The numbers behind Mbappé’s contract are even more eye-popping when you compare it to:· US$531M: LeBron James’ all-time NBA earnings· US$494M: Patrick Mahomes’ NFL deal through 2031· US$367M: The New York Mets MLB entire payroll· US$332M: Tom Brady’s all-time NFL earnings· US$157M: Tiger Woods’ career PGA earnings All pale in comparison. In rugby league: The Daily Telegraph is reporting that the Rugby League Players Association’s media boycott has backfired, because players are unsure what they are supposed to be striking about, and what’s even more farcical, the RLPA put the media boycott on and the players are still happily talking to journalists. Rugby Leagus boss, Peter V’landys claims the RLPA is power hungry, as negotiations move past 20 months. In combat Sports: In his first fight at 55.3Kg, Japanese boxing superstar, Naoya ‘Monster’ Inoue tortured WBC and WBO Super Bantamweight Champion Stephen ‘Cool Boy’ Fulton for eight rounds, before putting him out of his misery with a brutal stoppage in Tokyo to become a four-division world champion and unified the Super Bantamweight World Champion while moving to 25-0 with 21 by KO.
