In 2017, Bjorn Mannsverk's phone rang. A year before, what was meant to be a special 100th anniversary for Bodo/Glimt ended in heartbreak as the Norwegian club were relegated from the top flight. A fresh approach was needed to get the club back on track.

Even after a hiatus that lasted more than a year, Tai Tuivasa's slump continued at UFC 325. The popular Aussie heavyweight struggled to remain upright, dropping a unanimous decision to Tallison Teixeira in a featured bout this past Saturday at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney. It was Tuivasa's sixth consecutive defeat within the Octagon, a skid that dates back to September 2022. "Bam Bam" expressed disappointment in the defeat in a statement released on his Instagram account.
