Description

Bula, Ma’lelei, Talofa and Welcome to Season 07 Episode 39 of Breakfast Bites, by TeivovoSports.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news, on a bright and sunny Thursday morning 09 November 2023.Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian in the middle of the Blue Continent. In rugby league: Tonga went nuts against England in their third Test last weekend. Manly Sea Eagles gun outside back Tolutau Koula was hit with a high tackle charge, South Sydney Rabbitohs dummy half and lock forward Siliva Havili was pulled up for striking, and Wests Tigers star recruit Latu Fainu was cited for a dangerous throw in what was a firey clash that saw England win 26-4 to complete a 3-0 series victory.Another three Tongan players: Keaon Koloamatangi, Felise Kaufusi and Moeaki Fotuaika received cautions from the clash, for dangerous contact.In football: UEFA Champions League Round 3 games today: Dortmund 2-0 Newcastle, Shakhtar Donetsk 1-0 Barcelona, Atlético de Madrid 6-0 Celtic, Lazio 1-0 Feyenoord, Milan 2-1 PSG, Man City 3-0 Young Boys, Crvena zvezda 1-2 Leipzig and Porto 2-0 Antwerp.In combat sports: The WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO World Heavyweight Champion, Oleksandr Usyk is hoping his fight with Tyson Fury will now take place in Saudi Arabia in February 2024 once the Briton has recovered from a bruising 10 rounds vs Francis Ngannou. Both the Ukrainian and Fury are unbeaten.Speaking to Reuters from his training camp in Valencia, Spain, Usyk said the date should be decided next week."I was ready to fight on the 23rd but since Fury got some injuries in the last fight, a knockdown, then probably it will be postponed to next year."A proposed 23 December date in Riyadh looks sure to slide since WBC Champion Fury's near-defeat to former UFC champion Ngannou on 28 October.The long-awaited on-off fight would crown the first undisputed champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999."Technically, nothing changes. I just have a little more time for some additional tasks, and that's it," Usyk said.In SportsBiz: OK so which franchise has the richest owners in the NFL?The Denver Broncos dummy – where Rob Walton, the 79-year-old Walmart heir with a net worth of US$70Billion recently transferred controlling ownership to his son-in-law, Greg Penner.And midway through their second season in charge, after they paid US$4.65B for the Broncos in 2022, they continue to invest their personal funds into the franchise.Their latest plans include a new US$175Million training facility and team headquarters that is expected to open before the 2026 NFL season. Ahead of this season, the Broncos unveiled US$100M of upgrades to Empower Field at Mile High and before the 2022 season finale, the owners paid US$400,000 to install a new playing surface for just one game.And finally in rugby union: The Emirates Dubai 7s returns on 2-3 December as the opening round of HSBC SVNS 2024, featuring the top 12 men’s and 12 women’s rugby 7s teams in the world.New Zealand begin the defence of their men’s and women’s 2023 titles, while South Africa men and Australia women look to repeat their victories at The Sevens Stadium last December.The new look HSBC SVNS 2024 series features seven regular season events plus a Grand Final with promotion and relegation at stake.The men’s competition sees 2023 champions New Zealand, who were winners in Sydney, Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Singapore and Toulouse last year, headline Pool A alongside Canada, last year’s Cape Town winners Samoa and the defending Emirates Dubai 7s champions South Africa.Hamilton, Vancouver and London winners from last season, Argentina, are in Pool B and will face Spain, Australia and Ireland in Dubai, while double Olympic gold medal winners Fiji will face France, USA and Great Britain in Pool C.In the women’s competition, the New Zealand Black Ferns, who won six of seven tournaments to claim their seventh series title, headline Pool A alongside Fiji, Great Britain and the World Rugby Sevens Challenger Series 2023 champions So
