Power Slap, led by Dana White, is the the world’s premier slap fighting organization. It is licensed and sanctioned by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, which recently suspended six competitors.
When Power Slap made its debut earlier this year, viewers were equally as horrified as intrigued.

Dana White’s ‘Power Slap’ League Makes Bonkers Debut, Leaves Viewers Horrified

The concept is not hard to grasp. Two competitors trade full-hand slaps back and forth until one cannot continue.

It leads to some crazy results.

The Bengals picked up quarterback Joe Burrow’s fifth-year contract option, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported on Tuesday.
The fifth-year option will guarantee Burrow $29.5 million in 2024, which is quite the jump from the $1.01 million he will earn in base salary this upcoming season, according to Spotrac.
This news didn’t come as much of a surprise since Cincinnati seems to be set on keeping Burrow in-house for the foreseeable future.

Bucks center Meyers Leonard was fired up from the bench against the Heat after a big three-pointer in Game 4, only, it wasn’t Milwaukee who was on the scoring end.
Leonard could be seen lifting his arms in the air after Caleb Martin hit a three for Miami, before quickly realizing that he was rooting for his former team rather than his current one. He then sat back down and put his hand on his chin, seemingly embarrassed over his sideline gaffe. 
Milwaukee signed Leonard to a 10-day deal before eventually extending him a contract offer for the rest of the season in March.

The Pirates and outfielder Bryan Reynolds have agreed to an eight-year, $106.75 million extension, sources confirmed to ESPN.

With the hiring of Ime Udoka as head coach, the Rockets add a coach who left his last job due to an internal investigation over workplace misconduct.
Last September, the Celtics suspended Udoka as the team’s coach after he had an “improper intimate and consensual relationship” with a woman on staff. It was later reported that Udoka used crude language with a subordinate before the improper relationship, and that the power dynamic between Udoka and the subordinate in the relationship was a major violation.

Injuries set off a domino effect that left fans baffled. Here are four reasons Boston hasn’t gone off the rails (yet).

Bill Belichick doesn’t need to find the next Tom Brady, but he needs to hit on multiple difference-makers to avoid a sorry end to a legendary career.

With the NFL draft just days away, there’s been a significant shift in mock drafts across the media landscape and one NFL star called out the falling stock of one top prospect.
Cowboys outside linebacker Micah Parsons took to Twitter on Tuesday and commented on a video where ESPN analyst Robert Griffin III expressed his confusion as to why Ohio State’s CJ Stroud is someone who isn’t a lock in the first two picks of Thursday’s draft. 
“It’s no coincidence! They did the same thing with Justin fields!” Parsons said on Twitter.

The Green Bay Packers got more for quarterback Aaron Rodgers than most thought they would. That’s true. People assumed that the Packers had no choice but to acquiesce Rodgers’ demand to go to New York, but that wasn’t exactly true. But to say the Packers “fleeced” the Jets, like ESPN’s Robert Griffin III (RGIII) did, is a bit over-the-top.
Sports media discuss trade “winners and losers” relative to expectations. The expectation was that the Packers needed to get rid of Rodgers and would take what they could get from the Jets.

Brady Allen has entered the transfer portal. It’s déjà vu all over again.
The 19-year-old was in this exact same position just four months ago. His decision to return to the portal is the perfect example of the new reality within college football.
Allen, a four-star recruit in the Class of 2022, was Indiana’s Mr. Football in 2021 and chose to stay home and play for Purdue. He committed to the Boilermakers in July before his junior year and stuck with his decision over offers from Cincinnati, Indiana, Kansas, Rutgers, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
