That is according to Canelo’s promoter Oscar de la Hoya, who, like the rest of the boxing world, is gearing up for Saturday’s highly anticipated rematch between the middleweight duo. MORE: Join DAZN and watch the Joshua-Povetkin fight for free The initial bout in Sept. 2017 ended in a controversial draw, before a second fight had to be postponed when Canelo tested positive for clenbuterol, a finding he put down to contaminated meat eaten in his homeland....

Canelo Alvarez (54-1-2, 36 KOs) will put his WBA, WBC and The Ring super middleweight titles on the line against Avni Yildirim (21-2, 12 KOs) on Saturday. It’s a quick turnaround for Alvarez, who defeated Callum Smith less than three months ago. Yildirim, meanwhile, last fought in February 2019 when he lost to Anthony Dirrell via technical split decision. Will Canelo continue his run of dominance as expected? Or can Yildirim pull off a major upset?...

The History of Cannabis Cannabis is believed to have originated in Mongolia and southern Siberia, although some maintain that the plant could be found in the early years in South Asia, Afghanistan, and the Huang River Valley in northern China. Professor Ernest Abel believed that the plant was among one of the first widely cultivated in the world and is over 12,000 years old. Ancient cultures used cannabis for its medicinal properties....

Amid rumors and leaks for Resident Evil 9, Capcom is hard at work to create remakes and upgrades for existing titles, which is great news for fans that own next-generation consoles and would love to relive the adventures from previous games in the franchise. So, the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 3, and Resident Evil 7: Biohazard are all welcome editions to the “upgraded for next-gen consoles” library of games made available in the last couple of years....

Newsom was in Washington this week, but he wasn’t conferring with John Kerry or anybody else outside of the California delegation. “Politicians aren’t lining up to see me or meet me,” he concedes. Backstage at the Radio and Television Correspondents Association dinner on Wednesday, Democratic House leader Nancy Pelosi introduced the 36-year-old gay-marriage maven to President George W. Bush. “I won’t be coming out there,” Bush chuckled, allowing that being mayor of San Francisco must be a tough job....

Bashing Bush for playing fighter pilot gives Democrats a momentary sugar high, but it’s a downer for the party. “We look petty, and we’re way off message,” says the strategist. “We should be roasting them on their tax plan. Instead we’re talking about how much less it would have cost to fly him in a helicopter.” Bush’s Republican defender on TV asserted the cost savings would have been a mere $7....

Naturally present in the human body, probiotics are also found in foods like yogurt, kefir, and certain fermented foods, in addition to dietary supplements. There are more than 400 different strains of probiotics. Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Bifidobacteria are among the strains commonly used for eczema. Oral Probiotics and Eczema Some researchers believe that eczema starts in the gut, meaning that the collective microorganisms that live in the digestive system (the gut microbiome) is out of balance....

This article will explore the various connections between stress and MS, and why study results may not align. In addition, you’ll learn about strategies to help manage stress when living with MS.

Lawrence, who tested positive for COVID-19 last week and will miss his second start when No. 1 Clemson takes on No. 4 Notre Dame on Saturday, is now listed at +200. That creates an interesting juxtaposition. If Lawrence returns and leads the Tigers to another national championship, it could be argued that he is the greatest college football player of all time. He also might have that distinction despite never being a Heisman Trophy finalist....

Yet Bush’s men know better than to try to keep him off the links, so they will try to limit photos of him at play. When Bush and his houseguest, Arnold Palmer, recently helicoptered from Camp David for a round at the posh Caves Valley Golf Club northwest of Baltimore, the White House banned coverage of the president teeing off. Photos were allowed only at the end of the game....

Color blindness is often linked to certain genes. Whether a person is color blind has to do with how the condition is inherited. While most cases of color vision deficiency are the result of genetics, there are also non-genetic causes of color blindness. This article will go over why color blindness happens. You’ll also learn why males and females can be color blind. Color Blindness Genes The genes involved in color blindness are:...

The question is, can you see where the snake is hiding? Tommy Hamrick, an 18-year-old biology student at the University of Florida, took to the Facebook group Rare Encounters Photography to share a snap of the elusive reptile with his fellow animal lovers. Yet, despite sporting some vibrant stripes, the snake in the picture is so well hidden, many may struggle to even see where it is. Hamrick told Newsweek: “I was biking along some back roads with my father when I noticed the bright yellow and red bands poking out from beneath some pine straw....

Oral steroids like prednisone are commonly used to treat IBD, and they carry the potential for a host of side effects. When you have IBD and other inflammatory conditions, it’s natural to have questions about taking prednisone during pregnancy. Managing IBD During Pregnancy It may be that medications for your chronic conditions are clearly needed during pregnancy—for both your health and your baby’s. If your doctor recommends medications like prednisone (corticosteroids), it means they believe the risks of the drug are likely lower than the risk of not taking them....

Most of the time, the cat is doing something that comes naturally, like scratching. It’s something the cat needs to do, just like grooming or burying waste. You don’t want to punish that—you just don’t want your cat to do it there. The squirt bottle might seem to work in that you never see your cat engaging in the problem behavior. But, rest assured, it’s still doing it when you’re not around....

Special forces from Canada will be deployed to help Canadians staffed at Kabul’s embassy evacuate, an official who spoke on condition of anonymity told AP. It was not specified how many special forces will be sent over. The U.K. will send roughly 600 troops temporarily to help people leave Afghanistan, Britain’s ministry of defense said Thursday. The U.S. is sending 3,000 troops to Kabul’s airport, weeks before U.S. involvement is set to end in Afghanistan, to support security and help process some American embassy personnel as they leave the country....

Belgium’s failure to score against Croatia means they are out, while Morocco finished on top and Croatia in second. It’s scenes for the African nation, whose first-half goals from Hakim Ziyech and Youssef En-Nesyri paved the way for all three points. At the other end, Canada once again put forth a spirited effort but came away with nothing, punished for their defensive mistakes yet again. Their lone strike came just before the half via an own goal from Naif Aguerd who deflected a Sam Adekugbe cross into the back of the net....

Good advice, and something the Habs should remember until the final horn at Gila River Arena in Glendale, Ariz. Why? Glad you asked. The Canadiens are 0-2-1 entering the final game of a Western swing. That should be enough to slap them awake … except there is a glow ahead that might distract them. It’s Tuesday’s home game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, a showdown of the best teams in the Eastern Conference....

WePay’s actions followed a series of similar incidents in recent years that includes the cancellation of former president Trump’s personal bank account, Michael Flynn’s credit cards and at least one Christian nonprofit organization. The fossil fuel and firearms industries have been targeted too. Businesses selling controversial materials have had their payments services terminated and consequently shuttered. The decisions to cancel these high-profile individuals or groups are often reversed after public outcry and dismissed as a “mistake” by the providers....

Symptoms of cancer vary widely depending on the type of disease. For instance, a tumor can invade nearby structures and affect their function, or press on nerves (e.g., ovarian cancer may cause constipation by pressing on the colon; lung cancer may cause hoarseness by pressing on a nerve as it travels through the chest). In addition, cancer often causes metabolic changes that result in generalized symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss, and an overall sense of being unwell....

“What me and my siblings got to do was go back to her room and we got to stand outside. And what [hospital staff] did was they take a walkie-talkie and they placed the walkie-talkie right by her bedside on the pillow,” Elijah Ross-Rutter, whose mother Sundee Rutter succumbed to complications from the novel coronavirus March 16, said during an interview on CNN. “We got to say our final words and goodbyes to our mom....
