Tupac Shakur murder verdict closes a 30-year inquiry

Duane “Keffe D” Davis was found guilty of murder in Tupac Shakur’s 1996 killing, marking the first conviction tied to the case after three decades. Prosecutors leaned on Davis’s confessions, including from his 2019 memoir, showing a retaliation motive after a dispute involving his nephew. Fans reacted with a mix of relief and reflection on Shakur’s impact, while acknowledging lingering questions and prior conspiracy theories. Davis faces sentencing in October and could receive at least 40 years in prison.

Devin Haney narrowly defeats Vasiliy Lomachenko in title defense.

Devin Haney retained his undisputed 135-pound championship in a close, but unanimous decision against Vasiliy Lomachenko at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Haney survived a vintage performance from his 35-year-old opponent, who rallied in the second half of the fight. Haney landed the cleaner punches, particularly those to Lomachenko's body, and won the decisive 12th round on all three cards. The victory could set up a massive showdown with either Gervonta Davis or Shakur Stevenson, if Haney decides to stay at 135 pounds.

Controversy Surrounds Haney-Lomachenko Fight Decision and Promoter's Recording

Top Rank boss Bob Arum was caught on a recording telling Vasiliy Lomachenko and his manager that they "easily" won the fight against Devin Haney, despite Haney retaining his undisputed lightweight world title in a unanimous decision victory at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The fight was difficult to score, with both boxers having pockets of dominance, but most analysts and fans had it closer than the judges' scores. Haney may now face Shakur Stevenson in his next fight.
