Anthony Smith suffers TKO loss in post-arrest return at Gamebred

Former UFC light-heavyweight contender Anthony Smith lost by TKO in his first fight since a July felony arrest. The bout, part of a $500,000 tournament in the Dominican Republic, ended in the second round after Smith was taken down and struck repeatedly. This marks his second appearance for Gamebred, following a stoppage win in April. Smith, who pleaded not guilty to charges including terroristic threats and false imprisonment, was granted travel permission by a court to compete. The loss extends his recent losing streak, with commentators noting his declining form since his 2025 retirement from the UFC.

Trump Image on $1 Coin Tests Currency Rules and Tradition

The U.S. Mint released a $1 coin bearing Donald Trump's image to celebrate 250 years of American heritage, despite an 1866 rule banning living people on U.S. currency; supporters cite historical exceptions and the case remains legally unsettled as critics argue it's illegal, while a federal judge declined to block the coin and roughly 9 million coins are being minted and sold for about $61 per 25 coins.

Seahawks Weigh Risk-Reward of Adding Controversial CB Terrion Arnold

The Seattle Seahawks reportedly have shown interest in free-agent cornerback Terrion Arnold, who is facing felony charges of armed robbery and kidnapping in Florida. Arnold has drawn interest from several teams, including a Texans workout and upcoming visits, with a potential signing within about 45 days. If added, he could help Seattle’s cornerback depth, but his off-field case poses questions about discipline, availability, and impact on the locker room.

Judge questions legality of Bondi's three-person control of NJ U.S. Attorney's Office

A federal judge in Newark spent three hours evaluating whether Attorney General Pam Bondi's three-person leadership of the New Jersey U.S. Attorney's Office—established after Alina Habba stepped down—meets constitutional and Senate-confirmation norms. The judge pressed whether this unprecedented “triumvirate” can wield office powers indefinitely, with potential implications for federal vacancies and the DOJ; a ruling is expected by February.
