Tonight, Tyson Fury is scheduled to take on Deonte Wilder for the world heavyweight championship. This is the third fight between the two boxers, since back in 2018. The second fight, which took place in February 2020, was an excellent event and this one is sure to be too! But since this fight was originally scheduled to take place back in June, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s canceled or going to be. The delay was because Fury tested positive for COVID-19, but this time around, there’s nothing stopping the event!

Is it canceled? Absolutely not. Is it going to go down in heavyweight history? Yes, it is. If you’re not already aware, the fight is scheduled to take place at 9 p.m. ET at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Fury vs. Wilder 3 is the main event, which will be the final fight of the night. Taking place before that are three other fights, including the Continental Americas heavyweight championship between Efe Ajagba and Frank Sanchez. The best way to watch is through ESPN+ on your platform of choice, whether that’s mobile, desktop, a smart TV, a media player, or even a game console. You will need an active subscription to the service along with a Fury vs. Wilder 3 PPV ticket.

Joshua vs. Usyk PPV Price: How Much Will It Cost?
Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk presser with two opponents meeting face to face.

Glove-to-glove, Anthony Joshua and Ukraine's Oleksandr Usyk face-off is a bout that's sure to go down in the history books. AJ will defend his WBO, IBF, IBO, and WBA heavyweight world titles in London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Many believed he would be up against Tyson Fury, but instead, Usyk is his WBO mandatory challenger. You can tune in to the fight live, online, and via several streaming devices thanks to DAZN, but because this is a pay-per-view event, the costs may be a little confusing, so here's the all-important Joshua vs Usky PPV price if you're tuning in to the Joshua vs Usyk live stream from the US!

Matchroom Boxing events are available to stream live exclusively through DAZN here in the U.S., so you'll need to sign up before you can watch. Unlike some PPV services, you can't subscribe to specific events, but you can sign up for a single month -- although the better deal is to sign up for a year, at the least. New subscribers will pay $20 per month, with the option to cancel at any time. Or, you can sign up for a full year at $100, which saves you about $140 in total. You can sign up now to watch the Joshua vs Usyk fight on compatible TV streaming platforms, mobile, tablets, computers, or game consoles like Xbox One and PlayStation. If you'd rather wait, you can sign up at any time, up until the fight kicks off. Wait longer than that, and you'll miss the fight!

Everything points to Apple TV+ making a change you’re not going to like
Is an ad-supported tier coming to Apple TV+?

It turns out that TV worked pretty well under its old model. According to a new report from Business Insider, Apple TV+ may be the latest streaming service that's set to introduce an ad-supported tier and charge those who don't stream with ads a premium fee to access their great shows and movies.

At this point, the report is still speculation, but Apple has made several recent hires in the advertising space that seem to suggest the direction they're planning to take. The company recently hired former NBCUniversal ad executive Joseph Cady to serve as executive vice president of advanced advertising and partnerships, a move that comes following the company's hiring of another former NBCUniversal executive, Jason Frum, who joined Apple's video ad sales team.

From Gilda Radner to Ali Wong, these are the best female comedians of all time
These women from all generations will make you laugh out loud

Hot take: I don’t care for straight male comedians. It’s not that they’re not funny, they’re just … I don’t know, boring? Maybe that’s reductive of me, but I never seem to leave a straight male comedian’s set feeling particularly inspired. And though some may argue that it’s not important for a set to "inspire" its audience, I’d actually argue that the opposite is true. For me, I want to see a comedian use humor to address real issues and say real things about the world, even if they do it in a completely goofy way.

Therefore, I tend to prefer female and female-identified comedians. They’re sharp, tough, and have often seen shit that makes their comedy feel raw and true. Undoubtedly there are male comedians who do this, too, but to a much lesser degree, in my very humble and very personal opinion.
