It’s a unification match, with powerful Sergey Kovalev the opponent in Atlantic City, N.J. Age? Hopkins is the oldest boxing champion on record, and said this week in announcing the bout he isn’t interested in acting his age. “It’s only a nice round number when you’re my 50,” Hopkins said Wednesday in New York. “But if you happen to be anyone else’s 50, you might not say that. Fifty is not a nice round number because everyone may not feel the same way you do....
Now, around 3.6 million Americans could be evicted from their homes starting Monday. Democratic leaders such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are asking for the eviction ban to go back into effect through Oct. 18 until the funds are received by renters and landlords that are owed the money. “No landlord should evict without seeking that rental assistance, and states and localities need to get that money out urgently, and they can do that,” said Brian Deese, the head of the White House National Economic Council, during an appearance on “Fox News Sunday....
The Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) repeal of the rules allowed internet service providers to once again slow or block websites and apps or charge companies more for faster speeds to consumers. More than 22 million comments resulted from the repeal proceedings, 18 million of which the attorney general’s office found were fabricated. Broadband for America, an industry group, spent $4.2 million generating more than half of the fake FCC comments, and a half-million fake letters were sent to Congress, according to the attorney general....
A CBS News/YouGov poll of more than 2,500 U.S. adults released Sunday found that white Americans’ reactions to the Chauvin verdict were “largely related to partisanship.” About 9 in 10 Democrats surveyed said Chauvin’s conviction on all three counts—second-degree murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter—was the “right” decision. The 75 percent of independent voters who agreed it was the right verdict directly corresponded to the overall response from Americans. Eighty-two percent of people who identify as political moderates said they agree the guilty verdict was the right decision....

Nebraska coaches Tim Miles, Jim Molinari and Kenya Hunter got in on the action after they were nominated by ESPN’s Dana O’Neil. The challenge goes like this: once nominated or called out by someone who completed the challenge, you have 24 hours to douse yourself with a bucket of ice water or you have to donate $100. Seems kind of silly and counterintuitive, right? According to the Associated Press, it’s boosted donations to the ALS Association by 1,000%....
Nebraska (ranked No. 13) is also still in contention for a final four berth in the College Football Playoff, although it would require running the table through the Big Ten title game at a minimum.

Beyond celebration, however, their comments called for more, bigger attacks targeting critical infrastructure on U.S. soil. Experts told Newsweek that the attack in Moore County, North Carolina, as well as in similar previous attacks across the country, may only be the start of a more destructive campaign. Prior to Saturday’s attacks and in the leadup to the midterm election, Newsweek obtained documents demonstrating dozens of instances of radical groups and individuals sharing threats online against critical infrastructure sites across the nation, along with materials designed to advance such plots....

With Valentine’s Day in the middle of the month, you might expect romantic movies to dominate the list, but that is not the case—streaming subscribers were just as likely to watch a movie about a chainsaw-wielding maniac this month, or the very unromantic Tinder Swindler, about a man who pretends to fall in love with women in order to con tens of thousands of dollars out of them. There were some, however, who wanted a little romance....
The Dutch defeated North Macedonia, Austria and Ukraine on the road to the Euro Round of 16, but those teams aren’t exactly elite. And every group match was played at home in Amsterdam. In fact, sportsbooks aren’t even ranking Frank de Boer’s team in the top five nations most likely to win Euro 2021. A convincing victory at the Puskas Arena in Budapest against a Czech Republic team that played England close (1-0 loss) and tied Croatia (1-1) could win over a few more of those skeptics who still aren’t sure whether the Netherlands men’s team is back after failing to qualify for Euro 2016 and the 2018 FIFA World Cup....
Irving, who joined the Nets as a free agent in the offseason, made headlines this week when he claimed after a loss that the team had “glaring” needs.

“Creating a record that could be viewed by appropriate parties, if necessary, might be the best way to urge teachers to stick to traditional teaching,” Karen England, executive director and founder of the Nevada Family Alliance, said in a statement released on Wednesday. “We expect that the teachers’ unions will reject this proposal immediately,” England continued. “But we should ask, what they have to hide?
