Harden Wins MVP at NBA Awards, WBA Gives Anthony Joshua 24 Hours to Sign
Deal to Fight Alexander Povetkin and Australia Eliminated from World Cup
The 2018 NBA
Awards were held last night in
Santa Monica, California. James Harden of the Houston Rockets was voted by fans
as the most valuable player after having come second twice. The Associated Press quotes Harden on the win:
“The last four
years have been like knocking on the door, knocking on the door. Now the moment
is finally here,” Harden said backstage. “Just every single year you try to
come back and be better than you were the year before, and just to be holding
that trophy finally, it means a lot.”
Fox Sports reports that
the World Boxing Association (WBA) has given boxer Anthony Joshua 24 hours to
sign a deal to fight Alexander Povetkin or risk losing the WBA portion of his
world heavyweight boxing titles. Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn claimed to be
near agreement in negotiations for Joshua to fight the WBC champion Deontay
Wilder, but were waiting for “clarifications”.
WBA president
Gilberto Mendoza said in a statement: “The WBA have allowed over a month
extension to negotiations with Povetkin and also ongoing discussions with
Deontay Wilder.
“It appears the Wilder team have not returned the contract for the fight and therefore we are requesting a date for the Joshua versus Povetkin fight with immediate effect.”

Peru ended
their eight-game winless streak in the World Cup with a 2-0 victory over
Australia today. The last time Peru had won a World Cup match was 4-1 triumph
over Iran in 1978. Australia has now lost five of their last six, and is now
eliminated from the tournament. FIFA.com quotes
Australia team reporter Sarah Widera on the loss:
“It may be
something of a cliché, but Australia can travel home from this World Cup with
their heads held high. Their elimination will be heartbreaking for their fans,
who had hoped for better things following some positive displays in Russia –
including against Peru, whom they pressed hard without success.”
