a former first-round draft pick of the Steelers reportedly was arrested near Pittsburgh on Sunday Via Colin Dunlap of KDKA Radio, Dunlap was arrested for simple assault and harassment in the Bell Acres Borough The document posted by Dunlap indicates that Bush is awaiting a preliminary arraignment He finished third in 2019 in the defensive rookie of the year voting He appeared in 16 games with 10 starts for the Browns in 2024 $3.25 million deal with $2.97 million guaranteed Beyond any potential consequences within the criminal justice system Bush will face potential discipline under the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy A Division of NBCUniversal DISCLAIMER: This site and the products offered are for entertainment purposes only and there is no gambling offered on this site This service is intended for adult audiences No guarantees are made for any specific outcome If you or someone you know has a gambling problem playHow Ryan Garcia suffered a shock defeat in Times Square (0:44)Ryan Garcia is easily beaten by Rolando Romero to leave hopes of a Devin Haney rematch in tatters the only person interested in a Garcia-Haney rematch was Romero "I ain't even thinking about what's next," Romero said after his unanimous decision victory "I think Devin and Ryan should get their rematch and make a big one." Haney-Ramirez was the front-runner for the worst fight of the year the third worst in CompuBox history for a 12-round fight But it was outdone an hour later by Garcia and Romero The air was let out of the balloon and a staged stare-down between Haney and Garcia was nixed following Romero's upset win Alalshikh could still go through with the rematch later this year but given how awful their respective fights were it may be best for Garcia and Haney to go in opposite directions until they reclaim their lost mojo An argument can be made that the rematch should have happened Friday without either fighter taking a tuneup bout scored a unanimous decision against Jose Ramirez but failed to shine. Photo by Cris Esqueda/Golden Boy/Getty ImagesFor Garcia there will be questions surrounding his performance which was night and day compared to his fight with Haney last year Did the performance-enhancing drugs really help considering how listless and disengaged he looked against Romero He will have to redeem himself in his next fight and it also might be in his best interest that he moves back down to 140 pounds such as hard-hitting Subriel Matias or Liam Paro who is willing to engage and offer him the opportunity to land his trademark left hook Garcia is in a tough spot and will need to work hard to rinse the horrible taste of this fight out of the mouths of fans he could be lined up for a fight opposite Romero Haney is still an extremely talented fighter and is deserving of a big fight One thing is for sure: Friday night created more problems than solutions. Haney and Garcia need to separate and reclaim some momentum before facing each other again. Devin Haney did not inspire much confidence with his win over Jose Ramirez. Devin Haney returned with a win over Jose Ramirez tonight, but it came in a dreadful fight that saw Ramirez look washed and Haney like he lacked the confidence to engage at all anymore, an uninspired performance on both sides that would have been booed heartily had an actual fans been in attendance in Times Square. Haney (32-0, 15 KO) won on scores of 118-110, 119-109, and 119-109, and he deserved those wide cards. But this was anything but a domination, as Haney simply moved laterally for 12 rounds, avoided action as much as he could, and Ramirez (29-3, 18 KO) just lacked the energy to do much about any of it. The CompuBox numbers say plenty about this particular fight, with Haney landing 70 of 224 total punches to Ramirez’s 40 of 279. CompuBox’s analysis makes note that “in most rounds, Haney did not punch for the first 30 seconds, a couple of times it was a full minute before he threw.” Haney’s performance is not going to inspire much confidence that he has too good of a shot in a likely rematch later this year with Ryan Garcia. Whatever flaws Garcia has, he is aggressive, fast, and explosive, which Haney knows quite well, and those are all things that Ramirez has never been, really, and certainly isn’t anymore. At 32, Ramirez just looks miles off the world level pace, and he may have to consider his future in the sport, even at a pretty young age. There are a lot of miles on him and questions about how much passion he has for the sport anymore, and watching him in recent fights, those questions seem plenty valid. Oops. Something went wrong.

A unique event in Times Square ended with Ryan Garcia suffering a nightmare loss to Rolly Romero after Devin Haney did his bit to set up a rematch by outpointing Jose Ramirez Ryan Garcia suffered a nightmare loss to Rolly Romero on Friday, potentially leaving his planned rematch with Devin Haney in tatters Garcia was dropped by Romero in round two and ultimately beaten on points moments after Haney won a decision against Jose Ramirez in the very same ring in New York City a triumph for Garcia would have set up a rematch of their 2024 clash in which “King Ryan” dropped the “Dream” three times en route to a decision win which was overturned upon the revelation that Garcia had failed a pre-fight drug test while the 26-year-olds made their welterweight debuts on Friday (2 May) Haney won a wide decision against fellow former world champion Ramirez (119-109 yet he looked almost as gun-shy as the 32-year-old Haney appeared hesitant for much of the bout perhaps due to his disastrous evening against Garcia last time out although he did grow into the fight with Ramirez In any case, Haney did enough to secure the victory and stay unbeaten, which is more than can be said of Garcia, who suffered his second professional loss. All the action took place in Times Square, the heart of New York City, where Teofimo Lopez outpointed Arnold Barboza Jr earlier in the night. Re-live the fights below.

After a year layoff from suffering three disastrous knockdowns against Ryan Garcia in a no contest last April the "Dream" returned to action Friday night producing a unanimous decision over Jose Ramirez at The Ring’s Fatal Fury: Times Square in New York City 119-109 and 118-110 all in Haney's favor though his performance was far from special The final punch stats showed Haney threw 224 punches only landing a total of 70 consisting of 45 power shots and just 25 jabs Haney started the bout Friday night looking extremely tentative going several seconds without throwing a single punch and appearing to still be facing the mental effects of the loss he took to Garcia that was later changed to a no-contest after the latter failed a drug test Haney began opening up his offense a bit by unleashing stinging combinations and crunching uppercuts though he didn't mash the dash and capitalize on any of his output and managed to land some pounding shots though it was clear he was a step behind Haney's speed It was far from a highlight win but Haney did more than enough to win what you're looking for isn't here.. Devin Haney remains undefeated after picking up a unanimous decision win over Jose Ramirez The fight served as the second of three "main event" fights at the Fatal Fury: City of Wolves event which took place in the streets of Times Square in New York The final fight of the event is a showdown between Ryan Garcia and Rolando Romero The scorecards showed Haney won the 12-round welterweight bout against Ramirez decisively Haney flinched repeatedly when Ramirez got in close but his opponent failed to land many punches Haney’s quickness and hand speed served him well The victory helped secure a likely rematch with Ryan Garcia Round 1: A muscular Devin Haney doesn’t look ready to flex them immediately Jose Ramirez scores with a couple of lefts Velcro strap comes loose from Haney’s right shoe Round 2: The Velcro strap still flapping on Haney’s right shoe The result of a year-long layoff or haunted by getting knocked down by Ryan Garcia three times and the good thing for him is Ramirez is doing very little Haney lands a solid right as he comes alive Round 3: Haney’s corner has put tape over the uncooperative Velcro but still looks tentative when Ramirez attacks – not often enough Just when he seemed ready to assert himself Ramirez showing little ability to hit Haney with any authority and Haney staying on the move without punching Round 6: Ramirez opens with a left that grazes Haney Haney stays on the move and quickly covers up at the sight of any punch Ramirez lands a left and then eats a right counter Haney landing more punches but taking few chances Ramirez showing underwhelming ability to score Haney treating Ramirez as if he’s a Hall of Famer Round 9: Ramirez attacks and lands a body shot Haney lands a strong right and darts to his right rather than follow up but eats a couple of punches when he gets too close Round 10: Haney back to moving rather than standing his ground The strategy likely is paying off on the scorecards if only to prove he’s equipped for a rematch with Garcia Just lands a left to the body and fires a couple of shots as Haney darts away Bush re-signed with Cleveland back in March There are no further details on his arrest that have been released More Devin Bush Jr.: News, Rankings, Projections, Stats Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney will appear as they look to build interest for their rematch Garcia will go in with Rolly Romero while Haney faces the threat of former unified world champion Teofimo Lopez fights in his home city as he defends his WBO super-lightweight title against Arnold Barboza DAZN News has everything you need to know ahead of one of the most spectacular shows of 2025 Ryan Garcia vs Rolly Romero will take place on  Friday, May 2  at The Ring's Fatal Fury: Times Square, with the whole card set to be shown live only on DAZN PPV Garcia vs Romero will be exclusively on DAZN PPV Fight fans can purchase the fight individually for  $59.99 US; £/€21.99 UK/IRE; ROW - $24.99  per PPV or take advantage of the DAZN Knockout Weekend Bundle for  $90 US; £34.99 in the UK and €34.99 in Europe which includes Garcia vs Romero and Canelo vs Scull on May 3 The fight is set to be held at  Times Square The historic Midtown Manhattan intersection brings together Broadway will bring some massive names together for an unmissable contest too Glenn Feldman and Mark Consentino scored the bout 119-109 twice It wasn't the kind of performance to inspire confidence that Haney has recovered from his last fight on April 20 when he was knocked down three times by Ryan Garcia in a decision loss that turned into a no-contest after Garcia failed multiple drug tests for ostarine It was the classic case of win now and look good next time for the former undisputed lightweight and WBC junior welterweight champion, which was echoed by International Hall of Fame broadcaster Jim Lampley . @Realdevinhaney pic.twitter.com/LegIva7DQo 15 KOs) set the tone early when he was constantly on the move and clinching in the opening round That became the theme for much of the fight as Ramirez (29-3 a former unified junior welterweight champion Haney let his hands go more in the second half of the fight and showed signs of getting over the fight vs though he still leaned heavily on his lateral movement the ultimate goal is to get your hand raised but questions still linger on if he can get back to the level he was at before his fight vs How would you rate that performance from Devin Haney?

Me, as a trainer, I watch fights...they promised three great fights in Times Square. There was no fights. Honestly, it was boring watching those fights and it’s upsetting that those guys get paid the top dollar for that. They don’t perform based on their paychecks.” “You know, I’ve seen worse. I saw Shakur Stevenson fight Dos Santos, the Dominican kid. I mean, come on. One or two punches a round? That’s not boxing...I think this new era of boxing is more about show than fighting.” “Devin, when he lets go of his hands he lands because he has accuracy. But why doesn’t he let go of his punches? I mean, look, Ramirez was pressuring the whole fight, He wanted to engage because Ramirez wanted to fight, but you got to have a partner, right? You got to have a partner to exchange but there was no partner for him, he was just chasing the rabbit around the whole ring. “He needs to retire, man. Devin Haney needs to retire and just let the real fighters get in the ring and perform. Honestly, never been a fan of his boxing. The only good fight I saw him was when he fought Linares, and I saw the fight because of Linares, not because of him. But these kinds of performances, man, he should just retire. “Ryan, I like Ryan. Ryan’s a great guy but once he got hit with a left hook, what happened to that anger in you. When he fought [Luke Campbell] he got dropped and he came back and boom, demolished him.

Neal rushed for more than 1,000 yards each of the last three years in college, and in the process of his four-year career at Kansas became the program’s all-time leading rusher when it came to the people Leipold talked to the range of what Leipold thought would be possible spanned from late on day two of the draft to where Neal ended up on day three Leipold mentioned there was a lot of depth at running back in this year’s draft class so there would be a lot of competition to be selected Leipold said it’s about what you do with the chance you have He thinks there’s a history Neal is in a position to live up to of players who’ve emerged during the program rebuild at KU who thrive in an underdog role What makes Devin Neal such a talented player?Leipold described Neal as a grounded hard-working individual who’s never satisfied and praised the vision and patience Neal has running the ball he was one of the faces of the program’s rebuild as a Lawrence native Neal essentially lived in running backs coach Jonathan Wallace’s office in between meetings during fall camp and that interest — which Leipold envisions Neal having in New Orleans — served Neal well as he ultimately became a starter How can Devin Neal fit in with New Orleans?Personally Leipold is sure Neal will be able to adapt to a new city and organization just fine Leipold described Neal as a likable guy who can fit in with various types of groups Leipold thinks fans will appreciate what Neal is all about and talked about how Neal is someone who will get involved in the community Leipold remarked that Neal will embrace whatever role comes his way and doesn’t shy away from coaching in areas he needs to improve Leipold said Neal has worked a lot on his receiving skills and keeps focusing on becoming better in pass protection Leipold noted it’ll be great for Neal to be able to have a mentor in New Orleans like veteran running back Alvin Kamara Jordan Guskey covers University of Kansas Athletics at The Topeka Capital-Journal He was the 2022 National Sports Media Association’s sportswriter of the year for the state of Kansas Contact him at jmguskey@gannett.com or on Twitter at @JordanGuskey Unfortunately the Devin Haney vs Jose Ramirez fight didn’t live up to expectations the action inside the ring was anything but spectacular with barely any punches thrown throughout the 12 round affair In the end it was Haney that came out on top with scorecards of 119-109, 119-109 and 118-110 to win by unanimous decision, but there was little done to suggest to boxing world that he was back to his best following his fight with Ryan Garcia in April 2024 With just 503 combined punches thrown it ranks as number four in CompuBox history for the fewest punches thrown in a 12-round fight and here’s

BoxingTimes Square meltdown: Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney totally flop on massive stageCris Esqueda/Golden Boy Promotionsby Kevin Iole May 2 it made perfect sense: Stage a high-stakes fight card in the middle of New York’s Times Square put some of boxing’s most recognizable young names front and center and bring in a legendary voice to narrate it all Turki Alalshikh invested tens of millions to make it happen Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney had completely fumbled the moment The result was a couple of forgettable fights Haney versus Jose Ramirez and Garcia against Rolly Romero were shockingly bad fights considering the stage and the stakes Haney-Ramirez was no exaggeration one of the worst fights of the 21st century Teofimo Lopez turned in a sharp one-sided performance against Arnold Barboza making it easily the best fight of the night Haney-Ramirez was an F at best and given people had to pay nearly $50 to watch it He was outboxed by Romero and lost so decisively that it puts the planned multi-million dollar rematch with Haney in serious doubt But he has so many holes defensively he’s open far more than the Vikings’ Justin Jefferson Trainer Derrick James was urging him between rounds to compete but he went back out round after round intent it seemed only on avoiding Romero’s left hook He fought with discipline he hadn't showed and didn't make the egregious mistakes he had in the past Garcia didn't cause him to make any unforced efforts That hook floored Garcia in the second and seemed to sap the little fight he brought with him Garcia didn’t seem interested in engaging after he pulled himself off the canvas Garcia is perceived as one of boxing’s biggest stars but it’s more for his looks and his social media following than anything else He delivered a signature performance in a win over Haney on April 20 across the river at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn but he failed his post-fight drug test and was suspended for a year This is a guy who folded when he was hit hard by Tank Davis and whose most significant win remains either a 2022 KO of a faded Javier Fortuna or a 2021 TKO of Luke Campbell.As big wins go • He’s got a massive social media following When are we going to see him put it together without the benefit of PEDs CompuBox noted that the 503 combined thrown punches were third-fewest in its 40-year history in a 12-round fight it dropped to fourth an hour later when Garcia and Romero managed to throw only 490 combined punches Haney had 16 punches landed — IN TOTAL — after four rounds Ramirez landed zero power punches in Rounds 1 and 2 and connected on zero jabs in Rounds 8 and 12 And then Garcia and Romero nearly went out and “exceeded” it Garcia seemed to sleepwalk through the bout and responded to next-to-nothing.  He’s battled mental health issues for a long time but his desultory effort made me wonder if the medications he took robbed him of his fight He seemed angrier at the opening round of news conferences when Romero trash talked him When he had the chance to do something about it Friday Alalshikh’s idea to put three of the sport’s brightest young stars on a massive stage in one of America’s most iconic venues was brilliant Do you care about Garcia-Haney 2 after seeing that Friday night’s card was supposed to be a celebration for a sport pulling itself out of the doldrums slow and filled with folks going through the motions NEW YORK -- Devin Williams has been removed from his role as New York Yankees closer "for right now," manager Aaron Boone said Sunday The move comes two days after Williams endured another rough outing and was booed off the mound at Yankee Stadium in a loss to the Toronto Blue Jays The 30-year-old right-hander has a 11.25 ERA with career-worst marks in strikeout rate (18.2%) whiff rate (24.1%) and walk rate (15.9%) in eight innings across 10 appearances this season it's not really a shock to me," Williams said following the Yankees' doubleheader sweep of the Blue Jays "Being a closer is a position you have to earn and you have to keep earning it to continue to be in that role Boone said setup man Luke Weaver who has a 0.00 ERA in 13 innings pitched this season will assume "a lot of" the team's save opportunities Boone maintained he is open to using Weaver in high-leverage spots earlier in games and other relievers to close This is a guy that is in the prime of his career and he's just going through it a little bit," said Boone who informed Williams of the decision Saturday you make a career that's long enough and you're going to face some challenging moments You're going to face some adversity along the way And good news for Devin is he's got everything to get through this and come out better on the other side I think it's best for everyone that we pull him out of that role and try and start building some good rhythm and confidence and momentum and fully expect him to be a central figure for us moving forward." Boone said Williams won't have a specific role -- whether pitching in low-leverage situations or tight spots just earlier in games -- as he seeks to re-establish himself for a team with the ninth-best bullpen ERA in the majors despite his struggles The key will be for Williams to avoid falling behind in counts as he did against the three hitters he faced Friday leading to the home crowd again showering him with loud boos while adding a "We want Weaver!" chant Williams wound up surrendering two runs on three hits without recording an out to blow the save and continue his alarming troubles The Yankees hope his changeup-fastball mix will baffle hitters again and allow him to return to the pitcher he has been for his entire career "Count leverage is a big thing for pitchers "And I think he's been behind a number of times He's also had it not bounce his way in a number of these games where it's gotten away "But I think the biggest thing for a guy as good as he is and where he is from an age standpoint in the prime of his career getting in a good rhythm and then off we go." figured to cement the Yankees' bullpen as one of the best in the majors Williams established himself as one of baseball's premier relievers over six seasons with the Brewers using a singular screwball-like changeup known as "The Airbender." The right-hander posted a 1.83 ERA with a 39.4% across 241 appearances in Milwaukee. He won the 2020 National League Rookie of the Year Award as a setup man for Josh Hader and made two All-Star teams But Williams' Yankees tenure has been turbulent from start After emerging as the catalyst to have the Yankees' decades-long no-beard policy changed during spring training he was booed at Yankee Stadium during his sloppy debut on Opening Day against his former club Boone acknowledged the fans' treatment could have an impact on Williams' performance "I think there's that adjustment," Boone said "Devin's really been nothing but successful at the big-league level That's what I talk to these guys all the time about is like When I came here in 2003 at the trade deadline Mariano Rivera was getting booed in August I'm sure there's some shock to that and some .. But my reminder to him is you have all the equipment to do this at an elite level and that's still a reality." In other developments, Luis Gil the reigning AL Rookie of the Year Award winner is on the 60-day injured list and is projected to return in June at the earliest Also, right-hander Jonathan Loáisiga who is returning from internal brace elbow surgery started his rehab assignment for Class A Tampa on Saturday and threw 11 pitches with one strikeout in a clean inning He could rejoin the Yankees as early as late May The Associated Press contributed to this report.
