Canelo Álvarez beat previously unbeaten Christian Mbilli by unanimous decision (117-110, 116-111, 115-112) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to win the WBC super middleweight title. It was his first fight since Terence Crawford took his four super middleweight belts last year.
U.S. District Judge April Perry in Chicago rejected McDonald's bid to dismiss a proposed class action claiming the McRib is shaped and marketed like ribs but contains no rib meat. Consumer deception, fraud and unjust enrichment claims proceed; five other claims were dismissed. The ruling does not find that McDonald's misled anyone. McDonald's denies the claims and says the McRib is made with 100% pork from U.S. farmers and suppliers.
No. 3 Georgia beat No. 17 Florida 27-8 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, where the rivalry moved this year while Jacksonville's EverBank Stadium is renovated. Georgia forced four turnovers, including Chris Cole's 66-yard fumble return for a touchdown, and has now won six straight in the series.
