Description

The ROADMAP: 3:07 - Sports Betting Rumble — Dan Wallach returns to the podcast to fill us in on the heated debate at the center of the Sports Betting industry that has kept him away from the show. As more states are inclined to legalize, it’s the nuance in state law that is complicated the timeframe. All eyes are on Florida now as haymakers are being thrown all around. Wallach - THE Sports Betting Guru - gives us both sides of the argument. 18:00 - Tyson Fury v. Deontay Wilder Arbitration. The legal dispute at the center of the heavyweight boxing world centers on whether Wilder had a valid and enforceable rematch clause in his contract after losing to Fury in February 2020. Tyson Fury had a title bout scheduled against a different fighter, Anthony Joshua, but those talks are now on hold based on the Arbitrator’s decision. We explain what legal rights Wilder and Fury have post-Arbitration. 32:18 - MLBPA $500M’s Grievance. Rob Manfred: MLB was set on 60-game 2020 season 'no matter how negotiations with players went' ... "The reality is," Manfred said, "we weren't going to play more than 60 games no matter how the negotiations with the players went." Manfred's statement is at the heart of the union’s allegation that the league intentionally delayed the 2020 season to force them into only 60 games— costing players millions in revenue from a shortened season. A massive chip when it comes to the renegotiation of the MLB Collective Bargaining Agreement when it expires in December. 39:45 - Bob Baffert is sued by bettors in California Federal Court for allegedly cheating in the Kentucky Derby. With a loss in the Preakness and a fresh ban from the Belmont Stakes— things are trending the wrong direction for Baffert. We breakdown the merits of the bettors’ case, whether we expect more to join the class-action against Baffert, and the lasting impact on Horse Racing. 48:09 - Dan Lust is the new Sports Law Professor at New York Law School. Here’s the story of how it happened. *** Have a question or something you want us to cover next episode?
