Next UFC title contender revealed
Following his win over former titlist Dominick Cruz at UFC 249 last night, Henry Cejudo announced his retirement. In response to the surprising career move, UFC president Dana White announced that Petr Yan will be the next bantamweight title challenger, taking on an as yet unknown opponent for the vacant belt.

Devs - the most original TV show in years
Devs – the most original TV show in years
Although my early impression, my instant reaction to Devs is that it is a visionary piece of escapism.
Sci-fi show Devs which is playing on BBC iPlayer has very clear influences but it feels completely new and fresh.
I was gripped by the first episode. The writers take similar concepts to Black Mirror and injects them with David Lynch style surrealism, ethereal visuals and a haunting but…

First thoughts on 'We Happy Few'
First thoughts on ‘We Happy Few’
Something a little different today. I am playing We Happy Few for the first time and I thought I would give you my first thoughts as I play through. Straight away I love the art style and this world that feels both unique and familiar at the same time. You can really empathise with the main character’s feelings of disillusionment. He wants out of this system that has him removing any non-sanitised…

Fiction's great villains
Fiction’s great villains
The villain can sometimes be the most engaging character in a story. Some villains have a David Bowie-esque flamboyance and flair, a Shakespearean grasp of language and a comedian’s ability to make you laugh.
However, they must also be able to inspire fear or their role in the story falls down.
Villains that strike this balance just right include: Dr Hannibal Lecter, The Joker, Professor James…

The greatness of Sugar Ray Leonard
GREATNESS is a word that is thrown around a lot in sports these days but ‘Sugar’ Ray Leonard is one of the fighters that truly lived up to it.
A lot of fighters/athletes have a dose of greatness and a lot of them have a dose of special. It can come out at certain times more than others. That glow that surrounds them, when even the lighter guys become a giant for a moment in time.
Ray Leonard was…

#Training update - Time to get better
#Training update – Time to get better
TIME out from competition can be a good thing. Sometimes you need to give yourself chance to breath, enjoy training and develop in your own time without an immediate deadline.
And that’s where I am at the minute. I only came back to combat sports in February but since then I’ve had 4 boxing bouts.
My next fight will be on the home show, Clash of the Titans on April 4. Now is a good time to…
