“When I was ten, I got into a fight with my sister. My mom told my dad, and when he got home, he said: ‘We’re going to the zoo—get the gloves.’ The ‘zoo’ was the cellar of our house, where the gloves always waited.
He jabbed at me while I covered up, saying: ‘You want to hit girls, huh? You know how much strength you’ve got?’ I cried and said I was sorry, but he kept at it. I never hit a girl again.”
That lesson came from none other than Smokin’ Joe Frazier, and the boy was Marvis Frazier—who went on to become a National Golden Gloves Champion and a respected professional boxer in his own right.
Today, the son of a legend celebrates his 66th birthday. 🎂 Happy Birthday, Champ—many happy returns! 🥊🎉

Two different generations of boxing, stepping into the ring together after years of retirement. That's what the fight between Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather Jr. promised, announced in September 2025, and which has yet to materialize.
The original idea had enormous symbolism: it was planned for spring 2026 in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the same country where in 1974 the historic "Rumble in the Jungle" took place between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman.
But in May 2026, everything stopped. Tyson suffered a fracture in his right hand during training, forcing him to postpone the event to the fall of the same year. A medical report at the time confirmed that the injury prevented him from competing, although a subsequent statement from the same doctor clarified that it is no longer an obstacle to fighting in September.
On August 21, in an interview with the "The Close" program on Bloomberg Television, Tyson broke his silence.
💬 "My hand is fine," Tyson said about his recovery.
And he confirmed that the project, contrary to what many thought, has not been canceled.
💬 "I'm still standing. I'm very eager," he said.
He also spoke, with his characteristic humor, about a recent encounter with his future opponent.
💬 "I saw the champion the other day. He looked good... well, I don't know, but he looked good," Tyson said.
The contrast between the two boxers is part of what generates so much anticipation. Tyson, 60 years old, represents the brutality of the heavyweights of the 80s and 90s. Mayweather, 49 years old and with an undefeated record of 50 wins without a loss, represents the perfect defense of the modern boxing era.
This is an exhibition, not an official fight, so it will not affect either of their professional records. Nevertheless, it would be the second time that Tyson has returned to the ring in front of the cameras after his fight against Jake Paul in 2024, when he was 58 years old.
To this day, Tyson's official page still lists the fight as "2026, date to be confirmed," without a specific date. After almost a full year of delays, the intention of both parties seems intact, although the facts have not yet confirmed it.
Do you think this fight will actually happen this time, or will it end up being postponed again?

Jason Statham: "He actually did kick me so far. He's very, very strong and he's tall and he weighs I don't know, 250 pounds, probably more. And so when someone gives you a kick, you do go flying... We only did that scene once. I said we better get this right the first time because I don't want to be standing in front of you being kicked around anymore... you're completely topless and there's no room to put any pads," Statham declared about his fight scene with Semmy Schilt in "Transporter 3" (2008).
Statham wasn't talking about just any stunt double: by the time of filming, Schilt was already a three-time world kickboxing champion in the heavyweight division (K-1 World Grand Prix 2005, 2006, and 2007), the only fighter in that competition's history to win the title three years in a row.
Years later he would add a fourth title in 2009, cementing himself as one of the most decorated kickboxers of all time.
The reason they set out to film that shot only once was simple: Statham appeared shirtless in the scene, which meant he couldn't wear any kind of hidden padding under his clothing, leaving him completely exposed to the real impact of every kick Schilt threw.
To hold his own at that level, Statham arrived with a solid physical foundation of his own: a former platform diver at Olympic-level competition before turning to film, on top of years of training in mixed martial arts for his action roles.
That combination of a world kickboxing champion's real power and Statham's genuine physical resilience ended up shaping one of the most memorable fight scenes in the entire "Transporter" saga.

At 60, Sylvester Stallone decided to do something that even his own wife considered a bad idea: to get back in the ring and become Rocky Balboa again.
It had been 30 years since the first movie, and 16 years since Rocky V, a film that Stallone acknowledged had disappointed the public. The original producers didn't even want a sixth movie. For them, Rocky was already finished.
But Stallone couldn't let the story stand as is.
During a 2006 promotional event for Rocky Balboa, he was asked what drove him to return. Stallone replied:
—“The fear of not being able to give the character a better ending was even more important to me than a possible failure.”
He then shared something even more personal:
—“My wife was afraid I would do this movie. She would tell me not to do it, that I would make a fool of myself at my age.”
📌 (Sylvester Stallone, interview with Dark Horizons, 2006)
But Stallone was 60 years old and knew perfectly well that his body no longer responded like it did when he first played Rocky, but he was determined to make the movie.
The training was extremely hard. He himself said that what had happened 30 years ago was now “rusted” and that he suffered injuries to his ribs, hands, and foot.
But there was a coincidence that made it even more impactful: the same discussion that Stallone was going through in real life became the central conflict of the movie.
In Rocky Balboa, those around the former champion didn't want him to return to the ring at his age. They considered that his best days were over and that facing a much younger boxer again could either ruin his legacy or cause serious harm.
In real life, Stallone was facing the same question: should a 60-year-old man return to the ring?
And yet, Stallone didn't want Rocky to look like a man who had simply returned to the gym. He wanted to show that he was capable of stepping back into the ring at his age.
To get back into shape, he trained 5 days a week with weights and even dedicated 3 to 4 hours a day, 6 days a week, to boxing. He also increased his diet to achieve a physique that looked believable as a former heavyweight.
The result was a 60-year-old Stallone surprisingly muscular and defined, far from the image of a man who had simply returned to act a character from the past.
But the most important thing wasn't his muscles or the fight scenes. It was the meaning of that return.
Rocky wasn't coming back to prove he was still young. Stallone wasn't either. He was coming back because, after so many years, he still felt something was left to be achieved and it would hurt more not to try than to fail.
And that idea is summed up in one of the most memorable scenes of Rocky Balboa, when Rocky talks to his son and explains that life isn't about hitting harder than others, but about holding on when things start to go wrong:
"Life will hit you as hard as you can imagine. And it doesn't matter how hard you hit, but how much you can hold on and keep going, that's how you win"
That scene is even more meaningful when you remember that Stallone was living something similar off-screen. At 60, many thought Rocky had already passed his prime. His wife didn't want him to make the movie, the producers said it would be a failure, and his own body no longer responded like it did decades ago.
But he came back anyway.
Not to prove that time had passed, but to prove that aging doesn't mean stopping fighting for what still matters to you, and maybe that's why Rocky Balboa works so well.
Because Stallone didn't just reprise his role as Rocky. At 60, he was fighting for an opportunity, just like that unknown Rocky from 1976 who just wanted to prove he could make it to the end.
