we have gained “bums on seats” because of MTTV. This coverage has also been very well received by all the visiting teams and their followers on and off the Island – so well done MTTV and Paul Moulton’s superb professional coverage, long may this continue. It is I am sure a wonderful contribution to our Island (and overseas) Community.” Olga Gray MBE, past president/Chairman of the Manx Amateur Drama Federation.

Former Munster coach Rob Penney said Ireland’s two-match tour of Japan has been hugely beneficial for local administrators preparing to host the Rugby World Cup in 2019. Penney, now in his third year coaching NTT Com in the Japanese league, believes the 2019 global showpiece will be a huge success. But it’s obvious that there will be difficulties as the tournament is staged outside the tier one countries for a first time, and Penney feels that visits from teams like Ireland can help the Japanese adapt to the needs of competitiors. “This country is ‘uniquely unique Japan vs Ireland ’ — that’s probably the best way to put. It is like nothing you would encounter in any European or Western environment. They are very proud, and very particular, of their culture which keeps it as unique as it is. “The more interaction the Japanese administration can have with western teams, and the needs of the western teams, the better they are going to be at servicing their needs when the World Cup comes to the country.” Ireland trained at Penney’s NTT Com club in Tokyo this week and will wrap up their summer tour against Japan at the Ajinomoto Stadium this morning (6.40am, eir sport) when they will hope to extend their winning run over the Brave Blossoms to seven games. Penney enjoyed meeting up with the Irish, especially the Munster contingent, and he hopes many of them will be back in 2019. The former Canterbury coach said that the Japanese were working hard to host a great World Cup but pointed out that they will need co-operation from others. “They are going to need some help and hopefully the teams that do come will be a bit patient because it is a bit different but they work hard and they try hard here to please everybody. Japan vs Ireland Live Stream It will be a great World Cup and everyone who comes here will have a great experience.” Perese has been among Australia vs Italy Live best all tournament and it was his brilliance that proved the difference between the two teams in the first 50 minutes, when the game was won. The star centre's explosive power was only matched by the Australian scrum which, along with the lineout, provided a terrific platform for Harrison Goddard and Hamish Stewart to launch wave after wave of attack. The halves controlled proceedings with poise for all but the second quarter of the match, where the Italians made the Australians pay for a drop in intensity. Aside from Perese, Liam Wright was at his pickpocketing best at the breakdown, with Reece Hewat putting in another fine captain's knock on both sides of the ball.Jordan Uelese continued his terrific carries, pumping his legs to put himself over the gain line with every touch Australia vs Italy Live. The Australians started with a bang but it was due to individual brilliance more than well worked team play, as Perese had a double inside the first 10 minutes after a pair of breathtaking bursts. The first came from absolutely nothing, a loose pass 30 metres out from the Australian line creating an opportunity for Perese to scoop the ball up, turn on the jet shoes and split the Italians up the middle, as he ran 70 metres to score. That was followed five minutes later by another sharp turn of foot, this time Perese running a perfect support line for Wright, who slipped a terrific offload to the outside centre.It was 14-0 at the 10 minute mark but that's where the first half was turned on its head. The Australians had plenty of ball but couldn't find the go forward they had on tap against England, turning to cute kicks and passes that didn't work. That created opportunities for the Italians, who scored two tries in the final five minutes of the first half to only trail 14-12 at the break. The first of the Azzurri tries was a well worked overlap in the left hand corner but it was the next five pointer which was cause for concern. The Italians had clearly done their homework and were rushing the Australian running lines behind the front line but the Aussies seemingly did not catch on - Harry Hockings throwing a lazy intercept which Antonio Rizzi picked off and dished to Giovanni D'Onofrio, who scored under the sticks.The Italians threatened again early in the second term after Perese blew an opportunity to set up Australia's third but Hewat saved the day with a massive counter ruck effort.Australia vs Italy Live Stream That triggered the attack which opened the floodgates for the Australians. Perese nabbed his third in the minutes after, Wright again dishing the try assist after Hamish Stewart found the flanker over the top of more Italian defenders rushing out of the line. Goddard then extended the lead with 55 minutes on the clock, burrowing over to get a reward for the understated role he played all afternoon. That was followed by a try to Sione Tuipulotu, the inside centre rewarded for supporting his own cross field kick to Semisi Tupou after the winger collected the loose ball. Dal Zilio then crossed for his Italy vs Australia second before Hewat was rewarded for all his hard work, picking the ball up after his pack drove over the top of an Italian feed and diving over in what would be the final scoring act of the match.O’Shea has made three changes to the team that was narrowly beaten by Fiji in Suva last weekend, bringing scrumhalf Tito Tebaldi to the starting side for the first time in three years, with backrower Andries Van Schalkwyk at no. 8 and Marco Lazzaroni in line for a debut off the bench.The Italy mentor said there was a mix of reasons for the changes. “There’s an element of consistency,” he said.“We talked about the nines at the start and we felt there’s a real competition for those, so we want to give everyone an equal opportunity.“This is Tito’s chance to have a go and it’s getting that balance between consistency of selection but also freshening up the team Italy vs Australia Live “Hopefully Marco Lazzaroni comes off the bench and adds energy, in terms of getting a new cap.” With injuries to a number of experienced players, including Brisbane-born Luke McLean, Italy has come into the June Series with a young squad, with an average age of 25, a situation not that far removed from the Wallabies’ own. O’Shea’s side has shown it’s not afraid of the international heavyweights, pushing England in the Six Nations with a controversial, but legal, ruck tactic, and the Irishman said fear wouldn’t be creeping in on Saturday. “We came so close - we should’ve beaten Fiji on the balance looking back on the game but we know this is a step up in class,” he said. “We’ve a lot of changes to make, we’re on a huge growth curve in Italian rugby. “Changes that should’ve been made Italy vs Australia Live Stream years ago, we’re making now with group of young players who are learning a lot, getting better. We know how tough this is going to be - the Wallabies on a backlash but we’ll get up and I’ve said to our fellas, we’re going to take the game to them. “There’s no point standing back, if we stand back it’s a disaster. “Both sides of the ball, we have to take the game to them and play our way, not try and play the Wallabies’ way.” Wallabies coach Michael Cheika is wary of O’Shea’s innovative tactics and said they would need to be prepared for unorthodox measures at Suncorp. “They've got a clever coaching team and they've done a lot of little things,” he said. From that (ruck strategy), to two-man Italy vs Wallabies Live lineouts, they've got some very different switches back down the blindside, so we've got to be aware of all those things but not let that override playing our own game.”Ross Ford claimed two scores against Italy but has to be satisfied with a place on the bench. If he comes on, he will match the Scotland caps record of 109 held by Chris Paterson. "It is a brilliant achievement," said Townsend. "It shows a great level of consistency in a game that has changed a lot."Not only that but he has been one of our best performers. Two tries last week were pretty good as well. "This is a great achievement but we also believe he can carry on playing and have a big role up to and including the World Cup.Explaining the changes, he added: "On this tour, we were always keen to make sure that players who were close to selection got an opportunity. A few got it last week, a few who were close to selection get it this week. "When you put a squad together, "On this tour, I do believe, a lot of positions are very competitive."The changes see the two front-row units swapped in their entirety, the Glasgow trio starting and their Edinburgh counterparts on the bench.Wallabies vs Italy Live you first put a team together that you believe can win. You want to see which players are able to perform at Test level and give them that opportunity - it is up to them after that. Jonny Gray comes in to partner Ben Toolis in the second row and Hamish Watson has recovered from his groin injury to start at flanker, with John Barclay shifting to the blindside and Ryan Wilson to No 8 to accommodate him.After playing out of position at full-back last week, Duncan Taylor reverts to centre where he partners Alex Dunbar. There is an entirely fresh back three, with Tonks returning at full-back for his first cap since 2015 and Jones on the wing for his first since 2012. Tonks was a late call-up to the Wallabies vs Italy squad but Townsend said he has no worries about including him, even though he spent last season in the Championship with London Irish. The offseason moves quickly in the NHL Draft 2017 . Less than two weeks after the Pittsburgh Penguins secured their second consecutive Stanley Cup, the NHL will hold its annual player draft.
The event will take place at the United Center in Chicago, and it will be conducted Friday and Saturday. The first round gets underway at 7 p.m. ET and will be televised by NBCSN, and while this draft does not have a Connor McDavid or an Auston Matthews to headline the event, there are a number of excellent players who are likely to become impact players. Will they burst on to the scene and dominate in 2017-18? Probably not. But they will make things happen in the foreseeable future. The power brokers of the NHL have packed up from Las Vegas after Wednesday's awards show and expansion draft. Now, it's on to Chicago, where the 2017 entry draft will kick off with the first 31 selections on Friday, followed by Rounds 2 through 7 on Saturday.

It's crucial to be able to fill roster spots with inexpensive young talent in order to balance the big contracts that have been handed out to veterans and stars. It's not just about the kids, either. Draft weekend has also become a stage for trades. Expect to see plenty of action this weekend, on the big board and the draft floor. Here are 10 important moments to watch for.
So for all of you fight fans who keep hitting Mayweather vs Mcgregor Live refresh on your browser waiting to read the news that a fight has been announced, it sounds promising but still has a long way to go. Even if the fight was announced tomorrow, the earliest this fight could take place would be August.
But with a mega pay per view opportunity with Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennady Golovkin on September 16, I'm not sure the market could bear back to back PPV investments, so late October or early November could be the target dates to get this fight on the books for 2017. I think that Espinoza chose his words wisely and for good reason . By saying this would be a complex negotiation could be an understatement, especially taking into account the numbers we've been hearing from both Mayweather and McGregor with regard to their minimum purse demands. Without getting too deep and sounding like an accountant, let's look at some basic numbers to give you a general idea as to how this works. To get to the $100 million purse amounts that have been bandied about, this bout would have to equal or exceed the revenue generated for the 2015 Floyd Mayweather vs Conor Mcgregor Fight bout that generated 4.4 million PPV sales exceeding $400 million in revenue. Add a live gate in excess of $70 million and another 40,000 closed circuit seats and you have an event that exceeded $500 million. The Mayweather-Pacquaio PPV cost customers $89.95. Based on Espinoza confirming Showtime would be involved, we're looking at the traditional model regarding the split. So it’s likely this bout would follow the boxing model where the cable, satellite and telephone companies would receive half of the PPV revenue right off the top and Showtime would receive 7.5 percent off the top as well. If Mayweather and McGregor work off the same 60-40 split that Mayweather and Pacquiao worked with, then you can create all sorts of models that would provide a range where it's reasonable Mayweather could earn between $60 million to $80 million and McGregor, who has to share his cut with the UFC, depending on how that deal is structured, could be looking at $20 million to $40 million. Even at the lower number, McGregor would earn more than double his highest pay day with the UFC. Is this enough money for Floyd Mayweather? I feel that's the real question. In the end, I don't see Conor McGregor walking away from the biggest payday of his career. Only time will tell, however, it feels like time is running out for 2017.The bout to determine worldwide pound-for-pound supremacy is fighting for attention, so it doesn’t help that one of the combatants has stopped talking. Wednesday’s announcement that Floyd Mayweather Jr. is returning from retirement to meet UFC champion Conor McGregor in a boxing match Aug. 26 has distracted from Saturday’s light-heavyweight title rematch between unbeaten Andre Ward and Russia’s Sergey Kovalev. Ward won the tightly contested first bout in November by rising from an early knockdown to edge Kovalev on three 114-113 scorecards. The rematch between the bitter rivals is drenched in Kovalev’s desperation and Ward’s ambition to surpass Gennady Golovkin as the world’s No. 1 boxer. Yet the bout is struggling to sell out even the 10,300-seat Mandalay Bay Resort venue,, and there are concerns it won’t match the 160,000 pay-per-view buys of November. “The question I’ve gotten most often is ‘Do you think this fight should be bigger?’” Kovalev promoter Kathy Duva said. “I looked on Google today and it’s all Mayweather Mcgregor Fightand the circus. … It’s a kick in the teeth. … This is the fight everybody asks for: The best fighting the best.” Though oddsmakers make Mayweather vs Mcgregor Live Stream a big favorite, the thought of the fight has excited many in the MMA world. It has also intrigued some in boxing, though most dismiss McGregor's chances under boxing rules against one of the greatest defensive fighters in history.
Oddsmaker Nick Bogdanovich, who set the 11-1 line at the William Hill chain of sports books, said the odds would be even more lopsided if it wasn't for the deluge of small bets expected to come in from UFC fans on their fighter. "Realistically if we were just putting up a number and didn't have to take bets on it, Floyd would be 100-1," Bogdanovich said. "But this will be a very, very big betting fight for sure, one of the biggest ever." Is the Watch Mayweathe vs Mcgregor PPV Fight fight just hype or will it happen? One person with an inside view is Showtime Sports executive vice president and general manager Stephen Espinoza, who says that the cable network will televise the fight -- if it happens. But he says a lot remains to be done now that UFC and McGregor reached an agreement to negotiate a fight. "Now the real negotiation begins and that's between the Floyd side and the Conor-UFC side, and that negotiation is just starting now," Espinoza told me in England ahead of Saturday's championship fight between International Boxing Federation welterweight champion Kell Brook and undefeated challenger Errol Spence Jr. "We can cross our fingers and hope it goes smoothly and quickly, but it will be complex, there's no doubt." It's important to know that Showtime hasn't even had any formal dialogue with the UFC. When asked if he had spoken with UFC boss Dana White, Espinoza said, "There haven't been any meaningful conversations with Dana or anyone else at UFC, but that's going to happen pretty shortly." Adding to McGregor's challenge, the fighters will be using 10-ounce boxing gloves instead of the smaller UFC gloves and he will not be allowed to use the leg kicks or takedowns that are used in mixed martial arts. Even if the actual bout may not shape up as a great matchup, the run-up to the fight will. Both fighters are noted for their ability to sell their fights, and both have exchanged in trash talking and more to promote their bouts. "As with every Mayweather and McGregor fight part of the appeal is the spectacle and outsize personalities who are participating in it," Espinoza said. The pay-per-view revenue for the event would likely gross tens of millions of dollars. It comes less than a month before Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez meet in a highly anticipated fight Sept. 16 that could rival it for pay-per-view buys.It’s an interesting revelation to say the least, as White has always been instrumental in in making UFC’s biggest fights. Furthermore, to White’s point, while the WME-IMG higher-ups may not know much about “making big fights,” they do know a thing or three about closing multi-million dollar deals thanks to their extensive background in negotiating movie and television roles for some of the biggest Hollywood stars in the business today. They also know how to lock down multi-billion dollar transactions, as well.Nevertheless, we should get a clearer picture in the coming months as to who really is in charge of making the fight official. Unless, Mayweather vs Mcgregor Live Stream of course, you’re taking White’s word as gospel? |
