Carmouche (13-6) made MMA history when she was in the UFC’s first ever female fight when she headlined UFC 157 back in February 2013. Early on, Carmouche had Ronda Rousey in a bit of trouble, locking her in a standing rear-naked choke/face crank. But the UFC Hall of Famer escaped and won the thrilling affair late in the first round. Join DAZN and watch more than 100 fight nights a year...

As previously mentioned, Pokemon is a series that dates back well over two decades. In that time numerous pieces of physical media and merchandise have been produced for the masses, though some are definitely valued higher than others. For example, a single rare Pokemon card was sold at auction for $90,000.

The country’s power grid operator Ukrenergo said on Telegram that the scale of damage from attacks overnight “is comparable or may exceed” the destruction from an attack that took place between October 10 and 12.

Leicester’s amazing journey finally ends The Argentine has fallen down the pecking order at the King Power Stadium this season, and was linked with a move away in January.

Ulloa has since deleted the social media message and has been brought back into the fold by new boss Craig Shakespeare....

Ramos handed the former world number one a code violation for coaching after a gesture from Patrick Mouratoglou in the player’s box, angering Williams, who asserted she does not “cheat”. With the American trailing in the second set, she was issued a point penalty for smashing a racquet and responding by branding the official a “liar” and a “thief” resulted in her being docked a game. Boos rang out inside Arthur Ashe Stadium following the decision, with a furious Williams calling for the match referee and alleging the situation would have been handled differently if she were a man....

Instead, Dorries says, “Games companies and platforms need to do more to ensure that controls and age restrictions are applied....

Discussions of racism and hooliganism in the two host countries featured widely in the British media in the run-up to the tournament, while former England defender Sol Campbell warned that fans risked coming back “in a coffin”. The brother of black England player Theo Walcott cited fears of racism as the reason Walcott’s family would not travel to Euro 2012. Speaking after England beat Ukraine 1-0 here Tuesday, Hodgson labelled the debate “the biggest negativity in England” and said that it had diminished the team’s travelling support....

Vadym Prystaiko, Kyiv’s ambassador to the U.K., told Newsweek in an interview at the Ukrainian embassy in London that the French president’s visit was not received well. “What bothers many Ukrainians is that he went to Moscow first, and then with prepared notes came to Ukraine,” Prystaiko said. While reaffirming Western opposition to more than 100,000 Russian troops massed around Ukraine’s borders, Macron also hinted that the West must consider Moscow’s concerns that Kyiv might one day be allowed to join NATO....

As Russia’s invasion of Ukraine escalated again this week, Ukraine’s Air Force Command claimed its air defenses shot down two Iranian-made drones launched from Belarus as part of the string of deadly strikes Moscow ordered against Ukraine. Russia launched dozens of missile strikes across Ukraine early Monday, pounding civilian areas and knocking out power and heat in multiple Ukrainian cities. Ahead of reports that drones were coming from Belarus, Lukashenko, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, said that Russia and Belarus had already begun forming a “joint regional group of troops” after claiming Ukraine was planning a strike on Belarus, without citing evidence....

The Iberian nation played out dull and dreary draws against Ukraine and Serbia at home, meaning that the former stole a march on them, a run that has propelled the Ukrainians to the perch of the Group B table. Under the tutelage of Andriy Shevchenko, they’ve strung together five consecutive victories, finding the back of the net 13 times and conceding just a solitary goal across those games. More impressively though, Ukraine have been in stupendous form over the past couple of years, having lost only five times with the legendary former striker at the helm....

Philately captured a naval moment marking the start of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion on February 24. Since then Russia has been dominating the waters that lap much of Ukraine’s southern coast despite a headline-grabbing and morale boosting strike two months ago.

Russia denied this, saying that the vessel sank after a fire on board that detonated ammunition....

The Ukrainian military said such combat exercises are vital because “the sweat of the artillery protects the blood of the infantry.” The Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs said Wednesday: “Artillerymen of the brigade of the Northern Operational Territorial Association of NSU (National Guard) continue to improve their skills in combat shooting with MT-12 ‘Rapira’ anti-tank guns. “They are usually called ‘gods of war.’ After all, artillery destroys enemy structures, equipment and manpower and, most importantly, supports the actions of its comrades on the battlefield....
