Kia ora, Talofa, Ma’lelei, Bula, Aloha and Welcome to Season 09 Episode 44 of Breakfast Bites, by TEIVOVOdigital.com – a wrap of Pasifika people’s sports news, on a sunny and bright Monday morning 20 May 2024.
Happy Birthday Ann!
Coming to you with tons of hanisi from the 180th meridian, in the middle of the blue continent.
In combat sports: Oleksandr Usyk will only be able to call himself undisputed World Heavyweight Boxing Champion for a couple more weeks.
Despite winning “the fight of the century” against Tyson Fury via split decision in Saudi Arabia yesterday, and claiming the Gypsy King’s WBC title, which the Ukranian Warrior added to his WBA, IBF and WBO belts – the first time one man has done so in over 25 years, his status will only last a matter of two weeks.
Boxing journalist Dan Rafael has reported that both Fury and Usyk’s contracts recognised that they must vacate the IBF title ahead of overdue mandatory challenger Filip Hrgovic’s bout with Daniel Dubois on 01 June.
In Rugby: While the Top 4 – Blues, Hurricanes, Brumbies and Chiefs are locked in for the Super Rugby Pacific play-off finals, there is still some wiggle room in the make-up of positions 5 – 8 where the Reds, Highlanders, Force, Drua and Rebels are all in the running.
Our world famous tips for the last two rounds of Super Rugby Pacific 2024:
· The Reds should beat the Force and the Tahs in their remaining two games for fifth
· The Rebels will find it very tough against the Brumbies and the Drua to hang on to sixth
· The Highlanders should be good enough to stay in the Top 8 with games against the Drua at home and the Hurricanes away
· The Force are on a roll, but have two tough games in the Reds away and the Brumbies in Perth
· The Fijian Drua will be lucky to beat the Highlanders in Dunedin, but are good enough to smash the Rebels in Lautoka
So our tip for 5th are the Reds, 6th Highlanders, the Fijian Drua in 7th and the Rebels to finish 8th.
In rugby league: Results from the last day of NRL Magic Round at Suncorp yesterday: The New Zealand Warriors 22-20 Penrith Panthers, the Melbourne Storm 48-16 Parramatta Eels and in the last game of magic round - Wests Tigers fell to the Dolphins 24-12.
In Super Netball: Giants star Jamie-Lee Price has become the first player sent-off under Super Netball’s new no-warning suspension rules in her side’s 76-52 loss to the NSW Swifts yesterday.
The Giants co-captain lasted just eight minutes before being sent from the court for dangerous play, leaving her team a woman down for two minutes.
Super Netball’s newest team, the Melbourne Mavericks nabbed their second win of the season - sinking the Queensland Firebirds 62-69.
The star of the show and match MVP was experienced Jamaican, Shimona Jok who finished with 52 goals from 57 shots.
And finally, Liz Watson led her new team, Sunshine Coast Lightning, to a bittersweet 64-57 win over her former side, the Melbourne Vixens.
And that’s a wrap!
